I've never hugged my brothers, so any physical contact would be uncomfortable for us-I am greatly uncomfortable even hugging my parents-it's just something that didn't happen in our family (amazing none of us grew up to be psycho killers!). Growing up, my family was very cold as far as showing or even talking about any kind of affection. I do the opposite now that I have my own kids and family, we are very, very close and affectionate and I think it's great. Hugs and kisses all the time!! It's personal, it really depends on how close you are, how you grew up and your culture.
What is an appropriate level of contact between siblings?
