AIBU to be disgusted by the ppl who think David Beckham is wrong for kissing HIS OWN DAUGHTER!!

Just that really! WTF is wrong with some ppl

Yeah, I find this weird too. I’m really not sure why it would bother anyone.

Ignore it OP. There is obviously some very detached parenting going on if people think kissing your own dd is wrong.

I have 3 DDs 8, 6, 3. They all kids their DF good night every night. The youngest normally squishes his face and says "gimme a kiss" 😂

How anyone can think it's anything other than being a loving parent is beyond me.

*kiss

There was a freak out about Victoria doing the same a while back. Some people just seem to go around looking for things to get worked up over.

Wasn't this from years ago?

Goodness. I kissed my dad on the lips until I was in my twenties. If he hasn't passed away I might still. It's a bit like extended breastfeeding in a way - it's just something you do and you keep doing it. It never feels wrong because well, it isn't wrong

I feel sorry for him that he has to read such shite!! Must be horrible to be made to question your actions after showing your children love.

But rather than praise a family who (appear to be) bringing up happy and loved children, let's make out like something isn't appropriate.

My eldest is 7 i can just about get a kiss on the cheek atm, it doesn't last forever until they think they are too grown up!!

It’s ridiculous, I still kiss my dad when I see him, I’m 48 and he’s 77!!! My children all kiss my dh, I don’t find it weird at all. I’ve looked at that photo and there’s nothing but love in it.

People are weird. It's a lovely photo. I'm 42 and I still give my Dad a peck on the lips.

We're affectiinae and tactile but not lip kissers in our family and I do cringe when I see people do it. I loved my dad alot but the one time I kissed his lips instead of his cheek with a kiss was awkward and cringe.

I don't judge people who do kiss kids on the lips though, it's just not for us. However, I think you calling people 'disgusting' is just as bad as people calling DB disgusting, OP.

I wouldn't give my dad a kiss on the lips at my age (late twenties) but at that age don't think it's inappropriate at all.

@M4J4 I do think what they are saying is disgusting

DH and I are super affectionate with our kids ( primary schoolboy & girl) - hugs, kisses - and always have been. We have noticed that not many people are overtly affectionate with their kids even when they were babies & toddlers. Even those that we know to be loving parents don't seem to be as tactile as us and so it left us wondering whether we are the anomaly. Of course, they may be different in private. It's almost akin to PDA but between parents and kids rather than between adults.

no one thinks he shouldn't kiss his daughter, just not on the lips. Kissing your kids on the lips is weird

No it’s not

No it isnt Auntie ursula. The weirdness is in the perception of those who think it is.

Nothing wrong with kissing your child. But I do think it’s a bit icky to kiss your parent or child on the lips.

You have a dirty mind, ursula

To not want my FIL kissing my 2yo on the lips? http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/amiibeingunreasonable/3376477-To-not-want-my-FIL-kissing-my-2yo-on-the-lips

I think it's 50/50 with people who kiss their children on the lips and those who don't. Both think the other lot are weird! Neither are it's just what you are used to.

I think it's weird when parents kiss their children on the lips and I don't like it. I find it even worse when children who aren't my children expect me to kiss them on the lips (because that's what their parents do and I'm seen as family). I always manage to wriggle away and kiss them on the forehead instead.

But there are lots of parents who think kissing children on the lips is normal and do it without any sinister intentions, so maybe it's considered socially acceptable after all. **

Its a massive no no in loads of cultures. Lip kisses are for lovers. Cheek kisses for everyone else

I’m not a lip kisser, it makes me cringe (me doing it I mean!) but my boyfriend and his family are and it’s ¯\(ツ)/¯ its not sexual ffs. You’d think parents should only shake hands. I mean Christ.
