[quote=Anonymous]My 5th grader has a 'girlfriend'. He's talked to me about her and it's so cute how smitten he is. But I'm in unfamiliar territory here and not sure how to navigate. I grew up in a home where we were not allowed to date. Parents were immigrants and dating just wasn't part of the culture until much older (college age) for them. I didn't have any interest in boys until high school and even then I didn't let my parents know about my crushes. I wasn't allowed to go on dates in high school, much less middle school or elementary. What is the norm for elementary kids having boyfriends and girlfriends? Do they actually go on dates? How do we as parents play a role in this new social scene? Do we call the parents of the girlfriend to discuss dating parameters? I knew this day would come I just didn't expect it to be so early. Please school me on the ins and outs of tween/teen dating! [/quote]
