[QUOTE="klmno, post: 145664, member: 3699"] Hi, MWM! Based on our experience, which my son did take a LITTLE (not completely) farther than normal, it does seem to be the norm these days to call someone boyfriend or girlfriend. That does not mean that they can or do have REAL romantic feelings. Keep an eye out on it- nothing wrong with checking MYSPACE or cell phones or anything else to stay on top of things, in my humble opinion. I've told difficult child that talking on phone in acceptable hours and time limits is fine, claiming each other is boyfriend/girlfriend appears more of a status quo at school or something- no personal physical contact, no dating at this age, etc. I wouldn't take it too seriously- just keep an eye out for things- it seems they really just want the others at school to know that they can get (or do have) a boyfriend/girlfriend. If she is sneaking out at night, that is a different story- Know what I mean?? [/QUOTE]
