[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I had a son, not a daughter, but I am a high school teacher, and I would NOT want a daughter (or son) dating at 14. [b]Encourage her to focus on a hobby or extracurricular. Encourage her to find friends who HAVE hobbies and interests other than boys. The kids who are going places have other things going on in 8/9th grade, and they date later.[/quote][/b] +1[/quote] Why in the name of Sam Hill do people assume that teens that show interest in dating don’t have hobbies or interests? When I was 14 it was extremely common for kids to “go with” each other. We didn’t generally actually go anywhere together, but the kids were generally recognized as a “couple”, although it was typically rather innocent. Has the world really changed so much that teens are so involved with their extracurricular activities that they no longer express interest in the opposite sex? [/quote]
