Tom, a father from Yorkshire, England, is going viral — not for doing anything shocking, but for showing affection to his 5-year-old son, Roman. His offense? Kissing his child on the lips.

After sharing sweet moments with his son on TikTok, Tom faced harsh criticism from online trolls who claimed his behavior was “confusing” or “inappropriate.” But instead of backing down, Tom clapped back with humor and heart.

In one video, Tom jokes, “So I kiss my son and now he’ll get cavities?” Roman giggles and says, “Don’t be silly!” before giving his dad another kiss. In another clip, Tom asks Roman what he thinks of people saying it’s wrong. Roman replies confidently, “You are all crazy. That’s my daddy!”

Tom points out the double standard — if a mother kissed her son, no one would say a word. But as a father, he’s accused of being inappropriate. His response? “I’m not changing anything.”

Despite the backlash, thousands of supporters have rallied behind Tom, praising his loving bond with his kids and calling out the critics for turning innocent affection into controversy.

Tom’s message is simple: “We should be teaching our kids love and boundaries—not shame.” And we couldn’t agree more.
