Children express their love to relatives or close friends through kisses and hugs. For them, a kiss is synonymous with love, affection, happiness, and, therefore,they only give them to those who make them feel calm, safe, and loved.
However, it is common to find parents who force their children to kiss and hug people not so close to them, regardless of whether the children may become uncomfortable.
When children do not want to kiss or hug someone, many parents mistake this as rudeness or obstinacy. Children should be free to decide who they trust and who they don't. Children can greet differently and demonstrate good manners such as a handshake. Before forcing your child to kiss someone as a greeting, ask if he/she feels comfortable doing so.
Children must be respectful and kind; however, greeting with a kiss is a manifestation of affection. Children must have the opportunity to establish boundaries with strangers; forcing them to kiss those they do not want can generate a complacent attitude with strangers, exposing them to unwanted situations.
Remember that a kiss is a way to express affection for children, so it should not be a way to measure their manners. Think about how uncomfortable it can be to kiss when you don't want to.
Parents should teach children the difference between being loving and being polite. They should know that they are masters of their own body and control it; this will help them avoid allowing behaviors that make them feel uncomfortable with others.
