Afternoon all... I'll jump in on the dating question...

13 is too young. All these kids saying they have a "boyfriend" or "girlfriend', and all I can think is they have NO idea what that really even means. My daughter will not be allowed to date until she is 16 and it will be supervised at that point. I will discourage dating until she is 18. At 13 a kid's attention should be on their schoolwork, not on dating. They are still kids and should enjoy being just that, a kid!

I'm going to play Devil's Advocate here for a bit. Yeah,I wholehearted agree with all that's been said here, but at 13 was your attention on schoolwork, or the cute guy on the other side of the room, or at the desk right next to you? It's easy for us as parents to sit here and talk about what should be, while we choose to forget what was uppermost in our own minds at the same age.

Agreed but this is EXACTLY ouer rule as parents to lay the gide lines for them! Although they think differently!
I said in another trade that ouer most important rule as parents and educators is to give ouer children not what they WANT but what they NEED!
