As the father of a very good looking, cheerleader type daughter, who's never had any trouble attracting boys,there are a number of things you should already be doing. You should have invested a lot of time building your daughter's self-confidence so she can be comfortable in her own skin and when she's around others, in and out of school, who will put a lot of pressure on her to do things you and she would view as unacceptable. A sense of self-worth will keep her from doing inappropriate things when she's away from home. Never let her go anywhere with a young boy without meeting him and knowing exactly where she's going and who'll be there when she gets there. Have a curfew and enforce it with consequesces for not keeping it. Never, never let her go off in a car with a person who's just gotten their driver's liscence. Parents should drive on the first few outings or until the young driver gets some experience. Don't let her date a boy more than a year or so older than she is. No matter how mature she is, older guys aren't thinking with their brains around girls. They've got one goal and we know what that is ... for the most part. If you suspect the kids she keeps company with aren't properly supervised or trained, for that manner (I mean like minded and aligned with your moral and family ideals) break up the relationships before she gets the chance to do something she'll regret by trying for group approval.

Sounds strict, doesn't it? It is! In the end, your daughter will thank you for being so involved and concerned about her development and her future. She'll also excell as a young woman when she attempts do the things that will challenge her in the future. She'll may not fully understand how she was raised until she's had a child of her own!

that school is the most important thing. because how she does in school afftects her grade average, her sat scores and what college she will be accepted into. that peer pressure should not influence her. that boys are like extra credit. they are extra the most important thing is school and her family. is she involved in any extra curricula activities. my daughter was in dance class and girl scouts and the choir so she met boys but they were sometimes hanging around doing the same things that she was doing. keep the lines of communication open and hopefully you have another adult that she can talk or turn to when she cannot talk to you.
Also no gifts or money. all that should come from you. dont let her think it is acceptable to take money, gold, gifts from a boy, she should earn that from you by her great report cards. dont apologize for being strict. you would rather be a strict parent and have a lovely daughter than a parent that is trying to be her friend and she is out here doing who knows what. you are not her friend, you are her parent and she has to understand that. as a parent you have certain rules that she has to abide by. hope i was some help. peace

I agree with the chaperone thing. OR let her know that it is ok for her to invite her boy-friend over...for dinner, movies... hanging out near the house like the porch ... skating, or movies.. with Groups... U drop and pick them up...
Most important .. stay involved.
I ended up pregnant at 15 , trying to be rebelious... and had a mother figure who wasnt that enforcing;.... make a Rule and STICK TO IT.
That way she know what to expect and knows when she broke a rule that something of hers be taken / phone/ computer... friend privlages for a set ammount of time.
Please what ever u do dont FORBID her... she will find a way to do it. And explain what it means to be a graceful young lady...
and play her that song S. E. X. ... by lyfe Jennings.

You should meet the boys she dates, get to know them and let them know you're a firm parent. Restricting her might make her rebellious and sneaky. But being interested in what they want to do for dates and providing alternatives like watching amovie at home and giving them total privacy to do so is good idea.
You can also include her dates in family activities. that way they will think twice before doing something they shdnt

Keep communication open
Let her know you will always be there for her
Make sure she is on some form of protection
Make sure she is informed about diseases and consequences

Teenagers will do as they please because they think they know it all, just be there for them when it turns out wrong and try not to tell them I told you so. You always want your child to come to you if there is a problem. In this day and age alway make sure they know about protection take her to the doctor put her on the pill. The doctor has lots of information about all the things you might not know or even think about telling her.

Supervised outings, like to the movie, is a good place to start. Then you know that nothing non kosher is hapening.
