You should NEVER put up with manipulative behavior like this.
Parents want to believe that they're raising their teens to make sound choices in their social lives. But with adolescence comes immaturity, insecurities, and hormones that can often set kids up to accepting behavior from others that isn't in their best interest.
Calilac continued, "This boy has been talking to her for two days and thinks he 'knows what real friendship looks like.'" But the Redditor was in for a pleasant surprise when her daughter "recognized the attempts at manipulation." She was a bit caught off-guard, because she admitted that at her daughter's age she was "so attention-starved that I fell for shit like that all the time. And this was her first time experiencing something like this too.
The OP shared that she and her husband had warned their girl "about this sort of behavior in relationships," but they "never knew if it actually sunk in so I'm really proud of her ." She said that the incident left her feeling "strangely, a little more terrified and confident at the same time regarding letting her go out and about in the world. She'll be a freshman in high school this year, so I feel a little better about her boundary awareness now.
Further down in the thread, Calilac elaborated, "We started talking to her about consent and boundaries when she was around 3. She didn't have to hug or kiss anyone she didn't want to . Over the years, we've built on that in casual conversations. Around 7th grade, we started talking more often about healthy relationship behaviors and unhealthy ones, beginning with what she was wanting from a relationship like that.
