Nowadays, the trend of developing friendship between children and parents has increased a lot. Now parents want their children to share everything with them and seek advice for their problems from their own parents instead of their friends who lack experience. For this, parents try to become friends of their children.

In the midst of this friendship, when you come to know that your son has a girlfriend, how should you react? Many parents want to know the answer to this question and they do not understand whether they should be a cool parent or take some action at this time. Therapist Riri Trivedi has shared a video on her Instagram explaining what parents should do when they find out about their son’s girlfriend.

What should be done if you find out about your son’s girlfriend?

How should parents react?

When your 15, 16 or 17 year old son comes and tells you that he/she has a girlfriend, then first of all it means that he/she is very open with you and is able to talk to you openly. Secondly, you do not have to give any reaction to the child suddenly. Neither do you have to show too much happiness nor remain in shock.

Don’t be too happy, don’t be shocked

You should not be too happy after listening to your son that this is a very good thing, nor should you get shocked that it is not right to have a girlfriend at such a young age. Right now you have to study, make your career. Because of your reaction, it is possible that the child may not tell you anything further.

Children have moved ahead at a young age

You have to remain neutral and calm while listening to your son. You should understand that in your generation, the children who used to do the work at the age of 25, have now started doing it at the age of 15-16. Riri said that children today have started knowing a lot because of social media and environment and sometimes they also start doing sexual experiments.

To guide you properly and to support you

Riri said that as a parent, you should not be under the illusion that ‘my child is not like this, he/she does not do anything like this, he/she is very polite’. As a parent, you have to guide your child properly and support him/her.

Things can be resolved by explaining with love.

You should explain to your son that having a girlfriend is not the focal point of his/her life. Tell him/her that this is the age in which he/she can do many things and he/she will not get time for it in the future. he/she will have to maintain a balance between his/her love life, studies and career.
