[quote=Anonymous]OP, setting aside the issue of boys vs girls (even though I know that’s a central part of this debate) - if your daughter is a good kid who’s responsible and has a good group of friends who largely stay out of trouble, limiting her from harmless social activities will make her resent the fact that you don’t trust her. It would be one thing if she was sneaking out at 3 am and never answering her phone. But to say she won’t be allowed to go get ice cream and occasionally be out until 10:30 instead of 9:30 or whatever isn’t really fair to her. It doesn’t sound like she’s given you any reason to doubt that she would be responsible at your home town ice cream place. Treating her with kid gloves because you’re worried about how she will react in an unlikely emergency will almost assure that she is terrified in all new situations.[/quote]
