Q.

#AskTheExpert my 15 months old baby boy doesn't give me hugs and kisses..he doesn't show any affection towards me... is it normal? he is just bothered about his toys and his wants. When do babies start showing affection?

A. Babyhug# Why it happens: For young children, resisting physical affection is a way of showing independence and asserting control ("I'm in charge of my body now!"). While toddlers of both genders may resist hugs and kisses, boys may reject Mommy's kisses as a way of dealing with their strong attraction to her.
