Just for poops and giggles.....the more I think about this.....the moreI wonder how this differs from say your son bringing home a girlfriend of a different race (insofar as leaving him to make his own life decisions).
How would you know she's of a different race??
I wouldn't set him up with her.....but at 16....is he old enough to make that decision on his own? Would I empower him in this decision, though? Let him use the car? Give him some spending cash? etc...?
as long as you're not tying her down to the bed and putting some bee gees music on then that is no comparison
Totally different subject....but the answers to each are likely relative.
You'd want him to date relatives??
Is he old enough at 16 to make these decisions for himself?
Remember....it isn't about me.
What decision is that??
does it matter?? you'd let him anyway.
there is nothing similar or relative in this situation, bad analogy.
