I honestly dont' know any 16 yr olds using ITunes. Most kids I know have found a way to download music for free.
You can listen to it for free. But you can't own it for free. If you want the new song by Beyoncé to be able to listen to on demand, you need to buy it. You can stream it on other services but you have to wait for it to come on, just like the radio.
I am telling you what the reality is but if you want to protest, then go ahead.
my 5 kids use iTunes mainly but do sometimes listen to free streaming. with iTunes it does not take data, and we are rural
We are rural as well so the kids aren' supposed to use data. There are some apps that let you get free music but you have to get theirs ads or something. Itube and MP rocket and some other ones.
I am on several spin offs, but do not post tons. But I do post...life is just always busy as I know it is for us all!
thanks this seems to be a nice place
Depends on who you're asking...
They're all nice, pretty much, until you disagree...
Back on topic: I wanted/needed a gift today or I would have saved some $ by using my Amazon Prime. I just got back from Best Buy, they had these on sale for $28.99:
I hope I did ok, I want to develop a good relationship, if possible, with a 16 year old girl who has emotional baggage.
HM. Can I offer a bit of advice? Take it or leave it.
16 yr old girls can be fickle but they can also see a genuine desire to be friends.
Gifts are nice. I am sure she will love it.
But let the real gift be getting to know one another. Be someone she can trust. Someone she can look up to. Someone she can vent to.
But don't be a push over either.

On the bright side he really seems to love her and dotes on her. He seems like a really nice guy.

DN was much OLDER when she met Sparkly.....so she did wait.
Very true. Ten years older at the time to be precise.

Does anyone really date at 16? I mean yeah I went out on a few dates but never any one person for a long time.
It was more socializing with friends than dates.

Around here most kids start dating at about 16. I wouldn't say it's serious dating. They'll go see a movie or go hang out together somewhere.

Maybe I was a late bloomer. My kids too. I mean they have had "dates" to school dances since entering high school.
Haha... Caitlyn purposefully went with boys from other schools so she didn't have to deal with them at school.
She's a lot like me. Not sure if that's good or bad.
