I have to say I agree with Nickle, linking to sexual abuse seems like paranoia to me - and in my mind devalues the article a little. Nothing wrong with appreciating little ones have and need boundaries which should be respected but I find it a bit over the top, and I would not like to live in a world where people daren't share a smile, a compliment and a pat on the head in the supermarket.

Personally what I find weird and always have as never part of my life growing up, is the encouragement of children to cuddle each other when saying bye, I don't get it, why not just a wave.
