The controversy became so much that BBC News consulted a social etiquette expert, Liz Brewer to weigh in. She said, “"normally with a member of your family you don't kiss on the lips unless it's your husband...I would be uncomfortable doing that and I think most people would be. If she feels it's appropriate, so be it. I wouldn't say it sets a particularly good example."

The post is now flooded with positive comments and moms coming to her defense by posting photos of themselves kissing their daughters. One commenter wrote, "The fact that so many people sexualize a photo of a mother with her child is so disgusting. This is a beautiful photo and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it."
