Is It Right For Parents To Show Affection Openely? by DeepZone: 9:20am On Nov 10, 2008
Is it right for parents to show affection towards each other openly before their children? For ex: Dad approaches mum from the back while she's making breakfast, kiss her in the mouth and stylishly handle her boobs while the kids are there?.

Hugging, pecking, these are ok but they shouldn't go as far as handling in their kids' presence. The little ones tend to practicalise what they see the parents doing.

But then, if parents avoid doing it before the kids, do they also monitor they don't watch it in the movies?

Save all that handling for the bedroom, however, kissing and hugging infront of the kids are ok. Remember kids pick up on whatever their parents do.

@Topic,

The Children would know there is affection, love and care between both parents

Affection such as, holding hands, hugging, kissing are fine, in front of d kids.

Massaging each other's shoulders and feet are fine as well.

Everything else are meant for later!

hug and lip to lip kiss is ok while kids are around.

I think moderation is key here, its okay for kids to know how much their parent care about each other . . . . . . .

But intimacy should be done in private. kiss
