I don't think it's appropriate for either parent to kiss their children on the lips. Cheeks, top of the head, forehead, all acceptable for deliberate kissing. But kissing on the lips has more sexual connotations in our culture and even when it's done in all innocence, it leaves you open to criticism (at the very least) or worse, open to charges of abuse.
