 Well I am not a parent but it shouldn't be a kids responsibility when they are ready. If a parent thinks they aren't ready then the parent should have a talk with them about the pros and cons of being in a relationship. I started "dating" in the 6th grade and had my heart broken many times. I didnt start serious dating until high school, you understand people better then and it isn't just about looks or if people think you and some other person make a good couple, it is about whether you like the person or not.

 18 is too old to start dating I would say 14 or 15.

 I don't think they have to be over 18 but they should be at least 14. But nothing serious till 18.

 It depends on what you consider dating. My kids started much younger going to church functions in groups and double dating to school dances. Of course, parents dropped them off and picked them up. I think it's more important that we know the other children and their parents.

 I think it is fine for people under 18 to have relationships, a lot of the time, "dating" is just hanging out and doing homework together, just to be able to call someone yours can boost self-esteem.

 A kid knows when they are ready to date. If that kid is stupid and immature then i think the parents should not let the kid date

 Parents should be able to determine when their kids can start dating. I don't mean they should just pick an age and lay down the law. What I mean is that parents should be able to decide at what point their kids are able to handle dating along with schoolwork and any other responsibilities they might have. I would hope a teenager would be mature enough to date before 18.

 If pre-marital dating is allowed, it should be allowed before the people are out on their own without family for emotional support. Otherwise it's like keeping a pet housebound and then expecting it to be able to cross a freeway/interstate just because it's been weaned.

 I think that you shouldn't date until you're at least in high school. I don't think anything before that can really be considered dating, you don't really do much besides hang out.

 I'm fifteen and I think it's fine to date right now but dating before 8th grade or even High School just isn't right
