Thanks so much for the help PDM. laugh


I have a daughter in Year 8 ~ which, I think, may be a similar age to 8th grade, but not sure?? Year 8, here, is for 12 - 13 year-olds. I think that this is too young for boyfriends / girlfriends, but I know that some of her friends are going out with boys. And I know that when I was young, kids had boyfriends / girlfriends within school, but not 'going out', so I can see why you have opted for this choice and I think that it is sensible.

Really, I think you & Katherine need to ask your & her parents if they are Ok with you going to the cinema ~ if that is what you want to do. Perhaps they could take you, but sit in a different place or see a different film? Or perhaps you could go in a group?

I think that you are right about making it clear to Kelsey that she is a friend but that Katherine is your girlfriend. You may all be very young, and some people might not think that this is a very serious matter, but it is only fair, on both girls to be honest with them.
