[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's missing from this conversation is the factor of having, or not having, older siblings.  Very often kids who have older siblings are going to be doing things, and seeing things, sooner than your kids because they will get included in stuff that their older siblings are doing.

It is a reality that will be in play all through high school even -- your kid will have friends with siblings who are in college or working.

It is a good thing to start discussing -- in small doses -- as your kid is growing up.  So yes, she may well have friends who did xyz - largely because those friends have older siblings and they were included.

As all siblings can tell you, there is good and bad associated with the inclusion.  Our oldest will certainly discuss not be allowed to do   . . .  when he was young.  And, our youngers will certainly discuss being forced to go along to . . . . because they had to.  It is part of family life.

Yep.  Planning to watch it soon w/my 11 yo and 13 yo DDs.  I wouldn't have let the older one watch it when she was 11, but the younger one is more mature.
