stranger kissed my baby, help!

I’d be exactly the same, an old women said to me whilst we were away ‘I just need to kiss her’ didn’t have a clue who this person was so I started walking backwards saying no you won’t and she just kept getting closer. I had to leave the cafe and calm down x

Umm I would 110% react the same way. What was this man thinking!!! Why would he do that. You’re absolutely right with your response and how you reacted, I would be the same x

I’d react the same or even more

I think kissing your baby on the lip is out of order. Especially by a stranger. To be honest kissing your baby anywhere else by a stranger is out of order. I probably would have handled the situation differently though.

I think that's disgusting. I would have dealt with it differently but how you feel about it is valid (and I would say warranted).

How did he get that close to her?

my mum was holding her on her left hip & he went to greet my mum with a hug to her right side which didn’t think anything of but then was already close to my baby so by the time my mum (and me) realised what he was doing so we could act it was already too late :(

Completely valid I don’t know how you stayed THAT cool I think I’d have made my fist kiss his lips 😳 I also think it’s very weird. Clearly he did not think that through before he did it. Disgusting

I’m so sorry you had to experience that! Your feelings were completely valid and your reaction completely understandable. His behaviour was inappropriate and I think you were very brave to confront him and let him know as such.

Hiya,you are a million percent valid in your feelings. I’m angry for you just thinking about it, what a violation and why do we always have to be the ones to educate others. Being older is no excuse unless he is a hermit.

I would assess whether he was just misguided or had some weird intent. If you feel like he seemed somewhat remorseful or unlikely to repeat that then I would do absolutely everything you can to try to move on ASAP. If you’re anything like me this will be so hard to do but the truth is it’ll be more damaging if you become engrossed in this and it impacts how you let your baby socialise with others and impact your mental health. Apart from being psychic there’s not much you could have done, it was a cheeky act done on a whim and in a flash before you could act. Try and remain a reassuring and calm force for your daughter x

I’d honestly have spoken my mind then and there. I’d be absolutely fuming. Not only from a health perspective but what an actual creep.

I would of flipped there and then I’m sorry but what man kisses a strangers baby on lips that just wrong

This is awful, I’d have been just like you. I do tend to freeze sometimes when someone does something to upset me and then my blood boils. It’s like I have delayed reactions sometimes - maybe a little in shock and took a while to process what happened! I think you handled this fine, I’d have been fuming x

Thats disgusting af i wouldve swung on him IDC

Thats why i want to keep my baby indoors and nobody will know when im in labor but my man

Im sorry but this is disgusting. I'd react the same way, im strong headed and if something isnt ok i speak up, this is absolutely not ok! I dont even let strangers touch my child, they could have anything....fyi i'm not a total germaphobe, lol.
What if she contracted the herpes virus from him doing that and she became very sick....idiot man

oh I see, no offence to your mum but she needs to reach quicker to prevent these things happening, I hope you are okay try not to worry and just put it behind you, long as she is safe and well that’s all that matters x
