Is that “OK”? Or normal? Or when should I get worried? What signs are there that this isn’t just a sweet learning moment and that this too shall pass?He’s a kind & smart kid. He also has skipped a grade in school and even more classes because of his brains and generally maturity. So this puts him in classes with kids much older than him.He’s also poet and is definitely head over heals for this 13 yr old young girl. His mind just works like that. Always has been seeing the big romantic picture. I used to think it was just adorable; now I’m concerned.This relationship less than a month fresh, and I don’t know her well, I can assume the best, but that feels like “blinders”. In reality I’m just very uncomfortable with all of this.I trust him and we have educated him on women’s rights, respect, and all of that - but I didn’t think to expect ... to feel like he might be the vulnerable one. I thought I had time to teach him to be gentle when he was bigger. I didn’t consider my strong impulses to protect him or that I might need to so early in his life.I don’t even know what I’m asking, or if I’m just stressing - I guess :: advice or thoughts if you have them please. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2Ifi9GG
