The problems of the "little kisses" between parents and children

It is very common to see mothers out there kissing on the mouth with a peck their children, choosing this way to show your affection. But despite the tenderness with which this may look, making this a daily practice and pass the age limits imposed can generate some kinks.

This is something that is seen as loving and tender, and that despite not something widespread among all parents and children no one bats to see this situation, already considered as normal that you see every day.

However, we must remember that we see this as adults, but outside of our vision our children see it as children. They have not yet incorporated the rule that kissing a person of the opposite sex as a matter of attraction and love, and once we begin to confront this standard can complicated things a bit.


It is rather that in the words of Alejandra Liebenson, psychologist author of "Raising children, creating people": "until within two years can not be counterproductive, when children begin to socialize this practice can cause problems because the child can repeat what I do at home out of it. And that entails many risks. If the child sees as natural as an adult kiss a baby can take you outside of your family. "

Of course, this can cause many problems in the child, as this situation of confusion can not only generate a personal conflict of inentendimiento, it may be grounds for rejection among peers of the child, which is not always handled nor assumes very While these ages.

That's why we recommend it as a dad or mom, try to avoid such contact, or if you're doing watching it seeks progressively replaced by hugs and kisses on the cheek, codes of children amount to the same ;).
