Good point. I'm not particularly strict in this area or possibly any other area when it comes to teen socialization. If they are going to be hanging out with friends...then there is no big difference if they call it a 'date' or not.
I would PREFER Chloe to be on a date with one guy....instead of being out with her goofy a$$ed girlfriends walking the streets with thousands of sailors driving by. And if she DID want to date when she was younger and I said no...then she would simply spend the night at a friend's house and do it anyway.
That's why Star can't second guess the situation with Krystal. There is no guarantee that anything would be different if Krystal would've stayed at home all those years. Girls who live at home get pregnant too.
It's tough raising kids. Sometimes all turns out well...sometimes there are snags along the way. I'm not sure that 'the rules' are the determining factor. It's a hit or miss.
