Teen Daughter Starting to Date
My daughter is a 14 yr old freshman and will be 15 this Nov was recently asked out on "date" for Sat afternoon movie. My wife will be the chaperone but the plan is to let them see the movie alone and ice cream afterwards. They both attend an academic magnet school and the encounters we've had with the young man have been positive (he was polite) so we're not worried that he's a troublemaker, and we plan on talking with his parents as well.
As a father, I'm not sure how to take all of this I remember when I was 14 and that scares me. There is also a since of loss since she I will no longer be "my little girl" as this and other boys start trolling by.
I'm trying not to freak out but dammit it's tough.... Any TFPers have any similar experiences?
