Dont worry Kim, its a phase. He'll be fine in a year or two, and he'll be back for his kisses. I've got one 34 and he is a very loving tactile man. He'd kill me stone dead if he saw this message!!!!! Deanna :-0)))

awe kim sign hes becoming a big boy now, bless him, mine just woke up and called me over to give me hug, hes 14, an excuse for him to lay there longer i think, :-) just read pauls shock horror bet youve had to be put into bed paul drunk more than once? lol

Kim, LMAO at this. I think at 12, he's probably old enough to tuck himself in don't you ? lol Paul

Kim, You wait till he gets older - my son (26 and still at home) says he's booking a locksmith for the weekend of 23rd April! I may not be allowed back in! LoL CB >|<

I remember a friend of mine whose son and mine were chums at primary school. They went to an infants' school and switched to a separate junior school. Her son was the eldest in the school and was already 7 when he started. On the first day she went to kiss him goodbye and he said 'OH MUUUUM! You can't kiss me in public - it's so uncool!!!' nell

All is not lost Kim,my two sons are well into their thirties ,and when something goes wrong ,who do they run to see?mum,you bet.Fred.ptfg.&a&g&s.

I got this years ago, you have to know when they need a hug and when it's not appropriate! No hugs for me now, he's in Chicago! Dilys

I know it is hard to take ,but you can tell yourself that you have done a good job bringing him up.He is confident and has told you so by saying this.Can you remember how embarrassed you got somewhere around 11 at the onset of pubety - I stopped kissing my parents good night too. He will go through it and then all of a sudden he will be giving you manly hugs and lifting you off your feet. Mine are now all in their 40 and are very affectionate to me .Give it time - Hugs Rose

He did give me a kiss goodnight and said he loved me, but he wanted to go up the stairs to bed on his own. Mind you, if he wakes up in 'Kevin' mode this morning I will probably wonder why I got upset!! lol But glad to hear from you lot that he's just probably changing the routine, so to speak. Thanks Kim x

Don't worry boys go through this horrible stage and I know it hurts. My eldest son would'nt walk with me in the street and would always be three feet away from me, 'Incase his mates saw him'. They tend to 'go away' for a couple of years, but don't worry, they do come back. Jo.

my 9&7 yr olds would rather die then kiss me or their father maybe its their age who knows even when i was in hospital they kissed me cos their dad told them too but they wiped theirs mouths so quick afterwards ,my 3yr old he kisses me and tells me he loves me all the time even if someone says love you Louis he says 'i love my mummy'

OOOOOOH I am dreading the day my seven yr old son says that, I get upset if he falls asleep watching tv and I don't get the GOODNIGHT GOD BLESS SEE YOU IN THE MORNING LOVE YOU And then my kiss My 16 yr still comes and says goodnight, Sneak up for a kiss when he's had time to settle Jan

Nell, that's exactly what I say!!??? Are you psychic or something? lol :-) Lucia

I still get a kiss from my 13-year-old every nighttime,everymorning and when he comes home from school. However, if I ask him to do anything (ie shut the door, hang his blazer up, put the kettle on) he puts on a Kevin&Perry whine 'It's sooo unfair. I have to do everything!' nell

Oh bless, think i will cry when that happens. U ok?

ah Kim never mind as long as he still gives you a kiss goodnight my 15 year old has just stopped doing that unless hes after something Tracy

Son is 12 and this is the first night he has ever told me he dosen't need me to take him up to bed, I just want to booo! Kim :-((((
