My mother-in-law kiss my child lips

My mother-in-law (MIL) is the caregiver of my child and everytime I fetch my child home, she will give a goodbye kiss my MIL. A kiss on the cheeks is ok, but how do I tell my MIL not to kiss on the lips?

Every time you catch him doing it, sit him down and explain to him, patiently and kindly, why it's inappropriate to do. If you're in good terms with your mother-in-law, maybe you two can work out a plan on how to make your child stop

Maybe drop hints? Like in a nice way. Say like 'oh the other day i saw this video whoever kiss the baby and thing happened..' so i think u shouldn't kiss on the lips 😝

Me.. i always give hints to anyone whoever try to touch and kiss my baby... no matter its on lips or any where.. sometimes i'n straighforward in telling them

Perhaps if you are not comfortable with direct confrontation, you can ask your husband to be the messenger

Best thing to do is ask your husband to tell his mom not to do it. It should be your husband telling her

Do not hesitate tell frankly kisses on lips may cause allergy to kids so ask him to avoid it

thanks

Teach ur kids to to do flying kisses instead :)

Say it nicely
