I still kiss my parents goodnight

    When did you stop kissing your parents or whatever? ...Or rather, did your parents kiss you goodnight or whatever?

    ---

    Yes, my parents used to make me kiss them before I went to bed.

    But then, I became kissing repulsed as soon as I turned eleven. That's when I stopped kissing my parents. Haven't since.

    I'm sure they have in the past, but I don't remember. O_o Then again, this is coming from someone who used to hate anyone touching her when she was sick too. I don't have very solid memories of it because my stupid memory sucks.

    If I did, I must have stopped pretty quickly.
     
    I don't think kissing was a thing in my family. Except for quick pecks between my mother and stepfather when they leave for work.
    Oh wait, never mind. My father still likes to greet me/say goodbye with hugs and a kiss on my head. And my grandmother on my father's side would do the same. I don't mind it, but throughout my life, returning kisses was kind of awkward for me and I would opt out of it and simply hug family members.

    On a random somewhat related note, one thing my mother used to do was wake me up in the morning by saying "Good morning, ladybug." That was kind of cute. I forget but I think she stopped saying that at some point when I reached adolescence.
     
    My mom still kisses me from time to time if we haven't seen each other for a few days. I can't really remember kissing my mom before bedtime or anything like that, hugs maybe.
     
    I think I stopped fairly young; about 7 or so, but never understood why. I'd still kiss them regularly if it were considered appropriate; but at least where I live, it's not once you get older. (Which I think is completely stupid but whatever)

    But then again I'm someone who would probably kiss her friends directly on the lips if she could get away with it. Seldom is it ever allowed. I guess I don't put the same weight to kissing as most do, even if it's the same value. In the end yes; I'm quite a loving person.
     
    I'm 28 years old and I still kiss my Mom goodnight. Because let's face it who knows what might happen in the night. Yeah I know it's highly unlikely but you never know.
     
    My parents used to come up and basically tuck me in and kiss me goodnight. It wasn't like super special or anything, but I remember legit crying when they didn't come up to say goodnight for the first time; I'm pretty sure I was at least 13 of 14

    It's a cultural norm for us Mexicans, really. You greet them with a kiss on the cheek, and you say good night with a kiss on the cheek. I'm not repulsed or anything, it's just how I grew up with it in terms of culture.
     
    My parents still kiss me on my cheek and my forehead literally on a daily basis, especially at night. I usually fall asleep after them so they kiss me before they get ready for bed, and they make me kiss them back too of course. This is probably just me but I don't really get the point of kissing my parents because I prefer to kiss as a form of romantic affection. I do love my parents dearly, but I prefer giving them nice warm hugs!

     
    I honestly don't remember the last time this happened.

    I'm pretty sure my parents did it for me when I was a little kid...I just have no memory of when it stopped happening on a regular basis. Not even a vague time period to pin it on. :(
     
    I hug mine good night! I can't sleep unless I do. My mom sometimes kisses me though.
     
    Well, I live on my own now, so that would be a no. I can't even remember the last time that happened. It happened when I was little, but stopped somewhere along the way.
     
    I don't ever remember doing this. lol I will hug and kiss my mom on her cheek for her birthday, and my Nana when I see her since she is in a nursing home and I don't see her much anymore. I grew up with Italian traditions so family kissing isn't a big deal to me.
