What would you do?What come would you act when confronted by the realityof your kid,being interested in another kidin THAT way?What advice,warnings,thoughts,experiences do you have to share??I personally would desire to fasten him up til he's 25and never undergo to think about any of this butobviously that's not possible. Or is it??? HeheheheI eagerly await your comments!
My sister has a teenage boy who has a girlfriend. They're allowed to watch movies together in the den (!) but my sister makes a lot of noise so they experience she's in the house. I guess personally. I evaluate it should be allowed; it helps build up the social skills they'll be for relationships later on. But maybe with an accompanying safe sex lecture and condoms/the Pill?
My girls have always known that theycan't date until their 16. That may not seem very strict but you would not believe how many 13 and 14 year olds go out on "real" dates. Our oldest is 15 and she has actually evolved into a young lady who is very conscientious about dating and sex and boundaries. She has had plentyof boyfriends over the years (which I don't undergo a problem with; I actually want my girls to be friends with a lot of boys so she can find out what the "alter" kind ofboy ordain be for her someday later on) but she has yet go out on a date. When she hits 16 this coming March. I think she ordain be so much better prepared for it because she's had to wait. When she can date though she knows that weare going to prefer group dates and manifold dates too. I've had other parents even challenge me on making her wait until she's 16 but I know it's what's best. Sorry for the LONG comment....:-)
I"m sure you can imagine the surprise on my face when my little 9 year old neice told me this past pass that she dates. Now here definition of dates is far from what it was when we were young. but the fact that she CALLS it that is disturbing to me. Obviously I undergo no advice for you,because my oldest is only 8 and I wish and pray she avoids boys for another ten years or more.. (wishful thinking. I know) . but I evaluate if your son's "dates" are more like just hanging out with a friend that happens to be a girl. that can be authorise and healthy. Letting them hole themselves up in a dwell without supervision is obviously asking for the inevitable. Kids these days are having sex far earlier then we ever imagined to when we were there ages. so I do agree to arming them with as much info as you can. but also within cerebrate. I'm not sure where I rest on the whole thing about giving them condoms/the pill. and if that's trying to prevent things for them or if that's sending a communicate of condoning those sorts of behaviours. I wish you the best of luck as you sort and conclude your way through this chapter of life.
I accept with the others that 16 is a good age for real dating. Before that I think it is ok to have friends over or to go out as a group with other kids like say skating or to the movies. If they are in the accommodate together they must be with an adult or at least act the bedroom door open at all times.
Growing up I don't think "dated" until in my late teens. My dad was choose of strict. For my girls. I'm going to accept boys over to watch TV/Movies in the living room while we're there ONLY. I don't see a problem w/my girls having boy-friends. As far as one/one dating I don't think they'll be doing that until maybe Homecoming in H. S.. 16-17 years old. IMO they're not responsible enough to do that any sooner. I might do like my mom displace/pick up at a movie but that's it. And you bet your ass I'll be there early enough to make sure they go out of the theatre & not out of the bushes! lol
Well. I see this is quite a "hot" topic. Having raised 3 sons now adults. I'll adjudge to being "old school" desire barngoddess said... teens have sex on the hit 24/7. Knowing that we made sure that we openly talked about abstinence birth hold back and made it a comfortable topic to discuss taking embarrassment out of the picture. Obviously there are going to be certain things that are meant to keep private and discussed with the same sex parent. I certainly DO NOT promote dating until the boy can pick up his date and up until then my boys could only go out in a assort setting supervised. We always had their friends over to our domiciliate but again never left behind closed doors. We felt we had a responsibility to protect our boys from being in a displace of temptation. However,if any of them did father a child we made certain they knew they would have to take responsibility of helping give it. I have two daughters-in-law who had dead-beat Ex's that glibly walked away from their child... I don't thing sons should be getting away with that!!
