I think so.. Cause they need experience for the future.. They have to know how to coup with the opposite sex and everything.
Hope this helps =)

 I'm so there! I'm 1 and I'm dating! Lol i don't see the problem

 Well, I think "dating" is the wrong word. I'm 13 and I have a boy friend. Dating is for grown ups. But 14 year olds should be allowed to have boy friends!

 I think 14 year olds should i mean I'm 11 and i have a girlfriend so 14 year olds should date.

 14 is a really mature age, so I think that it should be allowed. Anyways I did, and it did me no harm, in fact it made me feel better and more adult being able to handle it.

 I met my ex husband when i was 14 stayed with him 12 years
had 3 beautiful children with him
even though we ain't together now we are still friends

 Of course they can. 14 years of age is old enough to go on a date. Relationships shouldn't be serious they should be fun and helps the individual grow up.

 Yes!! All kids should have the choice to date if they want to. I know people who r 11 who have boyfriends and girlfriends. There is no person on earth that can tell you who you can and cant date no matter the age.

 Of course they should. Why not!

 Yes.

BUT with the acceptation that they are ready and are mature enough to know that if things do go to far (Not that they will) that they understand the consequences.

 Yes the World out there is SCARY and many young men and women have sex on their minds or worse! We need to believe in our children and the morals and ideals that they were taught when they were younger. This of course does not always work but if you have a smart and responsible child then it should not be an issue! Trust is the real issue! If you tell a child that they cannot date and forbid them from seeing a certain individual, trusr me they will rebel and the situation could end up ten times worse. Instead have faith in their decisions and ideas! Lastly remember to always keep communication open. Do know where your children will be and do not be afraid to check on them. If they are where they are supposed to be it proves their maturity and responsibility. If not then you should definitely start laying down stricter ground rules until they get it!

 Yea! It doesnt matter .. They are 14 that means high school :) and thats normal ..

 Wait, I'm not allowed to date? Well then what the hell have I been doing for the past year?

 I think if your child is trust worthy and the experience will do them good later in life. Good luck with this.

 I think so, because that's the year 14 year old's go to high school. That transition from middle school to high school is such a big thing in life, so I think since you get more mature, and wiser that you should have more privlages. But if you arent responsible and mature, then you shouldnt be allowed to.

 I thought they did already. I started dating when I was 13 - with hindsight I would say it was a complete waste of time, I would have been better off staying at home and doing homework, but I wouldn't have appreciated anyone telling me that in those days! If you are saying that parents sometimes don't allow their 14 yr old children to go on dates, well, I think that is fair enough, they are trying to do what they think is best for their child, and they are probably right.
