[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I trailed along with DD and her friend at that age, but didn't interact too much with them. A year or so later I sat down in the mall with a book to read and had her text every 20 minutes or so and also come in person. She thought that was draconian but them's the rules. [/quote] This is a nice combination of “overprotective” and finding a way within that to let the kid have some freedom. She could text subtly. [/quote] No. It's bordering on crazy for 13 almost 14 year olds. At any rate, NOTHING that parent is doing is preventing the mostly imaginary fear of kidnapping. At best, it is shortening the response time to an event, but barely. [/quote]
