I agree wholeheartedly. She’s not ready for this kind of talk even though he is. But then again, maybe he is sending these texts because he thinks it is what he is “supposed to do.” Kids fall easily into doing what they think they are supposed to do rather than what they really want to do.

She made the right move in telling him that he made her uncomfortable. If he keeps it up, then it is time for her parents to discuss this with his parents.
