Don't force your daughter to hug grandad

I should point out that this is just blimm'n common sense

I can't recall ever in my life anyone ordering me to hug or kiss any relatives, so not sure what sort of parent does.

Pretty odd really

Girl Scouts to parents: Don’t force your daughter to give hugs this holiday As the holiday season approaches, the Girl Scouts of America is sending a stern warning to parents: Your daughter doesn’t “owe” anyone in the family a hug. The organization is sending the message as top figures from Hollywood to Washington are being accused of sexual misconduct and harassment, in some cases dating back years. “Have you ever insisted, ‘Uncle just got here – go give him a big hug!’ or ‘Auntie gave you that nice toy, go give her a kiss,’ when you were worried your child might not offer affection on her own?” the group said in a 373-word blog post. “If yes, you might want to reconsider the urge to do that in the future.”....................................
