SIR – Heaven help us from interfering sexperts wading in with their unwanted and ridiculous advice. The latest nonsense from Lucy Emmerson, co-ordinator of the Sex Education Forum about children not giving granny and other relatives a kiss on the cheek is another symbol of so much of that is wrong with this country.
Generations of children have been told by their parents to give a relative a peck on the cheek and yes, some are reluctant, but it does no harm – and more importantly has nothing to do with sex.
There is a heck of a difference between appropriate affection and a sex pest. Get back in your box, Lucy, and leave parents to bring up their children as they think best.
