Teenage relationships
Romantic relationships are a major developmental milestone. They come with all the
other changes going on during adolescence - physical, social and emotional. And they're linked
to a teenager's growing interest in body image and looks, independence and privacy.
Romantic relationships can bring lots of emotional ups and downs for a teenager- and
sometimes for the whole family. The idea that the teenager might have these kinds of feelings
can sometimes be a bit confronting for his or her parents. But these feelings are leading your
child towards a deeper capacity to care, share and develop intimate relationships. 
There isn't a ‘right age’ to start having relationships - every child is different. But here
are some averages of when teenage relationships start. From 9-11 years, your child might start
to show more independence from the family and more interest in friends. From 10-14 years,
your child might want to spend more time in mixed gender groups, which might eventually end
up in a romantic relationship. From 15-19 years, romantic relationships can become central to
social life. Friendships might become deeper and more stable.
