My youngest daughter started high school this week. The #1 response to all my questions to her about the first week of school is there's so many hot guys, Mom.
Then I get to hear her dilemma about who's cuter, Taylor or Tyler, and how she can't decide which one to go out with because she likes them both and doesn't want to hurt either one's feelings. (Oh, if she only knew that this struggle will present itself about a hundred more times!)
It all makes me cringe a little inside, but I try not to show my fear. I have to have faith in her. She is really excited about school nd this new chapter in her life. She wants to be good and make me proud. And I am truly grateful that she feels comfortable enough to talk to me about boys.
No need to be alarmed at her admiration for the other sex. She is a teenager now, and she is my daughter. As they say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
