Our dd has had multiple boys and girls ask her to date them in open relationships including threesomes. I have told her absolutely not and I think she is too young to be dating period let alone multiple people at once (requests for open dating started at 13 rather than 11).

She does follow rules of no nudes and vulgar social Media posts but it is mind boggling how much more aware young people are of many sex and gender topics. Her friends identify as pan/ trans/ bi/ non binary etc. i had not heard of any of this before late teens.

Her friends seem to accept the no poly dating rules and no sharing nudes. DD knows I don’t care how she identifies gender wise but it is wise to be discreet about it in MS as there is so much drama already.

They are 11.

Actually, it's positive.

Isn't it better to explore who you are at a young age vs. older?

One of my friends came from a conservative family where she was told how to dress and even simple earrings were forbidden. Now she's one of those weirdo adults with rainbow hair, tons of piercings, and a terrible fashion sense (leopard print everything!).

Oh no! Not a terrible fashion sense! 😱

My kids are both gender and sex-questioning right now and we get a ton of backtalk if we don't use the new name and pronoun they prefer. They like to use it at strategic moments. I'm not transphobic, I just want you to unload the dishes and do your homework!

They’re eleven? Is it common for eleven-year-olds to have girlfriends/boyfriends these days? All the kids in my life are much younger so I don’t have a sense of what the tween norms are now.

Stop being so judgey and bigoted!

No.

Why not have a kids sleepover party?

I'm so glad to not have to deal with this. If I did, I would not allow any dating much less group dating. Doesn't have to do with your pronouns, but you obviously aren't mature enough to understand any of it. You can have friends and that's it.

Good luck with that, Mr. Capulet.

I believe it's LORD Capulet.

oh, how I long for long hair'd British rockers and hound-dog hip thrusts.

Hahahah, OP, I love this image! I have a friend with two long-term partners who intensely hates the term "thruple"; I'm going to tell them about this post next time they're venting about it because I think it will be them laugh.
