[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We allowed this from 17 onwards in the context of a committed relationship. My kids have turned out great and are both in good long-term relationships, one is engaged. I don’t really care what anyone else does.[/quote] No one should be in a committed relationship at 17 .[/quote] I'm a PP who finds this whole trend bizarre. And it's mostly for the reason that the PP above notes. No one should be so attached to their HS boyfriend/girlfriend that they're routinely sleeping over. Forget the sex, they're just too young for become part of the family. I'm in my 50s and one of my oldest friends is still obsessed with her HS boyfriend who dumped her when we were 17 and destroyed her self-esteem. [/quote] It really isn't age appropriate. They aren't adults. And I see the impact of such permissive parenting in my office every day. You can and should set limits for your kids and their dating habits they need you to.[/quote]
