Kissing is one of the main ways that we show affection towards people that we care about.
But over the years it has become mostly associated with romantic relationships and other kissing can sometimes be looked down on by society.
This has left people wondering: is it okay for parents to kiss their child on the lips?
Several celebrities in Hollywood have also faced backlash for posting pictures in which they can be seen kissing their children on their lips.
Hilary Duff posted a photo on Instagram, kissing her son on his lips. One person wrote, “You should not kiss your son like that. There’s other ways to show love but not that one. It’s confusing for him, it’s not healthy.”
Victoria Beckham was also hit by a similar backlash after putting an Instagram picture in which she can be seen kissing her daughter Harper on her lips. Victoria also got a fair bit of abuse in the comments section.
One social media user wrote, “Eww sorry I’m old fashioned, it looks like they making out.”
