I have a daughter who will be 9 next month. She is starting to talk about boys and how she wants this one boy to be her boyfriend. This has just been happening in the last month or so, and I've kind of been dodging it. It could go two different ways. I could tell her she's too young (which she is!!) and then I'm scared she won't talk to me about stuff in the future if she thinks I am going to always disagree with her. Or either I could seem to be ok with it, so she will always come to me, but I can't really do that either. I just don't really know how to handle this. I can't keep on dodging it.
So I guess my question is how did you handle it (and what age) when your daughter started getting into boys?
