Ike & Kate-
My son is in high school. I have full access to his Facebook and Twitter pages and Snapchat. I've noticed that there is another boy who is constantly messaging my son asking him out. My son is always polite and tells him that he is not interested in guys. I asked my son about this and he said it's been happening for the past couple months. He said the boy just won't give up. I talked to my husband about this and feel that the school needs to get involved. Unwanted advances like this that won't stop are borderline harassment. My husband disagrees. He says there is no difference between this and a girl liking our son. He says I need to leave it alone and let the kids work it out. There are some messages though that almost seem threatening. This other boy is trying to convince my son just to give him a chance. He says my son can't say he is not into boys if he has never tried it. I asked my son to block this boy on his social media and he says no. He says he doesn't want to hurt his feelings and make it awkward at school. I have been thinking about contacting the boy and asking him to leave my son alone. He has a very nice girlfriend and I don't want this boy crush to mess that up. My husband says I would never do that if it was a girl who was hitting on him. I think I would. My son doesn't need this distraction. He needs to focus on college and his sports plus his girlfriend.  I'm curious if any other parents have gotten involved with the school if this happened to their child? How would you feel if this was happening to your kid?

Thanks
