dating helps teens get acquainted with each other's personalities whether our dates have manners, are respectful, and thoughtful. i think it's cool to have the courage to go out for a date with a possible girlfriend and make her happy. dates should be casual, not formal, for both parties to feel comfortable. dating also provides the chance to check the partner's backround. should not make comparisons. instead, teens should treasure each date.

I think teens may be given a chance to date PROVIDED that they do not treat it as serious and intimate as some teens do. The problem arises when these teens think it is cool to start being intimate with their dates, no matter if it is just their first. For me, 16 is a good age to start dating but with a group first. I know, I am more on the conservative side. I guess 16 is the gae you can start teaching responsibility and gaining trust. teens should have fun when they date, not think of getting intimate and serious. They should enjoy every minute of their youth.
