[quote=Anonymous]It’s pretty normal for kids this age, pp- seriously, ice cream after a game- your kids will either want to start doing stuff like that soon, or I would worry about their social skills. I very night home with your parents is unusual.

OP- I think it’s reality that young women/girls face different dangers out and about than young men to a degree.  I wouldn’t let that dictate what I allow d v what her brother can do but I would be very clear on why she needs to be a little extra cautious.

You g people can be fearless because they haven’t had anything bad happen ... my parents gave me more freedom than my peers as a teen but I had a lot of rules to follow.  Checking in, curfews etc.

And jones the best thing my parents did was talk to me about staying in control- no drinking or getting in cars with other people were the big ones.  I had.a car at 15.5 (the soonest I could get a permit) and having my own transportation was huge.  I never had to be somewhere that had a bad vibe and I had to stay sober... kids have Uber now and I would give her and her brother full permission to call for an Uber or lyft any time they felt they should if they were out.  Never let either kid regardless of gender feel like they have no options to get away from somewhere if needed.

And curfew + GPS app on kids phones are musta -[/quote]
