Baby 9 months kissing other babies

Just wondering if anyone has any advice for teaching baby to only kiss mum and dad? He really likes other babies, which I think is great, but then he attempts to kiss them with mouth wide open.

I'm thinking, just to show him that he can stroke, similar how I try to teach him to not grab certain things or faces?

You really can't teach a 9 month old that besides plenty more don't want to be stroked either.

Don’t be daft. He’s a baby. Let him crack on or if it’s an issue, remove him before he gets a chance.

You just need to pick him up and remove him from the situation. Don’t just assume other people want their babies stroked or touched either. He’s too little to understand social interaction.

Thanks a lot to those who actually gave me advice, it's my first baby, hence I asked for advice.
