[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so bizarre and gross to me. Why are you encouraging your child to do this?[/quote] I’m not OP, but in my case I’m not encouraging it, but I’m also not forbidding it. My parents forbade dating, and my response was to date and lie to them about it. My daughter, on the other hand, talks to me about boys and dating and feels comfortable asking me for advice. She’s never alone with the kid and the big excitement last week was that she hugged him. When I was 13 (way back in the late 80s) kids in my grade were “dating.” It’s not a new thing. [/quote] I'm in Ashburn and none of the kids are "dating" this young. There is a lot of hanging out in groups and maybe a trip or two to the Ice House with a parent or the movies. [b]Studies show this is not a good thing to be encouraging.[/b] [/quote] I’d be very curious to see a link to those studies you’re talking about.[/quote]
