Re: What should I do about my daughter and her crush? | | Oh I'd be furious with my girls..totally furious!
First of all, her approaching him at all with a note is totally unacceptable. She is a young girl and it is not her place to make contact with him. She can think he's 'hot' all she wants (to herself).. but when she makes the move to talk to him she crossed the line of inappropriate - Let alone touching him and making a spectacle of herself at the pool!
I would let her know right now that nothing will ever ever ever happen with this man. Let her know he would be in jail in the blink of an eye. Also let her know how inappropriate it is for her to be communicating with him - and if it happens again there will be major consequences (major grounding or whatever).
It's bad enough that we have to deal with this "boy crazy" stage (i have twin 15year old girls) - but if they start approaching adult strangers they are crossing a major line and need to be reeled back in. Watch her like a hawk.. correct her if she even says anything about him. Say it's not cool, it's not cute, it's not how proper girls act, it's inappropriate and you don't want to hear another thing about it from her.
Good luck! |
