Far east – it is a clear halachah not to show affection publicly, don’t remember chapter and verse without looking it up. It is a very obvious application of Tznius – of course, we could question exactly what could be called “showing affection”. The idea here is that in the privacy of your home it is different, even though its in front of the kids. This is already a question of sechel (or if there are sources, I’m not aware. Never looked into it too much)
