If my daughter someday flirts and gets shut down in person, that will hurt. If her friends do the snooping for her and then they let her down gently, the outcome is still the same. Just saving face. Rejection is never easy for any of us. I think the key is to instill in our kids (somehow) the self confidence it takes to say "you know what little boy or little girl, I don't need you to make me feel good about myself.<BR/><BR/>On another note Ambro....I was asked to banquets, but not ever by whom I wanted to go w/ unless I was dating someone at the time. (2 guys) through high school. I would say yes and be miserable the whole banquet. Ozark had girls ask guys every other banquet. Yeah.....I asked TWO TIMES. Talk about frick'n nerve racking!!!
