it is not fine because they are very young and they don't have the full knowledge to take a good decision. so it is better to have a relationship after the year of eighteen because guys and girls will have more maturity and they will come to know what life and love is. at the age of fourteen they may take relationship just like that and in future they may long for that relationship too.

I also think that they need more time and need to be at least 18 to 20 years to get mature in character.

I also think that they are young and does not have the maturity to make the right decision at the young age.

I also think that they are not mature enough to take any decisions. I don't think any parent will agree with this because they all worried about the girls future. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

I think it is good to have little control on the girls in dating because sometimes they might not be matured enough to handle it.

I do not think so but in this day and age, they start very early. I think if they are responsible and mature enough, then yes.

I thinks sometimes girls hurt at early age when they have heart broken. I also think if they are mature and responsible to handle it then it is okay for dating.

I think it is more important the maturity of the person than the age. Some people get mature at early age and can handle things in life more efficiently.

I also think that it is okay to date at later age when they become emotionally mature also.

I think it is good to be strict with young girls for their own good.

No way! For me, 14 years old is still too young to go on dating. They could do better in playing dolls and study their books, not boys! There is plenty of time ahead of them, not 14 years old, please!

I also think it is better to get more mature and more age and then go for dating. I think it is time for school and studies and playing at 14 years.

I don't think it's a good idea. Being in a relationship can be fun, but there is a lot of risk involved. I think it's more important for adolescents to get some grounding in less-risky activities. They can have friendships with guys, but they shouldn't be pressured to make it "romantic". I also think that some "dating" is pretty harmless. For example, when I was 14, I used to have a "boyfriend" and we wrote notes back and forth and did our homework together. We didn't spend any time together outside of school activities. At this age, they are extra-vulnerable, and should be re-affirmed that they are special, smart, attractive, etc. I think that some kids go after a relationship because they want validation about these things. There are better ways to get that!

I also think that most times at younger ages opposite sexes gets attracted with each other and should have less risky activities.

I also think it is not okay for kids to go for dating as they are not mature and they can't take the right decision at the right time.

Hi there! In my opinion, dating age depends in ones' culture. Here in the Philippines, society is a bit conservative and treats a 14 year old still a kid and most parents wouldn't allow them to go on dating yet. Personally, I also feel that it's not right for a teenager that young to go dating. A 14 year old is still young to have a relationship. There's still a lot to learn about having a relationship and they still don't know much about how it is in the real world. Ciao!

I also think at that age most of them are kids and they need time to learn about relationship. I also think dating depends to an extend to the culture.

I have a long way to go on that since my girls are only 4 and 7 but even my boys m oldes is 14 will be 15 in dec and then i have 11 and5 yr old boys as well, but like iw as saying even for my boys my oldest is 14 and he likes girls but has never gone out on a date maybe like to the movies and dinner with family but letting them hang with out us right over the shoulder but not alone. As for kids dating to find a mate lol lol lol they are kids come on they barely worry about what to wear let alone thikin that far ahead to find a mate at 14 lol lol

I think it would be good for girls and boys to date after they become more mature.

I went on my first 'date' when I was 13-or-14. Well, I 'paid' when she & I went across the street from Silver Strings rehearsal for lunch at a fast-food place. And that's what a date is---two people going out to eat (with 'romantic' thoughts) where someone pays. And that's 'romantic' in the sense of "traditional wooing," not the sense of 'maybe gettin` some action afterwards' (which I never did at the end of a date). I disagree that dating always means 'trying to get that.' Boys should be comfortable hanging out with one girl alone. In fact, I'd FORCE them to (if I weren't sure about 'how they were') ... or not, I dunno.

Yea i think its fine, because its getting them ready for when they grow up. If they started dating at 17 and got there heart broken at that age, some people might literally think its the end of the world, even after a small heart break.

I think most of the young people are more emotional and cannot take in a mature way and so they need time and they need to date at greater age.

According to my opinion 14 years age is less because most of the girls not matured in this age and lots of boys takes the benefit of this. Why the girls and boys needs dating why they want to meet alone check the reason behind this. At least the girl should 18 years of age.

I think most probably girls should reach 18 years before going for dating.

Dating AT 14 is too young so dating under the age of 14 is definitely too young. You should be focused on having fun being a kid and focusing on school. Its normal to like boys but taking it any further is too much too soon. It just opens the door to things that girls that age shouldn't be introduced to. Be a kid for as long as possible. PS, im not that old and i truly believed in this same idea when i was 18 and looked back on those years.

I think some girls think they are big enough to handle it and thinks their parents are trying to be too protective when they do not allow them to go for dating.

I think it is too early for the girl at 14 to date. They do not even know the meaning of dating properly i guess. I think that is why there are lot of teenage pregnancies now. They should take there time and it is about their life and it is not a joke. They must grow mature enough to handle it. 14 is too early.. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.
