Be it her fight against breast cancer or her day-to-day health and fitness routine, Chhavi Mittal's social media is a candid peek into her life. As such, the actor-producer often shares endearing pictures and videos with her children and husband. However, the same has raised eyebrows as Chhavi is often seen kissing her kids - Arham and Areeza - in those pictures. Addressing the same, she took to Instagram to share such comments that she received upon posting these pictures. While a user wrote, "We should not kiss our kids like that. I will consider this as child abuse", another added: "Bollywood will monkey the west and justify everything." Slamming such comments, Chhavi wrote that it's unimaginable that some people can object to how a mother loves her kids. "The comments that came in my support of this troll’s comment are not just in my support, they are in support of humanity. Love. Unfathomable love," she added.

I teach them to be unabashed about showing love, and they reciprocate." She continued by saying that the only thing she teaches her kids is to shy away from hurting people. "Especially, the ones they love," she wrote. While several users came out in support of Chhavi, others expressed their concerns regarding hygiene and educating little babies about good and bad touch. In a subsequent post, the 42-year-old shared her thoughts on these "well-meaning concerns". She said, "For me, love supersedes everything. I will not, not kiss my babies because I feel it's not hygienic. By that logic, all kissing should be banned. Besides, as a parent, my biggest responsibility is to make my children feel secure and loved. I have seen way too many insecure adults around to take that chance with my kids. All trolling, judgments, fear, negative emotions, incompetence, lack of confidence, self-doubt, and everything else range from deep-rooted insecurity."

"That will just confuse the little ones. As a parent, it's my responsibility to protect them and keep them safe at this age. I can't expect them to protect themselves by means of 'knowledge' of good and bad touch." She continued, "All parents of pre-teens/teens/post-teens will agree that children learn far more in the outside world than we can ever teach them. They will learn lying, cheating, being mean, hating, being vengeful, defiance, and so much more without our approval. Hence, I want to leave no stone unturned in teaching them how to love unabashedly, how to be themselves, confidence, and to respect others. All that comes with a deep sense of security." Chhavi concluded by asserting that she will continue to love them in her way. "In my love language, which is a lot of kissing, hugging, cuddling, and dancing. And so should you! Thank you for sharing pictures of you kissing your kids on the mouths. They were all adorable," she wrote. 📣 For more lifestyle news, follow us on Instagram | Twitter | Facebook and don't miss out on the latest updates!
