s/o do you kiss your kids on the lips?

Anonymous
Country of origin and/or ethnicity please... Someone in another thread said that it's a cultural thing, so I guess that info has bearing.

We do kiss on the lips in my house; I'm Italian but born in here in the States.

Army brat brought up as your typical 70's American kid. Do not kiss our kids on the lips.

We do kiss on the lips.

Born and raised in the US. Ukranian/German/Anglo descent. Mine and DH's families are very different on many things but both sides kiss babies and young children on the lips.

I never like seeing this; just seems out of place, something to be rese3rved only for the parents/couples. Caucasian.

I do. My parents kissed me on the lips until I was uncomfortable with it and I suspect I will do the same. I'm a white 3rd generation (both sides) American.

No. Seems bizarre to me. I guess they can get catching herpes out the way though.

No. I don't have a problem with it in theory, but suspect he would not like it. American born and raised.

Eastern Europe - nobody I knew growing up did this. Moved to the US, had kids, and now both me and American DH do it, not sure why - it just seemed like the thing to do at the time. I don't see it going beyond a certain age, but we haven't reached that point yet

Yes! Asian and Caucasian family. So weird that others are bothered by this.
