[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it’s a big deal to change or evolve the plan.
What? Are we supposed to lock in our plans with friends on September 1? What if someone asks you, and you want to go with them on September 5?

Evolve the plan. Your dd should check in with her friend. They should choose 3-4 other friends, boys and girls, and see if group will go.

I’ve also taught my kids just bc you have a date, it’s ok to go with them but just check in with the date, back and forth. Hang with your friends, connect with the date briefly, etc.
It’s not like a 9th grade date (or whatever grade) needs to be extremely romantic and alone.[/quote]
Wait? How is the other girl supposed to just manifest a date? No one has asked her. The OPs child will have a DATE. That’s different than a friend group of four. It’s not fair. She just goes with her friend and will see this boy there. [/quote]

Whoosh it went over your head. “How is the other girl supposed to just manifest a date?”
**I did not suggest it** so it went over your head.
I said dd and friend need to branch out overall. Find 3-4 friends of any gender, girls and boys mixed, whatever.
Get a group going.

Principle being—was dd and friend going to only have eyes for each other all night?
Were dd and possible new date only going to have eyes for each other all night?
Everyone involved needs to branch out.
Dd and friend said “let’s go together” because they don’t want to feel alone. But they should have a larger group on hand. 1 is already too few people.

More people![/quote]
