she is 15...she had a friend from her younger years who is 18 now and moved to NY they started "text dating" and I found her cam chatting with him. should i be worried, she says she loves him am i overreacting?
She's 15 -perfectly normal! AND lucky for you he's all the way in NY! She'll probably "love" someone else in a month.
im sure its nothing to worry about. Text dating is better then them actually being together in person in which sex can happen. this way you dont have to worry about pregnancy or stds. As long as they keep it at a cam chat or text messaging i would say to let it go.
I agree with Julie B. If you have a good home life, she isn't likely to run away to New York. Long distance "boyfriends" are probably the best kind, at that age.
He is in NY and you in WV, how convenient. Now is probably a good time to talk about your family's values if you havent' already. Not specifically about him but in general.
In my house the kids know no moving in together, no sex before marriage. Absolutely no sexting or the phone is taken, no tatoos, no more than one hole in your ears. Whatever your morals are you need to make sure she is aware.
I do this by pointing out celebrities who mess up, they provide so much fodder for moral education.
Keep it monitored.
I would be freaking out. But like everyone else said its long distance and as long as they dont visit eachother not much can happen. Now is a good time to have the "birds and bees talk" if you haven't all ready. I'm a little crazy and he's 18 so if it came to it i'd let him know not to touch her. If you know what i mean. lol
