[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you’re being a bit naive. I’m 5th grade I was kissing my “boyfriend” at my locker and by 6th grade we were sneaking into the locker room to make out and then some after school. And I was not the only one. In middle school these relationships come with physical exploration. [/quote] This is something OP should be aware of, but it all depends on the child's temperament and home life, and dare I say it, social class. UMC 5th graders don't have sex. [/quote] OP here. I have to agree. when I was in middle school, kids were def very active. and some girls and boys were fully active by 8th grade. I know this happens. [b]my child is kind of a wall flower, so not interested in being physical with anyone[/b]. but I think being liked and liking someone is the extent of it. [b]and the boy is very nerdy too[/b]. so they are more like good friends than anything. but I do believe that's how any good relationship should be. even when she gets older. she and a future partner should treat each other as you would a best friend.[/quote] nerds have sex, too, you know? not saying your kid does, but this idea that they are a "wall flower" with no interest whatsoever in the physical aspect of a relationship is a bit delusional. you don't know this. you are not there. you only know what your child tells you, and if they are smart, as you are implying they are, they are not going to tell you everything. doesn't mean whatever they are doing is bad or age-inappropriate. but please stop with the oh no, my child would never ever .... don't you know, we are UMD?[/quote]
