Why on earth would it be unacceptable! Admittedly my own are a bit younger but theres nothing wrong with a father and son sharing a genuine moment of affection. There will come a time when the boy no longer wants to or think it cool but untill then let them be.

I'm not a huge fan of kissing children on the lips maybe it comes from reading about a child dying due to cold sore but all for hugs and kisses kids need comfort and adults too

I don't see a problem with it. It would be extremely sad if you can't kiss your kids anymore.

I kiss my kids, I give them squeeze hugs (as we call them)

There is nothing wrong in showing affection to your children, no matter their age

I was 29 when my dad died, I kissed and hugged him every time I saw him, every time we were saying goodbye when heading home from visits. I wish to god I could hug and kiss him right now.

There's way too much in this world seen as socially unacceptable these days.

Be comfortable in your feelings for your children, be comfortable expressing those feelings. Let your children know and be confident and comfortable to express theirs

That's just my view

Not inappropriate at all. We never kissed on the lips in my family because my mam gets the odd coldsore but we kiss on the cheek.

Well I don't because I'm an unaffectionate little weirdo but my sister still does and she is in her twenties.

Deffo! Children learn from their parents and surroundings they need to be shown that affection is a good thing and not to feel ashamed by it.

I don't think they would or should

My dad had 4 daughters and he was equally affectionate to each of us

My mam was never an overly affectionate woman, we knew she loved us, but she wasn't one for showing it. Dad on the other hand would sweep us up in a bear hug and give us a big kiss on the cheek.

I make a show of my kids when I drop them to their friends, I say, now give your mammy a big kiss bye bye. And they do give me a kiss, they don't care, and I don't care who's watching. My kids are grown, 24,20,17 & 15, 3 of them are boys.

Not 1 of them are "ashamed" or "embarrassed" to hug me or give me a kiss in public

Our kids are only ever lent to us. Kiss them, cuddle them, hold them tight. Tell them every day you love them. Part of a poem

Especially our boys show them its ok to kiss, cuddle and cry. Emotions are ok. My boy is 11, ill kiss him every day till he tells me to stop.... then ill still get the odd sneeky one in. Its ok to kiss your child no matter what gender you are or what age your child is.

Never inappropriate. If you believe it to be, you've been conditioned by the media or other to believe its wrong. It took millions of years to evole right down to you and for you to pass your genes on. Love your kids and show them you love them until the day they die.

Show affection and let them know you love them but you don’t kiss your children on the lips FFS.

If I saw that I would be wondering should I report it to TUSLA.

A hugg and a kiss on top of their head seems about right to me.

Reporting a parent to tusla for a kiss. One of the most silliest comments I've ever read on the internet. You are part of the problem in today's society.

Some familes are more affectionate than others but if you are wondering whether to report this to Tusla then you clearly dont understand what they do and dont appreciate that affection takes many forms.i say kiss them away and remember you are there to make them safe and loved.

I have three sons and they get a kiss on the head and they get hugged. I’m not a fan of lip kissing for parents and kids, especially boys. I think boys need to be a bit tougher than girls as they need to be able to protect their family if they become a father. I honestly do believe that our society is against masculinity and traditional boyishness and lip kissing doesn’t help.
