[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a lot easier to say no dating when your kid isn’t interested or no one them. I have one of those. I also have one who is interested that needs a different approach even though previously I always not until a certain age.

My DC has a classmate who shares a home room with a boy that she has been “seeing” for a few months. The family is very religious and expressly forbids any boy relationship or even going to a dance before the age of 16. Guess what? The girl and the boy get to school early in the morning and hookup in empty classrooms before the teachers arrive. Are they having sex? Probably not - but it’s a relationship. If your DC is really interested I’m not sure anything outside of homeschool is a sure thing. And this girl had no social media, no Snap.[/quote]

After school clubs are the biggest culprit.  Mom thinks they are in yearbook and they are under the bleachers making out [/quote]

Some kids will understand the dangers or at least respect their parents enough to follow the parents directive.  Others will sneak about trying to curtail all the rules set up.  I agree if a kid wants to break any rule whether it be dating, drugs, sex, cheating, stealing, etc., that kid will find a way.  But building strong parental relationships, setting up barriers, keeping them busy, and of course keeping them guessing with the occasional club stop by all help.[/quote]
