[quote=Anonymous]Hmmmm. I think there's a fine line here. Yes, you want to promote your child's right to control his/her own body and to be able to say "no" to unwanted contact. But is kissing grandparents really an issue of "controlling one's own body"? I'm not so sure. These are grandparents, not the school janitor, for god's sake. I think it's perfectly appropriate to say to a child "You need to kiss gpa/gma hello and goodbye. It will hurt their feelings if you don't accept their kiss." Kissing hello and goodbye is etiquette for a child. [/quote]
