How old will your teen/tween have to be before you will let them start dating?

I haven't really talked to dh about this. I am guessing 15 or 16. Of course, if she's a lesiban, how will we know when she starts dating?

My DH and I have talked and we've decided that it will be dependent on their maturity level.

Ditto to what Lori said. Although I know Den's answer will be the same as Tara's. Good thing I'm more laid back because if it was up to Den that poor girl would never do anything!

25. No, I guess 16 is good but I'd rather it be group dates.

Drew is currently allowed to go on group dates (he's 14). But no "real" dates until he proves to us he is mature enough. At the rate he's going, I'll be dead before that happens! LOL!

(probably 16 or so)

Ummm, dh says 30 or so...I say face reality! I think it will depend on their maturity level but no sooner than 16.

Never. I'm looking into convents for her right now.....

Nawww.... just kidding. It will depend on the kiddos maturity level, for sure. I really don't foresee anything much before 16. It's hard to say. At 3 1/2 and 2 1/2, we have bit to wait.

i was able to go on dates by myself when i was 14. My parents had to meet him first and at that time i wasnt able to drive so one of our parents took us. MY mom was usually the one to drive . if she didnt like him when we got to our destination she would tell me she was picking me up early if she did like him i would be picked up later. i had my first real boyfriend at 15
