1) Is it wrong for your children to know that you kiss your wife because you love her?
2) dont you kiss your children too?
3) dont you teach your children the right and wrong of life?
4) why dont you simply explain to them that this is what adults do when they care for one another (as they will surely see others do it)?
5) why hide something as beautiful as a kiss?
6) when did kissing your loving partner became "something wrong"?

My husband and I share a kiss in front of anyone including children. We do it respectfully. We save the raw stuff behind closed bedroom doors.

paranorman: Kids Less than 12,nope. Kids more than 12,only a peck. For the 18 above....like they care about it...

yap:-)totally agree

Did someone refer to kissing as a bad thing!! I am not saying to have a make out session in front of the kids but kissing is not a bad and dirty thing that should be hidden. It's only an expression of love in the home. Why would seeing your parents kiss turn you in to a fanatic or even turn you on If you have a sick mind, you have a sick mind don't blame it on silly things like seeing parents kiss. What kind of people do we have in Nigeria
Na wa o! I can only thank my God for the little favours!

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

If the children are still very young den i don't support it at all..but if d children are of age like 20 A̶̲̥̅̊₪d̶̲̥̅̊ above den there is nothing wrong with that. Just that parents shd apply caution in doing this

Considering that we are africans, I cn say itz nt very proper bt if u wana raise ur kids the way of the whites, then itz very ok.

The essence of language is communication,period!!!!!!

andyanders: [b]Well it all depends. To me, It is a white man syndrome as they see nothing in it and hence their attitude.
As Africans, kissing your wife in the presence of your children will tell them there is nothing wrong in it.In some homes, you find same siblings practicing same thing they learnt from their parents within themselves and gets easily carried over when a young lady who sees nothing wrong getting loose at a tender age and they start developing fixtures rapidly. when a young girl start kissing, her hormones start developing faster and the result might be early pregnancy if they go beyond kissing to the actual act.
In some homes, you see most of the children of these parents that practice this act bringing home the opposite sex in the name of family friend and they get lost in some kind of acts they learnt from their parents.
There was a very bad case where went I visiting a family friend at Ikoyi and the little young boys 6/7yrs old ran to me and greeted me and I asked after their parents and this kids told me that mummy and daddy were doing inside their room. I waited for them in the living room and the two boys were running up and down laughing from the stair case up and down and later both walked to me that their mother and father were holding themselves and they started demonstrating what they were doing and I had to scold them and told them not to go upstairs again as they live in a duplex. From their demonstration, I knew that they were having intimacy.

So, these children learn and practice what they see us doing. So if you smoke, your children will see nothing wrong in that and will equally do same more than you. If you drink alcohol at home, your children will see nothing bad about it and equally will drink more than you. So one has to be careful in what we display in the presence of our children.[/b]

not all kissing is sexually based. Kissing is a sign of affection. Whether its a husband kissing his wife or a mother kissing her baby.

Also, your notion of kissing will make a young girls hormones develop faster is stupid. Its up to parents to educate their children on what is right and wrong, and then ultimately its up to the child to make their own decision.

I wonder what makes many young males so Hot, they must've all witnessed their parents having sex.

Neva saw dem kissed b4, although......... But i get moved to ave 1 sumday whenever i watch movie

Aha... We ve a misunderstanding here, who‘s correcting ur english? Do i even ve time for that? Seriously, u are shallow minded.
I was only calling ur attention to the fact that u explained why you kiss to ur children and u are not sure if dey understood.
Simple!
Do i ve to simplify this for u to understand?
Yuck!

It dependz a lot on the kinda kiss. An affectionate and lovinq peck or kiss don't seem so bad. The sensual kind should be saved for later in d um...bedroom.

In moderation.
They shouldn't be "french kissing" in front of their kids
but a peck is cool. It's all about respect.

that's what I'm talking about sis.

what you try to hide from children to stop them from knowing always have the negative effect.it always increase their interest to know why ,how ,when and where.When i was growing up ,watching movies in my house was so censored that we can only watch cartoons and it must be bought by my parents or else there will be Heaven and Hell.That only increased my interest in seeking out any type of movies to watch at any available available safe time

freecocoa: My parents were the first people I ever saw kiss, it wasn't french kiss with tongue and saliva though, they used to kiss lightly in our presence and we(my siblings and I) turned out alright as far as I can tell.

Eeekwa...you turned out alright ?

Why not? It's healthy for kids to see their parents showing affection. It gives them a sense of security. All other sexual acts should be done in private, but a little kiss here and there is harmless.

African typically shy away from PDA include kissing in front of their kids. There absolutely nothing wrong with parents kissing in front of their kids. to keep it in perspective what kids learn at home is what they take to their home when they get older. I'm in disbelieve that people think kissing will corrupt kids mind wow theres going to be a generation of people who don't no how, when and to whom to show affection to. trust and believe kids will learn about kissing 1 way or another.Parents that show appropriate display of affection teach that affection can be shown between two people that care and love each other. As long as parents can draw a line btw showing love and lovemaking there nothing detrimental ab kissing in front of kids.

It is way more comforting and reassuring to children than two parents that are always nagging and fighting before children.

It helps to shape the children's outlook to love and appreciate,instead of fighting and hitting.

Nothing is wrong with giving each other a peck but full make out should saved for the bedroom. What is wrong with showing your children what happens in a healthy relationship.

NRI PRIEST:

Eeekwa...you turned out alright ?

as far as she can tell. . .

@OP, simple hug and pecck should suffice to express whatever love the couple wants.

Just wondering though, why is there a need to show them that you love each other, and of all the ways possible, its kissing that seems most appropriate?

I never saw my parents do the saliva swapping thingy, but never had the slightest doubt that they loved each other.

Village chaps sees this as wrong, I Nathing wrong wit thatz!!

It's very bad.

Why should u kiss in the presence of ur children?. It doesnt make sense.

It depends...
