[quote=Anonymous]I'm not clear on this -- are both these girls lesbians or are they just "experimenting"? Frankly I will be in the minority here and go with the other mom.

I realize that DCUM and the DC area is REALLY pro gay, but I can see why the other mom (i) doesn't want her gay daughter acting on her feelings; or (ii) doesn't want her potentially straight daughter experimenting with yours to and deciding she's gay.

I think the relationship is over no matter what anyone says, so I wouldn't waste your time with lunch. It's no different than a boy-girl relationship where one side says "sorry my kid is not allowed to date at 15 and bc I know you two want to date, he/she isn't hanging out with you." What do the typical teenage boy and girl do in that case? They basically see each other at school and/or at other events outside of school that are not in either home. Your DD and her "friend" can do the same. As for your DD losing one of her few friends -- I'm sorry but didn't she realize that the other girl has parents and if those parents don't approve, they will step in and make the friendship hard to continue? At 15 most boys get that if they ask a girl to date and her parents step in and say no, that's pretty much it. They can then find another girl or find guy friends to hang out with but a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship will be next to impossible. This can't be news to a teenager and particularly one who is considering being gay (yes I do think it's a choice to act on those feelings). Does she not realize that there are tons of people out there who WON'T support her? These are the things you should be talking to her about.[/quote]
