TOTW: Your Kids and Dating

As all of us who are parents know, our little ones grow up right before our eyes……and it happens fast. One day they are getting their first teeth, next thing we know they want to be going on their first date. So, what age will you let your child start dating? Does it make a difference what gender they are?

How about as kids – do you think it is ok for young kids to say they have a “girlfriend” or “boyfriend”. What sets this special friend aside from their other friends? If they are just best friends, would you encourage your child to just call the friend their best friend instead of their girlfriend or boyfriend?

How do you feel about boy/girl sleepovers? What age do they stop?

I know, lots of questions……but we haven’t had a topic of the week in a while and I wanted to kick it off. Please feel free to add your own questions.
