Last week, Nat asked me if she could go shopping at the mall with her friends. She said she was talking with 2 of her friends from school and they asked her to ask me if she could go with them. Apparently her other 2 friends have done it before and now that want to include Nat. She also added that she would “bring her own money.” I haven’t given her an answer yet.
I was trying to remember how old I was when I started to go to the mall with my friends. I use to go to the mall all the time with my neighbor and good friend Jenna. Her dad would drop us off at the mall and wait in the car sometimes a block away until we were done. Sometimes, my dad would take us too. My favorite store was called “The Expanding Wall” I think. It was store that carried lots of random things like stationery, pens, gifts, dust collectors, etc. I loved buying & collecting stationery at the time. (Email wasn’t around yet!)
She hasn’t asked me again, but if she does, should I let her go? (It would be chaperoned) She’s turning 9 next week.
My opinion, too young. Times have changed. 13 sounds like a good age.
I agree with Jill, girls always like shopping, but now is too young to let her shopping without the adult
hell no
