Isn't it weird when people kiss babies/toddlers in the lips

My sister has just had a baby and my mum and sister etc often kiss her on the lips and they try and get me to do it but I find it weird.

same .... feels like pedophillic. Tell them that you don't want to spread any disease to him cause he is a little kid and starting chatting bull about immunity of babies or just say that you have a sore throat you don't want him to get ill. Always work for me :wink:

Lol u really shouldnt to a newborn cos it can catch things quickly..

But my little cousins of 5, 4 and 1 and a half always get kisses off me on the lips :lol: i dunno; its just cute? :dontknow:
Kissing someone on the lips realy isn't that big of a deal is it?
I've done it with my own kids and it's no big deal, but I wouldn't with other peoples kids, that would just seem too personal.
It's a bit weird if it's not your own kids, like why would you ever need to do it? But I think it shows how paedophilia has been spun up into this massive moral panic. I'm really uneasy even talking to or interacting with little kids as I don't want to come off looking like a creeper

I kiss my daughter on the lips.
v weird. no justifying it.
Yeah if I'm completely honest, I'm on the line between educated and a slight germophobe, and something tells me that all this kissing malrky doesn't really help things. Babies and children seem to be a source of spreading viruses in this manner, although it's not their fault.

And yeah - it is a bit pedo. The reverse is when ya granny tries to kiss you on the lips at social functions. What a strange thing to do. Unless I'm the only one that happens to.

Kissing babaies/young nonhuman animals on their foreheads is adorable! <3

Kissing a child on the lips seems quite strange.

This is weird.. I assume you're older than 8.. if so then thats very worrying, should be reported to the police tbh.

It makes me uncomfortable ngl and I come from a culture where kissing everyone on the cheeks is normal. But I'd have to say I find it weird. Each to their own though. I generally try to curb my instinct to grimace when I see people doing that and look away.

It's freaking gross. I see parents and kids do that and I die a bit inside :mad:

If they're your kids, or if you are closely related to them e.g. kid siblings, there is absolutely no problem with it. There would only be a problem if there was a sexual connotation around it, and for most people there just simply isn't.
When I was 14 I was going to kiss my mum goodnight as usual, but it was dark and I kissed her by accident and she laughed.

Most awkward moment of my life.

If they're your kids, then normal.

If they're not your kids, then abnormal.
