Its perfectly normal for boys and girls to start liking each other during the preteen years. Its very new, so it might feel awkward or strange. Its also fine if kids feel too young to get involved in this lovey-dovey stuff. The good news is that almost all kids think girls and boys can be friends.

Should I let my 12 year old daughter have Snapchat?

The app says it is appropriate for kids ages 12+ but in my opinion as a parent, this is definitely not the case! If you are considering for your tween/ teen, I recommend opening an account first for yourself and monitoring the articles for a week or so. Then decide what you feel is appropriate for you family.
