to not want to kiss my DC full on the lips?

I have noticed this mother at the school before, kissing her DS(8) full on the lips, half a dozen times, with wet sloppy kisses outside the classroom door. This morning she was directly in front of me and it was 'mmmmm......mmmmmm......mmmmm.......mmmmmmm....etc' in our faces. I kiss my DS wherever I can aim and catch him (head,cheek,anorak). Am I being weird? When I was at home, wet sloppy kisses on the lips were for people you were married to/in a partnership with. Or AIBU?

Well I can see, like our present incumbent, that you truly do have a poem for all of life's rich tapestry Grin

The oral sex comment was ill thought out.

But, I do think that full on lip kissing with dc is inappropriate.

Grin I know she'd be proud of my work - I'm sure she can see her inspiration in my words

AmazingBouncingFerret · 08/10/2012 20:29

Yabu.

Lovelygoldboots · 08/10/2012 20:30

Yes but now did they get in there Sheela, that will really mess with their heads.

One of the nicest things I've seen is one of my (male) friends still kissing his dad on the lips at the age of 42.

If it doesn't feel natural to you, then don't do it, but as I said above, mine basically forced it on me and it doesn't feel icky at al!

Oh thank you, thank you ladies - was having a tough day now tears (of laughter) are literally rolling down my face :)

If you've just wiped your flaps
Then baby wakes from naps
You should always wash your hands

If you're sucking knob
Then hear baby sob
You should always brush your teeth

I have this maxim framed and hanging in the bathroom not really

clemetteattlee · 08/10/2012 20:33

It is not "inappropriate". It is "not to your taste". Stop projecting.

alienreflux · 08/10/2012 20:33

sometimes i read these threads and i think this cannot be fucking real??!!
how the jesus mary and joseph did we get from kissing kids to sucking dick??!!
just for the record, my 18 month old is in the wide open slobber abounding kissing on the mouth stage, yes it's gross, it's foul and no one else would get away with it, but she's my daughter!!!!
Please don't tell me the world has got so far fucked we can't kiss our own kids on the lips???

SheelaNeGig · 08/10/2012 20:33

I have just sent DS (nearly 7) off to bed with a big smacker full on the lips. This is how he loves to kiss me. Except in the playground, when we have an agreed code that a hand squeeze = a big kiss, because he has deemed himself too grown up for a kiss from mum in front of his friends. Except when he forgets and gives me a kiss anyway.

Point is, it's completely natural, you, OP, are so BU to find it offensive, and no one is forcing you to do the same. Your comment about oral sex was so bizarre, words fail me (and that's saying something!)

MogTheForgetfulCat · 08/10/2012 20:39

Lip kissing is not inappropriate. Fine, if you don't like it, don't do it FFS, but to use that word is vile - it has all sorts of overtones that are pretty offensive in this context.

Kiss quickly your little boy
But only little pecks
If your lips have touched the toy
Your husband keeps for sex

hugoagogo · 08/10/2012 20:43

Vile?

Methinks it's you lot who are overreacting.

It's not that I think that it's wrong to do it, as such; just that I think it's a good idea for dc to understand that lip kissing is reserved for loving partners.
