Fathers, Sons and Affection

Can father’s show too much affection towards a son? How much is too much?

Smokie Norful is a Grammy award-winning artist.  But we’re not talking about his music.  We’re talking about an old photo that’s getting new life and new criticism on social media.  It’s the photo of Norful and his son, 16-years-old at the time… in an embrace on a sofa.  The son appears to be sleeping.
Why is there still criticism of this photo?  Can father’s show too much affection towards a son? How much is too much?
