My 12 year old daughter was reading a book containing kissing and caressing. How should we parents react?
"Kissing and caressing?" Seriously? She is 12. By this age, she should already have received some significant sex education. I hate to break it to you, but she already thinks about kissing and caressing. And a lot more. This was true of girls when I was 12 (back in the Late Cretaceous Era), and it's even more true now.Children should be educated frankly about any topic relating to sex as soon as they are old enough to express interest in it. You should discuss facts and your own sexual ethics. And you should discuss it often enough that, as they mature, they will feel comfortable coming to you with questions or concerns.Keeping information from kids and prohibiting them from expressing reasonable curiosity about sex and sexual attraction is not healthy. It creates a sense of shame around the topic and is more likely to lead to risk-taking behaviors. And it doesn't keep them from exploring the topic; all it does is guarantee that they will hide it from you.At 12, your daughter is mostly grown, do you realize that? She really should have begun learning about sex when she was 8 or 9. When I was her age, I knew girls who were already sexually active. And you're worried about kissing?
A boy kissed me...?
So I was close friends with a boy, we would always hang out after school etc. one Saturday night he spent the night at my house and I on sitting down on my bed reading a book and he was looking outside. It was really silent so I said I'd go get some snacks and I was getting out of the room and the awkwardness he grabbed my arm and we were really close! My face was burning I knew it and he was just staring into my eyes I couldn't help but stare but then he leaned in, held my chin up since he was taller than me and kissed me on the lips! I was so shocked I couldn't move but I kissed back and it was a long, passionate kiss (It was my first time, he even knew it). And after a while of kissing he said "Well?" but I had no idea how to respond so I just stayed silent and after that he just smirked and said "Let's get some rest" and I just nodded and I went in bed and I turned my head to the wall and he went in the same bed as me (I had a couch where we would sleep on, we would take turns) I just ignored it and closed my eyes, until I felt him wrapping his arms around me and saying "Good night my love" I was even more shocked so I acted as if I fell asleep and the next day when I woke up he said something really sweet for good morning and the rest of the day he acted as nothing happened but when he went home he kissed my forehead and gave me the cutest smile ever... We are both single and I really like him, more than friends. He hasn't asked me out, should I wait or ask him? Thanks.
What are the best books about twin boy and girl?
I, at a younger age, read a book called Jake and Lily, it’s designed for younger readers, but it still holds a good story and some air of mystery.Jake and Lily are twins. Even though they seem pretty different—Jake is the calm one and Lily has a temper; Lily is obsessed with trains and Jake collects cool rocks—they feel exactly the same, almost like two halves of one person. When one of them gets hurt, the other can feel it. They can communicate without words. And mysteriously, every year on their birthday, they sleepwalk to a train station in the middle of the night.But the year they turn eleven, everything changes. Their parents announce it’s time for separate bedrooms, and Jake starts hanging out with a pack of boys on the block. Lily is devastated—not to mention really, really mad. And as she struggles to make friends and get a life apart from her twin, Jake finds himself dealing with a neighborhood bully and has to decide what kind of person he really is.Beloved author Jerry Spinelli has written another perfectly on-target, humorous, and brilliant story about the struggles of growing up and discovering who you are.

Can a boy love two girl's at a same time? What is it result?
Hi there.. Many people says that love can happen only once. However it is not 100% true. One may fall in love with many people. It depends on person to person. Some people loves once and if they breaks up, they never dare to to fall in love again. Some finds the other person so close to them and it helps them to get out of the breakup phase from previous relationship. In this type of cases, usually a person ends up loving 2 people at a time. One from previous relationship because you are still not out of it completely and other one who is helping you. It’s quite normal.However, loving another girl while you already have a girlfriend is a risk for you. If it’s only a crush then it’s ok. Don’t create complications now. Stop thinking about one girl and continue with another. But take your decision wisely.Always remember, if you are really loving your current girlfriend, u might have not fallen for another. So think twice. All the best.
Good recent teen romance books?
I'm just looking for a good teen romance book that has come out in the past year or so. I only say recent because I've read most of the more popular books or have heard of them, but I haven't had time to read the newer ones. Maybe some books with a similar feeling to John Green books. I like how his books have a sort of indie romance feeling. Please don't suggest any mythical or vampire or ghost or witch books, I'm not in the mood for reading any of those, just something about two normal people. Please don't reccommend any dystopian because I've read most of them and I want to read a little different genre. Please also don't reccomend Sarah Dessen or Susan Colsanti. Some books I've liked are: The Fault in Our stars Perfect you by elizabeth scott hate list by jennifer brown If i stay by Gayle Forman the statistical probablility of love at first sight anything by maggie stiefvater or cassandra clare I've been wanting to read Elanor and Park, is it any good? Thanks for any help, I know there are alot of conditions.
