My 13 year old daughter has her first "real" boyfriend.
....
Remind me how I'm supposed to react to that one.
She spent the evening at his house having dinner with his parents. I suppose it could be so much worse but still, she is only 13.
I have 3 daughters (11, 5, 4) and my gut feeling is to lock them in the cellar till they are 45 ;-)
Would you feel any different if this was her first girlfriend?
Yes I would, slightly. But only because there is a much reduced chance of her getting pregnant / an STD and screwing up her life.
My daughter is an intelligent and sensible girl. However, 13 year olds are prone to irrational acts (god knows I was) and I worry that she may do something that will have a catastrophic effect on her future.
Sigh. My daughter turns 13 at the end of the month. She doesn't live with me, but has been talking about boys for a while now. I don't think she's been on an actual date yet, but it'll happen soon enough...
