Okay, so my oldest son is 12 (13 this summer). I remember that when I was 12 I had a "boyfriend". Granted back then, that meant that we held hands if we went to a school function. I didn't even have my first kiss til I was 14 or so. Well, apparently my son has a "girlfriend". He is apparently being pressured by another boy to kiss her. What do you think? How should I approach my son about this? Its not like I will kill him if he kisses a girl! I just don't want him to do something that he does not want to do because of feeling pressured. So, what would you do? Say something? Stay out of it? Let me hear your thoughts.

i think this situation happens with young kids. actually now the society has changed a lot than what it was earlier. so has the children. look if he wants to tell you someti=hing himself. no need to push the panic button.

My son is not even three and he got dozens of girl friends. He even kisses and get kissed by all of them. As long as your son is good in his studies and daily routine, do not bother to correct him for kissing or having a girl friend.
