Tom Brady Explains Long Kiss on the Lips With His 11-Year-Old Son
“That was just a peck,” the football superstar said when his 11-year-old son Jack gave him a quick kiss on the lips. He then prompted Jack to kiss him again for a few seconds longer. The boy, seemingly annoyed, then wipes his lips with his shirt as he walks away. This scene from a docuseries on Brady’s life caused a stir online, and many people believe the Super Bowl winner shouldn’t have asked his son for another kiss on the lips.
He asked his son to give him a second, longer kiss.
In the docuseries, Brady is getting a massage when his 11-year-old son Jack peeks in and asks his dad if he could check his fantasy football standings. Brady playfully responds, asking Jack, “What do I get?” and the boy walks over and plants a quick smooch on his father’s lips. Brady jokingly complains that the kiss was too short, and Jack leans in again, giving his dad a longer kiss on the mouth.
Experts believe he’s sending a mixed message with his actions.
Many people criticized Brady online. Some parenting experts were even concerned that it might send the wrong message. “I don’t think affection should ever be tied in with a favor. You don’t do anything with your body because someone else is insisting that you do it in order for you to get what you want,” a social worker and parenting expert Carolyn Meyer-Wartels said.
However, Brady openly spoke up about his devotion to his kids. “I had kissed my son in a very loving way — I love my children more than life itself,” he explained.
He is a devoted father of three.
Brady has a son named John Edward Thomas Moynahan from his relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan, and two children, a son named Benjamin Rein Brady and a daughter named Vivian Lake Brady, from his marriage to supermodel Gisele Bündchen.
The football superstar opened up about his concern that his children might grow up with the wrong understanding of reality. “We have people that clean for us. We have people that make our food. That’s my kids’ reality which is the hard part to say, guys, this is not the way reality really is,” he shared.
He is a very affectionate father.
On his Instagram account, Tom Brady often shares the most heartwarming and touching pictures of himself showering his children with love and affection. These sweet moments show the strong bond he shares with his kids and reflect the love and joy he feels as a dad. Through these pictures, he gives his fans a glimpse of the loving and caring side of his life off the football field.
The recent trend of celebrities kissing their children on the lips has sparked heated discussions among parents and experts. While some consider it a genuine display of affection, a psychologist has expressed concerns about potential negative effects on children’s development.
