It depends on the maturity level of the kid. My son I think would be fine at being allowed to date at age 15 (opinion subject to change w/o notice).My niece,who I love as my daughter, I would not let out untill she is 18.I love her, but the girl has no kind of good sense!

13-year-olds should wait a little bit for dating...\nthe best match would be her friends and the mall... or whatever they like doing

13 year old boyfriends aren't all that great.\nMy advice, wait till you are a little older to start looking for a boyfriend.

Well for a lot of young teens they mostly want someone to call their "boyfriend/girlfriend", its kind of a monkey see, monkey do situation (they see their parents in relationships and they want to do the same, plus it makes them feel even more loved)...but a good place to let a young teen go for a date would be the movies, mall, or even out to dinner. Set a reasonable curfew and if they come back on time then you can trust him/her.

It depends on how old you are and what you mean as a boyfriend. If you mean having a boyfriend like hanging out at each others house then middle school/ jr high. If you mean actually dating you need to be older.\n\nTo date you really need to be old enough to be able to say no to situations that make you uncomfortable. There is no set age for dating and having a boyfriend it varys with each individual person.

Can you be "best friends," instead of girlfriend/boyfriend?  Respect his parents on this one & wait till he's 16 to officially date.  By then you'll know each other a little better & a lot can happen in over a thousand days.

we will let our daughter date when she is 17 the whole reason for dating is to find the one person for you to marry. anyone that would let there kids be alone with the opposite sex at 12 or 13 is   just not a responsible parent.

well how old are u, if your over sixteen i would try to talk with your parents about letting you date.  i just want to say there really isnt a rush it will all be there when your out on your own.  enjoy being young honey because before to long you will now that the real world can be a rough place.

no you are 13. Have fun with your friends have a childhood.  Don't start getting into boys they are not all what they are craked up to be, trust me.  Especially at you age they only want one thing so they can be cool, and you don't want to be known as the easy girl who will give it to them.  I hope i made myself clear on that part. As for dating games don't know never had to use games to get a date.

Depending how old you are...if your 13 you have atleast 3 more years before your mature enough for that stage.  But there is a chance if your mature enough at the age you are and your parents ok..that you can date.

There's no age limit for dating. What matters is that you and the guy click!

I think that you should wait until you do reach 18 before getting romanticly involved with him because too many bad things could happen if you guys get into a fight since you are still a minor. But after you turn 18, you should go for it. I'm 26 and am dating a 42 year old. Most of them still act like they're 15 not matter how old they get. lol

It's all about SCHOOLS. I don't know how your's is but where I live 5th-8th grade is middle school and 9th-12th is high school. Having a high school - middle school relationship is difficult. Also, maturity wise 12 year old boys are a lot less into thinking about serious realtionships than 14 year old girls are-she'd be likely to end up getting hurt. I'd be more worried about THAT than the age differance. I'm 17, turning 18 in March and my boyfriend is 16 turning 17 in June and we're extremely happy together but I've already graduated high school (graduated early at 16) and he's a mature individual....so it's less about age, more about maturity. Maybe they could try being good friends for now and see where that goes?

What exactly is a date now a days? Go to the movies?Group or one-on-one? Call themselves dating but never leave their own houses? Having sex? All these questions carry different age levels with them. And maturity levels. Unfortunately for us parents there really aren't any tried and true rules to follow.\n\nGood luck ! I know I need it! Mine are 15,13,13,11..........URGH!!!!!
