I'm a newbie to this site and feeling v confused tonight. DD who turned 13 last month is going out with a boy who is 16 and a half. The half matters! He came round for tea tonight so i could meet him. He is lovely, very polite, nice family etc but the age difference kills me. They are keeping the whole thing under wraps because at first when people found out, they were both getting tons of stick. Infact they did decide that it wouldn't work but since the summer hols they have started going for walks together etc and are q relaxed about it all. Presumably when school starts again they may start feeling the pressure again. But that's not my real concern - I just wish the age gap was less. i can't exactly forbid her to see him - he's such a nice boy apart from being far too old for her. What do I do?
