I read some article on some website about "My child's body is her own and I am not going to make her hug her grandma if she doesn't feel like hugging grandma that day."
Thoughts?
Whose body is it?
Depends on the situation. If grandma is fine and the kid is just being whiny, make that kid hug her. If grandma is being creepy and annoying, side with the kid.
I was going to say something like this as well.

I just came across the original article.
