Is it ever okay to date your kid's friends? Or is that just weird?



Obviously over 18 only.

Hey, if your daughter doesnt care, and her friend is above age and is into you...do it up. Her parents might not be too thrilled if you're almost double their age, but who cares. Stick with what makes you happy as long as it's legal and wont get anybody hurt. lol

I'm not making a plan per se...it's just come up as a possible thing a few times already. I don't always have a lot of faith in my moral compass.



Based on the way it has gone I expect it'll be a pretty relevant question as my own kid gets older and the typical age of her friends is 18+.

How hot is your kids friend? If we're talking about an all out perfect 10 then hit it until neither of you can walk. If she's m'eh, then I dont know. I have to go along with what ^^^ he said about maturity and inexperience.

She has some pretty attractive friends. I'm not really singling anyone out.



I've met maybe one perfect 10 ever, so that won't be likely.

I have a friend who is plowing out friends daughter (20 y/o) and I will tell you it is SUPER awkward.

I fear the fallout when they break up.



IMHO, don't dip into the friend pool because it will get nasty. You're putting your kid in an odd spot inevitably.
