The explanation of why children kiss each other in the mouth
When children start daycare and are small, they usually kiss each other in the mouth to welcome each other or to ask for forgiveness. These actions have no malice whatsoever and what they show is how the children show their innocence and their love and respect for each other by giving him a kiss in the mouth.
As the children grow up this act disappears and the children reserve the kisses in the mouth only for their parents(in case they keep giving them) or for special moments in the future, such as when they find a 'boyfriend' ' or girlfriend'. It is a beautiful act to see in young children because you can see a great innocence between them, but at the same time it can be negative. When children are in daycare or early childhood education, if they kiss each other in the mouth they are more likely to contract more common illnesses than if they do not.
As children grow up, it is important to teach them that kissing in the mouth can only be given to 'special' people like mom or dad. So you will not feel that normalization of giving kisses in the mouth to everyone, something that in the long run could confuse the limit of love towards others.
There are many people who are against kissing children on the lips because they think it is something negative or because it has some kind of sexual connotation. Nothing is further from reality, kissing the children on the lips with the traditional 'piquito' s is only a sign of love more than parents have for their children.
But it is necessary to teach the children as they grow up, that these 'special kisses' are not to be given to anyone since they are only signs of love for people like mom or dad and that if another adult asks them to kiss him in mouth, you will need to tell your parents immediately.
