If the kids and the parents are good people no harm. If they are trash then not happening.

If you don't give them a little freedom growing up, they won't know how to handle the freedom when they finally get it.

Good choice by you op.

It’s just dinner with a parent present. Let her go. It will be good for her.

They’re eating at La Hacienda in Whitehouse. Far from extravagant

I can stand watch if you need me too
I love LaHacienda. I wouldn’t worry too much. It allows some trust to be developed & as long as there is a parent present. Good luck

There ya go.

I'm pretty sure no parent has ever said "Man I am so glad I was overbearing on little Jimmy, it sure made him turn out great!!!"

If she would’ve just let me by that tractor, I may have sided with her on this one lol!!

Tell her that. it's a teachable moment.

Italian restaurant with candle light … NO

chuck e cheese... ok, heck go with 'em.

cuz the 6th graders love Chuck E Cheese's

Dinner with a chaperone is fine IMO. She's going to a dance-- where things are going to be quite a bit more intimate than dinner.

My stepdaughter (6th grade) is having an end of the year school dance Friday night. Some of her friends 3 boys/3 girls and a parent are going out to eat at a little local restaurant before the dance. She has been invited and wants to go. Before I say how I feel about it, just curious what you say in regards to them going out to eat.

They have a chaperone. As long as you trust the parent/chaperone I think you should let her go.

Uh oh. Don’t remind her of this otherwise you will be going to the dance too
