Maybe people are allowed to be sensitive about their personal space.

O you can be sensitive about giving a hello hug to your grandparents, but people are allowed to think you're a giant weirdo for it.

I mean yeah that's whatever to most people. Anyone will have an opinion on anything. It's only annoying when said grandparents actually complain about it. Complaining you don't get access to someone's body is more inappropriate than someone declining to hug you in favor of another acceptable greeting.

Yep. Also, if they just move on from the greeting and lack of hug, they can move into conversation and actually getting to KNOW their grandchild which is more important than a hug anyway!
