In reply to Gina. Aww, thank you! I also have a daughter and I sometimes hate the double standard with boys and girls. I want my sons to treat the women in their life just like I want my daughter's future boyfriend to treat her.

Thank you so much for this article. I have three daughters. My oldest started dating three months ago. I’ve been telling my girls these same things for years, but coming from a boy’s mum it seems more powerful. My girls will definitely be reading this ;).
Have a nice day

I have to say it was like a walk down memorie lane reading your lovley article! My parents started to let me date in a serious relationship as soon as i turned 13 and he was 17 ! Bad idea,i went through no freinds,to loosing myself,i also was abusied physically, and mentally! I hung in there for 5 years then dumped him! Came back for more at 24 and nothing had changed for the good,we have an 11 yr old daughter he has nothing to do with! She was a preemie and i did all the N.I.C.U. work for a month as well and at home, plus he had two beatiful daughters 3 and 1 ,it ripped my heart out to leave again after 3 yrs for the kids, but i needed to let us find happy…THANK YOU!

In reply to Tara. Thank you! It's so hard when they start dating. All you can do is hope your child makes good choices.

In reply to Sasha. I do tell my son the same things but this wasn't a letter to my son.

How about telling your son the same things? Boys feel just as deeply as girls and are possibly MORE likely to give up thwmselves, their friends and their goals for a girl. Mother of a son should keep this in mind while worrying about the welfare of her son’s girlfriend.

In reply to Aly Wise. I'm so happy you found it helpful. Just remember to be yourself! If he doesn't like it then he's not the one.
