[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 145732, member: 3208"] Hi, another mom chiming in to say it is normal. When both my girls were that age kids were always "going out". I found it funny because they never actually went out anywhere, that's just what they called it when they had a boyfriend or girlfriend. I think these days it is so much more common for groups of boys and girls to hang out together. In my day we didn't do that til we were maybe seniors in high school. I was surprised to find out recently how many "boyfriends" my difficult child 2 had in middle school. Since she never did anything outside of school with any boy in a dating situation I had no idea! I'm glad for your dtr that she has many friends and is good at sports. Sounds like she is doing fine and you deserve that! Jane [/QUOTE]
