Do you kiss your kids on the lips? I do that but have received stares from strangers and was wondering if I should stop doing it.

I don't get it. They are your kids. Why can't you kiss them on the lips? But I understand that once they reach a certain age they start to feel shy (especially boys) and it becomes socially awkward to kiss mummies or daddies on the lips. You should do it as long as it lasts you! They will outgrow it soon. Since you were on this topic, I do have people I know who refrain themselves from kissing their children on the lips lest they think it's normal and start kissing other adults they meet on their lips. So to prevent others from doing so they deprive themselves of the joy of kissing. Don't you think they're missing out?
