We had a 6th grader (12 yrs old ish) get preggo when I was in middle school. The school was set up for 6th, 7th and 8th graders.
I don't think "going out" in elementary school means "unchaperoned" events, either. I'd guess it's more of the holding hands type of stuff you mentioned earlier. But I could be wrong.
Oh, I'm not saying it doesn't happen. And I think there was a big change once you went to junior high - in my school district, elementary school was K through 6 (though they've since changed it), so up to age 12, you were still pretty protected. But like I said, I know things have changed even since you and I were that age. |
