Question: I am a 13-year-old girl who will he 14 this March. Do you think that 13 and 14 year olds are too young to have boyfriends or girl friends and to kiss? I am not interested in advice about the '50s and '60s. I need your advice about the '80s. Answer: We've answered this question, or ones much like it, several times in this column and in our regular articles in Youth 84. And, yes, we do think 13 is too young to do these things. Many people, however, assume that the answer to these questions might, or should, change depending on the times (that is, that these things might be OK now in the '80s). But stop and think a minute. People say, " Times have changed, "and they mean by this that some things are happening so much that we should think they are OK. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
