Q

A

Many girls in your daughter's generation are maturing physically at a more rapid pace than those in previous generations. For a girl who has physically matured at an early age, your daughter may possibly be dealing with some surging hormones and the beginnings of her body's sexual awakening. "Liking guys" at school is not unusual for an 11-year-old. However, there is a major difference at her age between liking boys and dating them. I believe that 11-year-olds are far too young to engage in dating behaviors. Although your daughter may look years older than her age, her emotional intelligence, reasoning, and judgment have a long way to go to catch up to her body. In essence, she may be a girl with the body of an older teen, but her emotional and intellectual makeup remains that of an 11-year-old. Older boys often pursue girls who mature earlier physically and these girls are often flattered and excited by this attention (for example, the freshman girl who is romanced by the senior boy). Although it's usually true that girls do mature socially earlier than boys do, we are not talking here about socialization skills -- we are talking about 11-year-olds dating. I would not belittle or embarrass your daughter by making fun of her sudden attraction to "the guys at school," but I would set clear dating guidelines at this time. Boys and girls socializing together at this age is healthy, but in my opinion, individual dating should not be encouraged or allowed. Because of your daughter's early and rapid physical maturation, you need to be aware that she resist postponing her entrance into the dating world. Make sure that you engage her in an ongoing, age-appropriate dialogue of sex and sexuality as part of her overall childhood development. By the way, consider the fact that although she may protest loudly if you do not let her date for the next couple of years, down deep she may be relieved that she can avoid her own fears about dating by blaming her mom.

A long, passionate kiss is a great way to express your emotion and desire with your boyfriend or girlfriend. Hold your partner close as you kiss them by wrapping your arms around their shoulders or waist to show that you want to kiss them deeply. You can also move your hands around your partner’s body during the kiss to convey your affection. For example, you can move your hands from their face to the back of their neck. Adjusting how you kiss your partner as you make out can also help to build the passion. Try a short burst of light kisses before you move into a French kiss.
