How old should a teenage girl be, to go out with her friends.With out a parent. LIke to a movie to the mall or to a friends house. and for how long.I'm new to all this teenage mothering thing. And I really am not sure. I don't want to be too tight on them and I don't want to be too loose. My girls are 13 and 14. thanks in advance

Hi Dangerous age!! I have a boy and girl (38 and 40 now) Had the same problem..... Dad I am olde enough!!!! This is not going to help much, but you have to make the call! You must know in your mind if you trust them?? How well do you know the friends? Peer pressure will be enormous!!! Bet you they come home and say Oh Jane's mommy lets her do ....... Oh Mary's mommy lets her do ....... Like I said..... not gonna help much. But it is your call!

Thanks for your reply, I do trust them and they have good friends. But I am afraid of who will they meet there when they get there. Well I guess I have some thinking to do

That is what I was thinking. See my parents hardly let me go out with friends at any age. I don't want to be too tight on them. thank you for your reply
