[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]What are your family's rules about dating for this age group?[/b] Our family rule was NO DATING until they were in 2nd year of college and at least 19 years old. They were encouraged to paint us as super strict parents to get out of all kinds of peer pressure and uncomfortable situations. A boy who was interested in my DD in school, asked her friend to be his girlfriend in less than 15 minutes once my DD told him that we were very strict. My DD was amused how quickly he found a substitute. Good lesson for her. [b]Did our conservative guidance from K-12 depress or anger our kids? Did they become social outcasts? Did they rebel in college? Are they nerds?[/b] Nope. Mainly because we were wish fulfilling in other ways - loving family, frank communication, creating a vibrant social network of family and friends for them, giving them a sense of purpose, having a close knit and functional family, the privilege of a UMC-adjacent lifestyle etc. [/quote] Did your daughter go to Homeschool University in college, or do you have a vivid fantasy of what she was doing in college? WTH is "UMC-adjacent lifestyle "? That whole long post reads like fanfic. [/quote]
