I have 2 boys and 2 girls and my boys are 7 and 9 y/o. My oldest boy likes to show how tough and independent he is but he still likes to snuggle with me on the lounge. He has started to ignore me in public lol but I have expected that.

My 7 y/o is the complete opposite. He has always been a snuggle bun : ) He is starting to show his independence too so will expect all PDA to stop soon to.

All my children are loving and love to have kisses and cuddles (my eldest is 13). I'm glad that all of them have not stopped wanting our kisses and hugs.

I haven't found any difference between my girls and my boys in the affection stakes.
