[quote=Anonymous]It's not the gender, but the child in question, and the impact on his college prospects. My son has severe ADHD and when he was in high school, he needed to focus 100% on his studies. I would NOT have welcomed an intense relationship at this point in his life. From your end, it doesn't seem intense, but maybe his parents are privy to a different side of things and they've noticed he's more distracted, and are attributing this, perhaps wrongly, to the girlfriend. My high school daughter, OTOH, would probably not be fazed by such a relationship. She manages her time well, knows her priorities, has a good head on her shoulders, etc. You as the parent of the girl in question cannot change the other parents' concerns or opinions, but you can respect them. All you need to do is stay neutral and avoid encouraging the relationship. If it survives, it survives. [/quote]
