[quote=Anonymous]5th grade is early to have unimpeded access to a device w/texting. And early from what I can tell for exclusive 'dating' nowadays too. I would rethink your rules on tech personally. It's not that declarations of love are so dangerous, it's the escalation of a pseudo-romantic relationship, combined with the stupidity of ALL kids w/technology, that I'd worry about. I have a middle schooler btw. I'm also not keen on seeing kids get "serious" early even if it's kind of silly. I had a friend who started "dating" her first boyfriend in 6th grade and it continued until he dumped her as a senior. It left her incredibly insecure, literally for life. Her entire self-image had become wrapped up in this silly childhood romance. [/quote]
