[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When your teenager has their bf or gf over, where do they hang out? Where are you? How often do you interact with them/make your presence known? My oldest (daughter) has her first boyfriend and it sounds like they have a lot of plans to hang out over the upcoming break. DH and I both had very hands off parents so we are trying to figure out the balance of giving them space/privacy but also wanting to make sure things dont go too far.[/quote] Op our dd is only 12. Her middle school bc is 12. I want to ban it, but I know how I reacted when my mom banned my dating until older. I did it anyway, and now without ANY guidance. So here we are. So far they barely talk because, again it’s middle school. But they want to get together once over the break. At his house. And now this new experience have arrived. It’s like, this first occasion isn’t going to make or break us. But, it sets a precedent. I wish it was planned at our house. Even then, I’m feeling his parents being just as cautious as us. Again, it’s not an issue for this time, but this could set a path for future expectations…[/quote]
