Is 12 years old to young to date?

Answer 1

Every child matures at a different rate and age and this should be taken into consideration when determining what age to start dating. 12 is fine for group outings. The age for one-on-one dating is individual for each person and should be discussed and decided individually for each between the child and the parent. However twelve year olds are not mature enough to handle one on one dating and what can come with dating.

Answer 2

At 12 years old, individuals are still developing emotionally and socially, and may not yet have the maturity to handle the complexities of dating. It's important for them to focus on their personal growth, education, and friendships at this age. Parents should have open conversations with their child about relationships and set appropriate boundaries.

Answer 3

yes, 12 is to young for a boyfriend, at least a serious one. Even if you have a boyfriend it won't last, trust me. I mean, you can "date" but it won't really be dating.

Not at all that's around the best time to start if it doesn't work out you will have more experience for the future

Answer 4

In my opinion, definitely not. Kids should be at least 14 years old to date in my opinion.

it depends on how mature the 12 year old it is and the guy or girl he or she is going with It is ok, so long as everying is legal and every person involved is happy in you doing so.

Being only 12, it is best not to get involved with anything that might not be healthy or upset your parents.

There are plenty of 12 year olds who have boyfriends/girlfriends and date other 12 year olds.

Answer 5

i really don't think so. I'm 11 and wanted to date so i talked to my mom about it. she says being 11 is about a good time to start dating. my dad on the other hand is really strict and doesn't want me dating until I'm 50! but that's my dad for you. truthfuly i think being 11 or 12 is an ok age to start dating.
