What should u do if ur parents wont let u date?

Answer 1

Well first it depends on how old you are. If you are sixteen I believe maybe you could ask your parents about going on group dates. Maybe if they see you are going out with more friends, they will gradually gain your trust and let you go solo. Thanks.

Answer 2

I'm sure they have your best interest at heart. It's hard to say whether they're right about this because you don't mention your age. I personally think 16 is an appropriate time to start dating, some would even say 18, but I think that's a bit much.
Do you communicate well with your parents, otherwise? You should probably discuss it with them, calmly. It would give them a chance to share their concerns and allow them to get your side of the story, and see whether you're mature enough for that kind of a relationship. I suspect you're asking here the way you are because communication is not that good and your parents are not very approachable.
That's unfortunate, but I think they're probably right on this one. The problem with parents who don't communicate with their children and simply say 'no is no' is that they tend to alienate their children and the children end up doing it behind their back, with no parental control whatsoever.
What's your rush anyway? You'll get there soon enough. Do you feel you need a boyfriend to make yourself feel important? If so, that's the wrong reason. You need to find self esteem within yourself.
When you're young, two years (Or whatever you have to wait) may seem like an excruciatingly long time, but trust me, it will pass faster than you can possibly imagine.
Best of luck to you. Cheers!

Well my parents would only let me date if they met the guy and totally embarrassed me. But you should really talk to them about it. I lied about where I was going and when I got caught they actually got the hint that Im growing up and need more experience in the "real world" and that Im not as young as they think. Sometimes parents just need a wakeup call. You should just plan out a whole dramatic speech and lay it on them when theyre in a pretty good mood. It worked for me. =)

Answer 4

Listen ... I didn't get to date until I was 16 or a Jr. in High School ... !

Hated it but I'm glad they made that rule ... I wasn't even allowed to ride with guys if they drove ... !

I didn't even get to go to Prom until I was 16 or a Jr. in High School ... !

I still had crushes and what not ... I didn't have sex until I was 18 and out of the house and I think I got more out of high school than the girls that dated the whole time .. I think couples miss out on a lot during school years ... stay single until you're ready to settle down for the family life ... !

Answer 5

Most of the answers here have been quite correct. The ones that told you to fgo ahead and disobey your parents are dead wrong.

Here's the deal: it really doesn't matter whether you disagree with your parents on this issue. And, it really doesn't matter if your parents are "right" or are "wrong". This is about whether you are going to honor your parents or if you are going to disobey them and do what you want to do. Part of growing up is learning to obey people in positions of authority over you. Your parents are doing their job as parents by setting limits for you. Give them room to set those limits, even if you think they are setting them too strictly. It's one heckuva lot better for you to have a respectful and mature conversation with them about their rules if while having that discussion you also have been obediant.

If they've been wrong (or too strict), you won't have suffered any horrible, permanent fate by having obeyed them on this. Being a disobediant child will have significantly more serious consequences for you then having to wait to date for a while.

Now, if they tell you to do something that's clearly illegal (like: here kid, go sell this cocaine for us), then you absolutely must disobey them.

Answer 6

Find out what they have in mind as a stepping stone between where you are now and full-fledged single dating. Going out with a group of trusted friends whom your parents know would be a good place to start. You need to be honest with your parents and follow their decisions. Talk to them.

Answer 7

My sister Alajah dated @ 15 going on 16 and im only 16 and my mother told me not to date, and her the same thing, and now my mother knows that my sister is dating and she aint do anything.
i just didnt date, i would just hug the boy that i like and we never went out.
but i think you should listen just in case something happens, mothers are right they know there shi*

Answer 8

My parents don't let me date and I have NO problem because many of us are TOO young and immature to date..even if you want to date don't break your parents trust to date...wait...you may not think so..but parents have been where you have been...a teenager wanting to date cause you like somebody..you haven't been, so talk to them about and be respectful and listen to what they have to say..parents are wiser than you think

Answer 9

Listen to them, if you are older then sixteen you have a case but before that you know nothing about the world and dont want to know. Just stay in your safe secure little bubble.

Answer 10

How about trying to understand why they don't want you dating. It seems to me that understanding is one of those things that you only want for the things you want. Be fair, and listen to the concerns your parents have. Be as fair with them as you expect them to be with you.
