Well, I don't have any children yet, but I'm pregnant with a baby which I hope is a girl, haha. My opinion? Let your daughter date him. She's 15, sure she may not be at her maturity peak, but she's a young teenager, and that's okay. You can't keep her as "your little girl" forever, and I know it's hard to let your child go, but it was going to happen sooner or later that she was dating someone older than her. She's 15, he's 18, she's still a minor, and if that's what's concerning you, don't be too worried. I think you should trust your daughter to make the right decision on her own. IF she does end up having sex with him (if that's what you're worried about...) then it's her body, her decision and if she gets hurt in the end, maybe she'll learn her lesson. You have to let kids learn their own lessons. You can't try to shelter them. Now, you were 15 when you had your daughter, and if you were responsible enough to take care of a baby, I certainly think your daughter is responsible enough to make the right choices when she's out on a date with the 18 year old boy.
(By the way, I'm 21, my husband is 24. It's the same age difference as your daughter's and that boy's. It doesn't sound so bad now, does it? It's just because 15 sounds so young and 18 sounds so old compared to that...) This post has been edited by x3chrissyx3: Oct 2 2005, 06:46 PM |

A 21- and 24-year-old are both more mature relative to one another than an 18- and 15-year-old. |
