Yep, sometimes my kids don’t want to hug my father in law and he said “awe but now you are making grandpa sad “. Without skipping a beat my wife said “well Grandpa is a grown adult responsible for managing his own feelings and kids arnt obliged to make him feel better”….. he didn’t know what to say, and I was so proud of my wife.

Because the child asked not to be hugged and grandpa jumped straight to making the child responsible for his feelings. A boundary was set and grandpa tried to swerve it.

And how can a child tell the difference? Guess how many pedophiles use guilt to abuse their victims?

Projecting that you asked a weird blunt question to that person? Yeah man people aren't fond of dickheads who do that.
