Bolt torque to set mold

Not sure if this is a universal number, but does anyone have a number to torque bolts down for molds when setting in the press? Specifically for the toe clamps.

I'm trying to get our shop away from feelings. I want black and white numbers.

My first thought is to check the bolt specification and then check to see what force I need to ensure the friction of the mold and platen is sufficient, then use X number of toe clamps to exceed that number.

Kissing on mouth during princess roleplay

My daughter is big into princesses. That makes me (dad) the prince. What makes me uncomfortable is when my daughter wants to kiss me on the mouth because we just got married or something similar.

Obviously this is all for play but sometimes I feel like she may try to kiss me "passionately" like you would see in a Disney movie because she does watch them.

A peck on the lips I'm fine with and maybe I just draw the line there?

Idk, never grew up kissing my parents on the lips. That was for mom and dad. I tried drawing the line at cheek kissing with my daughter today because "kissing on the lips is how mom and dad show they love each other" then this girl has to break my heart and say "but dont you love me?" It was hard to catch my bearings after that.
