[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine is 13 and just started going on solo dates with a very nice boy! I was not okay with it at first but [b]honestly they will do it behind your back if you don’t “let” them.[/b] I know this because I snuck around in middle school plenty. [/quote] Not true.[/quote] Age of puberty and developing an interest in dating actually runs in families. So PP is wise to acknowledge that her child is experiencing similar feelings to hers. What and when she allows and how she talks about it are delicate issues. It's true that if the kids really want to be intimate, they'll find ways to do it... which is why sex ed is there, and the parent should reinforce it. If you're a late-blooming family, great. You can worry about others things. [/quote]
