Don't know if I'm being PFB about this. DD (14) has recently got her first boyfriend. She's at all all girls' school, the boy is from the all boys' school nearby. DD has known the boy for a few weeks, DH has met him and a few of his friends (they were in a band together for a few weeks till DD dropped out). I've stalked him on FB and he seems OK - lots of female friends though no idea if they're girlfriends (ie if he goes it with loads of girls) or not. He seems like a normal enough teenage boy and they have some (vague) mutual friends so hope he wouldn't try anything on.
So, DD has told me (not asked me) she's going to his house this Thurs and claims (I have no way of checking) that his parents (who I don't know) will be there. Also no idea what is acceptable to his parents anyway. So I feel mildly uncomfortable.
Not sure what I'm worried about - am I being too neurotic/over-protective and should I just let DD go and accept it as part of the growing-up process? Or should I be worried? He's invited her to his house several times before - seems keen - though this was before she knew him very well or was going out with him, so I said no. Should I just let her go, or are there are limitations I can add? (eg I must have his parents' no or something)?
Thanks.
