Hi
I always remind & encourage my daughters (over meals, in the car, before sleeping) to have clean outdoor fun with both boys and girls, and meet as many godly men and also godly women as possible before settling down on a particular person. As to single dates, they know that they are a little young to do that at the moment. I also acknowledged that I can't control them in this area BUT I always remind them what they are looking for in a man. Of course, they have lots of things to say about this (and sometimes it's really fun to hear from them). At the end of the day, I always add in this little seed: Whatever man they decide, he MUST ALWAYS DRAW YOU CLOSER TO CHRIST. And my wife would add a little from her perspective.
