Mother in law kissing my 12 month old on the lips

Yes!! Not only a germy issue but, those are not her lips to kiss. You can suggest “please only kiss on the cheeks or forehead, we’re trying to prevent spread of illness”. Also that’s your spouse’s responsibility.

Yes, personally I have a no kissing rule bc germs and cold sores but even if you don’t I feel she should only be kissing his cheeks or head?

Speaking for me and my child, no one and I mean no one, not even me kisses my son on the lips. You are the mama so you make the rules on that. If you don't want anyone kissing your child on the lips but you and his dad then set that boundary without concern/guilt or hesitation. Anyone have a problem with that can argue with the wall.

Absolutely weird. I don’t even like when the parent does that… 🤦‍♀️ 😆 I mean, do whatever, but it’s seriously weird for a grandparent to do it. Set boundaries!

Considering the fact that we are still in the cold season, yes because baby might potentially catch a cold.

And trust me, let your husband do it. Let him talk to her because, you will not hear the end of it. I've been there.

Kisses is one thing but on the lips?! Gross!! We do no kisses except mom & dad. However my FIL had multiple strokes so no matter how many times we say no kisses he does it anyway bc he can't remember 🙃 At least it's like head kisses but still. It bothers me! I want no kisses until my little can consent to it. We don't even kiss him on the lips. That's so weird.

What is it with MILs and pushing this boundary?! Ugh! Mine is the same way and she got so offended when my husband told her to stop. She gets cold sores too so that bothers me even more. She's never tried to kiss him on the lips though. I'd say your hubby should be the one to talk to her about it. And if she gets mad, that's her problem. That's how I feel about my MIL anyway. But she's been an ongoing battle. Lol

Absolutely NOT! I have cussed my mil out idk how many times before I finally cut their relationship off. Idc if that’s the kind of person she is if you said NO to it then she needs to respect that. To me personally if someone can’t listen to a simple command or boundary especially regarding my kid they are an unsafe adult around my kid. Bc at the end of the day none of these mofos are gonna be in that hospital room 24/7 crying wondering why this is happening to your baby. Sorry this is a heated topic for me bc my mil has done this several times now as soon as i left the room thinking i didnt have a monitor on her ass. Absolutely not.
