If you have teenage sons you may find yourself wondering if there is a revolving door at the local store where your son is exchanging girlfriends like shoppers exchange gifts after Christmas. All these girls can become quite confusing for parents, having you wondering if this is the one, or is that the one? This constant change of girlfriends will be easier to handle if you keep the following steps in mind.
Some teens bring the girlfriends home and some don't. If your teen is one of those who do, remember, chances are she's only temporary.
Think of her as a part time job. If he sees her for any length of time you'll want to know a little about her in order to have conversation, but a little is enough.
Teenagers think they're in love and it's best if you don't argue the point, but discuss with your son the possibility that this may not be the love of his life.
Go easy on holidays and birthdays. If you're going to purchase a gift, don't get an expensive one. Chances are she won't be there next Christmas.
Try not to get too close. There's a very good possibility you'll never see her again after the breakup.
Remind him they can be friends after the breakup, but it takes time. Remind yourself she will most likely soon be gone.
They will come and go so be polite. After all, sometimes they come back.
