Especially for the opposite gender like a mom doing it to her son or a father doing it to his daughter? Is it allowed because kids get used to it for the long term? Is it good for them to get caressed?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\" data-contrast=\"none\">Also, kindly mention apart from private or inner body parts apart from that, are they allowed to do it on One&#8217;s back even over the clothing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\" data-contrast=\"none\">What about the forehead or head massages or tingling their feet?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\" data-contrast=\"none\">Also, if it is allowed, when is it allowed till? Like my kid is 7 yr old, she asks us to do it on a daily basis. She is habituated to being caressed on the back of her clothing by both her parents, is this allowed? Is there no harm for her to ask her parents to caress her on her back?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:225,&quot;335559739&quot;:338,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;
