It is completely unnecessary, and frankly bizarre, to show affection to your child by placing your lips against their lips. Luckily I don't see this much anymore...I think millennials are beyond this custom!

As a non-kid-haver I agree but recognize this isnt my lane so my opinion probably doesnt matter here

Never mind kissing on the lips -- I don't think fathers should be alone in the same room as their daughter/s, without their wife present (or another older female)! Nor should sons be in same room alone as their mothers, without their father present (or another older male).

So what made you think about parents kissing their children on the lips?

Probably was thinking about football. The Super bowl is on today. Tom Brady I think is in it... maybe. Not sure. But anyway he kisses his son on the lips

I always thought this was an odd thing to be concerned about. Why is a kiss on the lips any different than a kiss on the cheek, when it's between a parent and child? It's a gesture of familial affection, not romance.

And in the case of an adult kissing a child as a romantic gesture, wouldn't it be just as gross if they kissed them on the cheek or the hand as on the lips? Seems like the issue should be the meaning behind the kiss to me.

CEmen have significant trouble with context.

I guess the social norm is to associate cheek kisses as more platonic more situations then a kiss on the lips

I doubt this is practiced that much in America. The only time I saw it was with Tom Brady and his son.

Maybe as a baby baby. Not as a 3yr old plus.

Some random old lady just randomly kissed my daughter on the lips in the supermarket when she was about 3 months old.

I mean, what the fuck, people
