DS2 (12) was quite good friends with a girl when he was at primary school and I used to let them play in his room for hours on end, no problem, just going up to check on them occasionally. He had another girl round one day this week and I, still thinking of him as my "little boy", just waved them on up to his bedroom without a care in the world.
DD1 has been on Facebook, come downstairs and said "I didn't know DS2 was going out with S", S being the girl he had round . I still think of him as being so young at 12 (although now I think about it he has smelt overpoweringly of Lynx for the last couple of weeks so I should probably have known ). The older DCs were all at least 14 when they had their first boyfriends/girlfriends; 12 is that funny in between age where everyone is at such different stages of development that you're not quite sure what to expect
Should I let them go in his room together in future or should I insist they stay downstairs where I can keep an eye on them?
Also, do I need to have another "talk" with DS about...well, I don't know what about really. I don't want to put ideas in his head but if the ideas are already there I'd like to discourage them. But how do I do both??!
