[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Best age to start dating is when you are sufficiently mature enough to maintain your other responsibilities, handle a breakup without falling part, and have met someone you like who likes you back and treats you respectfully. Same for boys and girls.[/quote]

This sounds good, but in reality I fell in love before I knew if I would love someone who treated me respectfully.  I also couldn’t handle the break up without falling apart.  I wasn’t mature enough, but there I was, in love.

Sometimes you can’t plan this! They will figure it out, even though they may be in pain.[/quote]

Kindly, perhaps our children can learn from our experiences. Maybe teaching them better especially doing away with all this in love = lose all sense and must make bad decisions BS a purely Western notion btw [/quote]

Not everyone gets a carefully curated childhood. Things can happen- I know people whose lives drastically changed because of car accidents while they were in high school as an example. Thinking we are so in charge of our childrens lives if a fallacy - western thought or not.[/quote]

Kindly, you're the parent now so instead of waving your hand and saying well love will suck and she's bound to have bad relationships and make bad choices because of love why not teach her better?

Surely you don't believe in bi suffered so she must to?[/quote]

I’m thinking about a friend who sustained a TBI from a car crash in high school.  It made it difficult for her to make decisions.  If you think her parents didn’t love her and want good things for her, you are incorrect.  She married a guy who abused her.  I’m not talking about teaching kids things.  I’m talking about life events where major trauma happens that effects the way people operate in relationships.  Rape would be another one that comes to mind.  I’m not saying you can’t have a good relationship after being raped, I’m saying it may take a few mistakes before you are able to achieve that.  You seem to thing you can teach your kid out of those mistakes.  I’m saying you cannot control all the situations your daughter will ever be in and that those situations won’t have an affect on her relationship choices.

Kindly, we are going to have to agree to disagree.  I hope you are able to continue to live your life thinking you are in control of everything.

Kindly, we will have to agree to disagree because you are talking out of your ass and intentionally missing the point.

It's totally within your control to teach your kids about healthy relationship dynamics. You choosing not to is simply laziness [/quote]
