Girls today

I don't know about you, but growing up my Mom always said I was never to call a boy. It was not proper. If they wanted to talk to me they would call. Well that never worked out. I called them anyway. LOL!!

Now we have cell phones, text messaging, Facebook, Twitter, and who know how many other sites to keep up with our friends. As a mother of one little girl it scares me of what I have to look forward to when she grows up.

Over the last 3 years Austin has been in middle school my eyes have been opened to how bold girls are now a days. Middle school is when we purchased him a phone. I felt like if he was staying after school I wanted a way for him to call me if he needed me. Since the phone has been brought into our home I have found out how much little girls want to talk. ALOT!!! They text him constantly. He can be on facebook talking to 3 different girls and texting a 4th. I just cringe when I think about talking to that many people at once. But he loves it and has some really good friends that I think are great.

I feel like last year girls changed. Yep I know hormones hit and I remember how that felt. But some of the girls got CRAZY!! Some of these girls were posting pretty racy pictures on FB (Yep I look at Austin's FB account, he knows it, so technically it is not spying LOL!!) Some of these girls got pretty close to the definition of obsessed. He even had one follow his bus home (she was riding with her big sister) to see where he lived. Okay so I have never had a 13 year old girl but is this normal???

Well last night I had the biggest shock of all. My husband when outside to get something out of the garage. When he came back in he was laughing and shaking his head. Of course I asked what had happened. He said that a lady had pulled up to our house (we live in the woods yall, its not like she would just stop & ask for directions). She asked my husband if Nicholas Richardson lived here (Yep my 11 year old). David told her yes, but that he was not home right now. Then he looked in the back seat of the woman's car. Crouched down in the back seat floor were 2 little girls Nicholas age. The lady starts to laugh and then explains that her daughter (Nicholas' GF we found out) had been talking about him for weeks and her Mom told her that she was so tired of hearing his name that she was going to come over here to meet him. David said the little girls looked so embarrassed. He said he just laughed and told her that he wished he were home to see this. They talked for a minute and then she left.

Seriously who does that? I do think it is funny. I also think it will most likely shut the little girl up for a few days. But seriously who does that??? This is only 5th grade!!!
