Well since he's had a bad track record, your dad doesn't want you to get mixed up in that.
your dad needs to see that he's actually made progress and not just because YOU say he has.
the kindness could just be a front, you gotta be absolutely sure about this guy. just because he's bein nice to you desn't mean he's not out causin problems when you're not around.
do you ACTUALLY know for sure that he's makin progress from gettin himself in trouble, like doin better in his school work, maybe plannin about a college for a degree he wants to go for after he gets outta high school, or gettin into the military, getting himself a decent part time job to earn his own way for things.
your dad just don't want you gettin caught up in this guy's mistakes. So YOU need to be sure that the guy is actually doin right and SHOW your dad proof that this guy's makin progress not just tell him.
good luck

Here's my advice. People do change, but don't date anyone right out of group home. Please! Give him some time back in the real world and see if he can keep it together. If he needs a friend be a friend, but don't be his everything.
Don't let someone pull you into their problems, you could start going down too. Listen to your dad and I'm sure, years later when you have a special man who can make it in the real world than you'll thank your daddy!

I know this is hard to believe, but sometimes dads can see things that we just are not seasoned enough to see ourselves. Tell your dad that you really respect his opinion and want to know specifically why he does not like this boy. Try to focus on what your father is saying, because if I had listened to my dad I would have saved myself a lot of trouble. If you think that your dad is not being fair, tell him you would like to discuss this with him without getting upset, and give him solid reasons why you don't think he is right. If you are underage, always honor what your parents say because nobody loves you more in this world than your dad and mom.

It is good that he treats you kindly and you believe in the power for people to change. However, you should listen to your father because believe it or not, he has experience and knowledge.
Plus, as long as you are living in your parent's home you should listen to them. This guy will not be in your life for long. Teen love relationships rarely last. However, your family will be with you forever unless you push them away. It may be difficult due to your feelings for the boy, but don't rock the boat.

A group home. Well, hopefully he has changed, but he also might be a con and know how to play up to girls to charm them.
Your dad is your parent and you should honor him.
If this boy has changed and is a good guy, then when he returns home or over a period of time has proven he is on the better side of things.......then go for it.
Nothing wrong with being his friend.

your not stateing your ages.know you don't want to hear this but some times parents know best. my dad told me to take time about my first "love". Years down the road, after my dad had past away, i had a dream where he told me stay away from a certain person. Yes in my case with my dad gone he still knew best. if this guy has been in trouble and stay in trouble beware

LISTEN TO DADDY......!!!
I am not saying he hasn't changed. How long has he been in a group home? It can take years for someone to change basic behavior and make it stick. The bad boys of today are the wife beaters of tomorrow.... they usually don't change either.
Listen to daddy...he knows best!

i'm a Muslim, so i'm going to answer from the element of my faith. do you be attentive to that Allah ie God takes try of human beings by ability of giving them problems to examine in case you somewhat can shop your deep faith in God . And in case you r asserting concerning to the docs and the medicine, they r purely used like a bridge to head a river. human beings consistently want the scientific rationalization, so Allah,The God has set those docs and the medicine like that bridge. that's the Allah who provides disease and back saves.and then i'm going to ask u if the docs and the medicine r curing human beings no longer Allah, the God then why does human beings die?. i'm going to back say those docs & drugs act like the bridge & no longer something with the aid of fact the human beings wnt scientific rationalization alays. that is why we could consistently consistently thank to Allah for despite situation we r in bcoz the area we r in at modern could b worse than that is And consistently ask for Allah's help . Sorry for the damaging english.
