Why the hell is it that I’m finding <a href=”http://www.parentsoup.com/experts/preteens/”>this</a> so absolutley fascinating? I dunno, maybe the grief is making me crazy, but listening to all the overprotective parents angst about their kids is kind of fun. Plus it makes you feel sorry for their poor spawn. Geesh. Some parents make such a big deal out of things, especially when it comes to girls playing with boys. Um, excuse me? What’s wrong with that? Getting within five meters of a boy doesn’t instantly turn you into a randy sex goddess (actually probably quite the opposite, as you actually get to see how boys <i>really</i> are… heh, no offence, guys). Still, the Advice Ladies have some good stuff to say, even if it is a little stricter than I’m personally used to (well, was; I’m now a Big Girl and can Look After Myself).
