Okay, awkward situation at my son's daycare. When I drop him off, I give him a hug and a kiss goodbye. During the school year I drop him off very early, and there's only one other little boy there. Justin and he have play dates, live two miles apart, have been in daycare together for 2.5 years, and I'm friends with his guardians (grandparents). Anyway, this boy sometimes asks for a kiss when I give Justin a kiss, so I give him a kiss on the forehead or top of the head because our families have grown close and I see him as more than a "daycare buddy." Plus, he really doesn't have a mom in his life any more, so I don't mind giving him a little extra attention (he used to try to call me mom to test out the word, like Justin tested out "daddy" on his grandfather).
Now that it's summer, when I drop Justin off everyone is there. When the second boy asks for a kiss, all of a sudden the other kids do, too. This has happened about five or six times now. There are about 6 other 2 & 3 year olds. I don't know; I would feel a little weird either way if I were other parents. If Justin asked another parent for a hug or a kiss, I'm not sure whether I'd feel comfortable either way (with him being rejected, or with him receiving a kiss from another parent). Today the daycare provider sensed my hesitation and suggested I blow kisses.
What would you do if you were me? How would you feel if you were the other kids' parents?
