[quote=Anonymous]Ok I'm just going to say it: The pp's saying it is etiquette to HAVE to give grandparents PHYSICAL affection are just naive and nuts. Physical affection is to be given freely. It teaches your child to have ownership over their persons. It teaches them that later in life if someone to whom they are related, or have a close relationship, especially someone in authority over them (teacher, coach, etc.) tries to be physical and the kid is uncomfortable they have the RIGHT to say no. If my dd says no to me about a hug or kiss... that is fine..sometimes i tell her no...she is a big hugger. It boggles my mind that someone would force ANYONE to kiss them.[/quote]
