God bless you and her :)

Just hang tight a yr and get back to me....

P.S. My daughter is 14

The "problem" isn't the phone. Sounds like she's becoming active regardless of the phone.

What would Chinese Tiger Mother do?

Lol, I might recommend setting the bar a little higher.:D

The can't use phones. They have no thumbs.

I also have a 13 yr.old daughter, and almost the same situation as yours occurred (although it didn't get past the 'have you ever kissed a boy?' stage). When we found out about it, we brought her into our bedroom and sat down to discuss the matter with her. We did not yell; we simply wore our 'serious' faces and told her that this was inappropriate conversation for a girl of her age.

She was initially mortified that we found out, and then became a bawling mess from embarrassment and shame. I really think that discussing the issue with her in love vs. screaming and the threat of punishment was the best way to go.

Of course, she knows now that at any time, I will ask who she's texting and will need to read the texts if I am suspicious in the slightest.

With 2 more daughters coming up after her, I expect to be 100% gray within 5 years.

how many of you all have daughters that erase every text they get and make when they come in?

Mine does, but right now we do not let her do much without mom and dad.
Thank God she does not like to do sleepovers...

Me too, and she likes sleep overs. :(

see thats what worries me, my sister was 2 years younger than me and some of her friends were my age, now I never banged them when I was 12 or anything but I sure could have if I wouldn't have been scared....

I would not let her go to any sleepover a boy is at unless he is like 6 or 7

that includes 15-16 yr old boys, you are playing with fire if you do

Yeah turns out that her buddy that she wants to spend the night at all the times parents are never there....and she has a 16 year old brother, I found that out and went and got her.

hell no dude..... make the girls come to YOUR house then ...

Bad enough to have a horny 16 yr old in the house but a horny 16 yr old with no parents home? Not happening

Mike Ness thanks you.

My mother once asked me if masturbated. I was 12. I told her that was gross and went to my room to masturbate.

IMO ZepSinger's right, and LAChieffan. See the floor? Ask how many friends she has that are pregnant? Put the serious face on, reinforce the talk. Her ceiling means a lot to you, as you want her to enjoy as much success as she can. Boys can be trouble, and we sure know how they think! 2 cents....

OK, read the topic for the post talk update.
Critiques wanted.

Can't believe I'm that guy to ask CP for advice but thanks guys.
Great ideas and input.
