[quote=Anonymous]I mean, age is pretty arbitrary. Isn't it more meaningful to consider how to evaluate the maturity level of a young person who wants to date? What do they need to know, what should they be capable of. In our household, there is no minimum age. But we talk often about needing to be safe and ready for any kind of sexual relationship -- including dating -- and we break down what that means in context to my teens. We also stress that being independent and taking responsibility is a part of any good sexual relationship -- and that includes courtship. So our kids, boys and girls (who are not all straight, btw -- yours may not be, either!) know they need to be transportation-independent and pay their own way. Which they do. [/quote]
