I need some dating advice.?

I'm 14 years old and I'm almost 15 (in November). I'm going to be a freshyy this year, and I brought up the subject of ';dating'; (an apparently deadly word in my house), and my parents are like ';YOU ARE NOT DATING UNTIL YOU ARE 16!!';, and I'm so pissed off. Almost all of my friends (we are in grade 8) have/had boyfriends, and even 6th graders at my school have boyfriends, so I feel like a loser. I am not being forced to have one, but me and a boy both like each other back, and when I told my mom that I liked him, she yelled at me saying that I'll have sex and become pregnant, but I know that he likes me, and wouldn't force me to do anything (he's mad nice=]). How do I convince my parents that I'm old enough %26amp;+ responsible enough. PLEASE HELPI need some dating advice.?
Try to understand your parents. They have the responsibility to protect you until you're old enough to take care of yourself. Of course they're worried, they know there are a lot of bad guys out there who would just want to take advantage of you. As a parent, I would be concerned, too.





That being said, you cannot put a certain age on maturity. I know people who are being more mature at age 16 than others are at 25. It really depends on how you've behaved in the past and how much your parents trust you. The way you tell the story, they don't seem to trust you much at all, at least they don't think you're old and mature enough to have a boyfriend.





The only way that I could think of would be to actually spend some time with that particular boy under the ';supervision'; of your parents. Now I know this sounds awkward, but you can make it less awkward if you pick an activity that all of you can enjoy. Do something casual like bowling or mini-golf or whatever you're in to. Just give your parents a chance to meet him and to see you and him together.


Hopefully when they see that you really like to spend time together, they will lift the ';absolutely-no-dating'; restriction to a ';be-back-by-ten'; restriction.I need some dating advice.?
