The first thing that you can do as parents is model healthy boundaries for your kids. I've had boundaries with my son from the very earliest age and I have set boundaries on his behalf. One of the earliest boundaries I set with him or for him was when you visit grandma or grandpa or nana and pop up  you don't have to hug her kiss if you don't want to. It's not about pushing other people away they're about creating a sense of like family in a way that works for everybody.
