My cousin died at 23yo and she’d still cuddle her dad in his oversized chair. I always admired their relationship. They always just seemed to intuitively know when one or the other had a tough day and needed a little love.

What the hell is wrong with your mother?

It’s completely normal for dads, and daughters to show affection. If your mother says it’s inappropriate, I would not allow your children to have unsupervised visits with her. Sounds like she might be saying things about the kid’s father in front of them, and behind your back.

No. Affection from a parent at any age is not inappropriate. Some people just have mommy and daddy issues because their parents never showed them affection. Something I had to learn myself. I used to be that person that was like, “ew you kiss your mom/dad” to my friends who had healthy relationships with their parents. Something I never had.

A child cuddling with his/her parent, regardless if it’s mom or dad, is the most normal and natural thing in the world!!! Is your mother off her meds, or something???

I think if your non has a problem with a five year old snuggling their own dad, she has her own set of deep problems that she needs to go to counseling for.
Affection towards our kids by both parents is so important.

Snuggle away. The family that loves together, stays together.

Normal and healthy!!

Omg what is wrong with your mother?
I would only hope my children cuddle me and my spouse much longer than 5 years old…

I’m 39 and still love to cuddle up with my mam and dad. That’s been the hardest part about covid not being able to go round and have cuddle just because. If you think there is something wrong with it then that is your issue, maybe you should have a little word with your mam find out why she thinks this. No wonder dads feel uncomfortable kissing cuddling their children because they know what some people are thinking. Would anyone think this of a mam??

Nothing wrong with it at all. My kid still cuddles me as teen. I’m sure they do the same at dad’s place

Is it inappropriate for a child to snuggle with their mother on the couch?

I was still climbing into my dads bed in the middle of the night at about 10! I would find it strange if they didn’t want to cuddle up on the sofa if I’m honest
I’m a daddy’s girl and always have been my kids are the same

I bet your mom wouldn’t be saying that if it was you that your son was cuddling with! Of course it’s okay for him to cuddle with his dad! My youngest is 5 and loves to snuggle with me and his dad, there’s nothing inappropriate about loving your kids!

Sounds like your mother needs to realign her head.

This is why children grow up disconnected from their parents because people shame parents for showing affection to their children, they make everything sexual resulting in parents being uncomfortable with showing certain types of affection to their children. The only problem here is that she sees a problem with a child cuddling their father. My dad died a couple years ago when I was 20, still right up until the moment he left me every chance I got I’d cuddle up to him, he’s the man that raised me, it’s not perverted or sexual I am his child and he loves me as much as I love him, cuddling is literally just a show of affection. Everyday I cuddle up to my sons on the sofa, they come lay in bed with me, we give kisses, is that a problem? Or is it only usually deemed an issue when it’s a father and daughter? Yes, there has been cases of abuse between fathers and his children but you can’t then label every father a nonce if he shows affection to his children, it’s literally the same as labeling every dog aggressive because one dog bit someone, like it’s just not plausible. Let parents love their children without making it sexual, the people making it sexual are the ones who should be questioning their train of thought.

Tell your mother to butt out and keep her nasty foul opinion to herself. If she has past trauma she needs help for it. There is nothing wrong about any child snuggling with their parent. Would she be the same if you had a son and it was you?

I LOTHE these people who say it’s not okay for dads to be affectionate with their kids beyond the stages of toddler.
So many people complain that their kids father isn’t as engaged in the kids life, but if you’re basically saying that dads can’t be affectionate past the toddler stage, you set yourself up for this.
It’s perfectly normal and acceptable for moms to be cuddly right up to teenage years, but when it’s a dad it’s inappropriate?
Talk about a double standard!

Breaking news: Child being loved by parent. There is this huge outdated belief that Dads shouldn’t cuddle their kids. It went with Dads not changing nappies or giving bottles. I think it’s perfectly fine to always hug parents or use them as giant pillows. There is an age when certain behaviour might start seeming inappropriate but you’ve about seven years before you need to start thinking about it!
