Please help and please be gentle.

Firstly I am completely clueless as I has a VERY strict upbringing - no male friends, certainly no boyfriends, no evening socialising - you get the picture. Very strict indian upbringing.

My dd is 15 and has a number of older friends ( 16 -18) who are generally lovely. I get the impression that the group of friends are the sort who often end up snogging each other.

We recently went on holiday and there were lots of teenagers in resort who generally socialised together. I think DD probably snogged a few lads over the fortnight. She did become known as a bit of a flirt but I think it was harmless fun.

Is this normal behaviour for a 15 year old? My experience is so skewed I don't know. I don't want to come down all hard but neither do i want her to be inappropriate. Help please and be gentle please

Sounds perfectly normal to me OP. Sounds like every other 15 year old girl having fun and reassuring to know she has a good circle of friends at home.

So normal. So, so painfully normal.

Wish I could be 15 and snogging at bus stops after school again!
