[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it's trendy. But it's not a big deal. What type of influence are you concerned about this having on your child?[/quote] OP here. I'm not sure about what type of influence, just it was so odd for this girl to blurt out (in front of me) while talking to my DD and their other friend that[b] she is a pansexual and all her Valentine's dating plans are "wide open."[/b] In general, my DD is not really into talking about dating, boys, etc. I know she has had "crushes" on male tv characters/celebrities. [/quote] Are you sure she wasn't joking? I have an 8th grade daughter whose friends are a wry, sarcastic and quirky bunch. Some are trying out different ideas about their sexual orientations. I can very easily see one of them making a comment like this, and I would have laughed. Yes, this particular girl may be attention-seeking (or more attention-seeking than most her age), but I am really missing what the big worry is here.[/quote]
