[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that it is great that she feels like she can say this to you OP. But at age 11, I would gently explain to her that what she is likely feeling for these girls is admiration, rather than a "crush" in the way that she may think of boys. I would be concerned about an 11 year old who had a concept of sexual feelings either way.[/quote] I had crushes on boys at 9 or 10. What's wrong with thinking that someone could have similar same sex crushes at that age. It isn't about sex but it is about attraction. OP - you did fine. My 11 year old came out last year as lesbian. At this point it's being there and saying you love them no matter what. I have had to have conversations about how the conservative side of the family may take it. [/quote]
