Would you let your 14 year old freshman date a 17 year old junior?

Question

Answer

I dated a senior as a freshman. I would just be very clear to the older one that my kid is still too young for anything sexual. And I would be very firm about it, like threatening to tell their parents and all. I would be watching like a hawk! I'd probably say something like "you can date, as long as you understand that my child is still young and I will be watching your every move to make sure you are being respectful and appropriate."

Answer

I feel if you try to stop her it's going to make her resent you and do it anyways or other things she's not supposed to be doing. Just be open and honest with her about everything. There's a reason why you're concerned so talk to her about those reasons and teach her what she needs to know to make smart decisions in every situation.

Answer

I was 15 when I met my boyfriend, and he was nearly 17. We've been together 4 years now, and I'm so glad my parents were so cool with me getting into a serious relationship that young. We've grown up a lot together, an experience many people don't get with their significant other. I'd say let them, the worst that could happen is they break up!
