Yes. All three of my children are pretty touchy feely, but my DS1 is particularly in-your-face. I often ask them to get out of my space because I feel smothered. I explain to them that sometimes I need space and I need to be given some time alone without them on me or in my space. I explain I don't love them less, but I just need a time out. I think it is important that they learn about personal space and people's limitations.
