[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nip this in the bud. Your son owns his body and "owes" affection to no one. What a horrible example to set, that affection can be "bought" for gifts or that "good children" give affection. You are right, OP. Protect your child. http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/20/living/give-grandma-hug-child/[/quote] +1 Children should NEVER be forced to hug or kiss anyone, especially for a gift! Gross.[/quote] +1[/quote] +1. It could be that OP's mother doesn't exhibit the same behavior, or was corrected and changed her behavior. I have the same rules about no forced physical contact with my child - my mother got it after a few reminders, and my MIL has said she is entitled (her word) to physical affection from my child. It's a battle every time - one that I let her son handle. And yes, my child is now affectionate with my mother because she never forced the issue. And he has never warmed up to MIL. Her loss.[/quote]
