DS still gives me a peck on the cheek, not a full blown hug. I lean towards him and he does the same. He’s 19. Start doing it now. I like the idea of sitting when he reaches to you for a hug. You can squeeze him just as hard but the location isn’t inappropriate

Im careful when hugging my big boys (10 and older) to not have my chest near their face. I lean to hug them.
I dont think its inappropriate but I dont want to make them or me uncomfortable.

Tell your husband it's inappropriate that he thinks it's inappropriate and to adjust his mindset. My mom acted weird about my oldest son playing rough and tumble with his young siblings coz they were kinda lying on top of him and my kids got really disgusted and upset with her because of that. While stuff happens it's not the norm unless there is dysfunctionality happening. In health situations these contacts between immediate family are healthy and normal
