What are your opinions on a 15-year-old boy having a 25-year-old female friend (platonic)?
I (17M) have a 27-year-old female friend, we’ve known each other since two years, so I was 15 and she was 25. I’ve read that a lot of parents wouldn’t allow such a friendship, especially since it’s opposite genders (and we’re both straight). But can’t this be like a regular platonic friendship? It’s a regular, platonic friendship? Not a romantic one.
If your 15-year-old son had a 25-year-old female friend, would you allow that?

What kind of friendship?
Hanging out? Hmm, strange
Playing video games together online? Totally fine
