I seem to have accidentally taught my daughter that a nose boop is a normal social interaction.

My daughter is twelve month and, obviously, adorable. Ever since she was a few months old I've been doing 'nose boops' with her, where I touch my nose against hers, I thought it was a cute way of showing affection beyond hugs and kisses.She totally loves it. Since around 6 or 7 months she started pressing her nose against toys she liked (ones with faces), then pictures in books. Now she's walking she'll come up to us and press her face against our noses and laugh. I was delighted because she'd learnt a way to show us she loved us (and her cuddly toys and pictures of pigs, apparently).My partner took her to out playgroup this week and when he came home and said 'i think you've made her think that nose boops are a bigger part of daily life than they are!' because she was doing it to the other kids. Basically just smooshing her face against theirs. He had to explain where it had come from.Now, I mostly think that it's not a problem in the long run, she has plenty of time to learn about the social norms and toddlers have no sense of personal boundaries and decorum anyway, and it's kind of funny and cute as long as we can intercept if another kid finds it uncomfortable. However a small part of me feels guilty as I didn't think I'd bring out the (lovable) weirdo in her quite so early!Please feel free to make me feel better with any similar tales you might have. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2Xui6vJ
