if you're not mature enough to have this conversation face to face with your parents, you're not mature enough to date

How old are you??? You left that out. If the note is written in a mature way (not contaning any angry accucations,etc) then give it to the more resonable of the two and ask that person to please read it and discuss it with your other parent and then with you. I can't stress enough on how it HAS to show your level of maturity. The letter may or may not change their minds but it's worth a try. At this point it can't hurt so you have nothing to loose by giving it to them. Good Luck!

They are not concerned so much about you knowing what not to 2 d w/ boys as they are scared about boys knowing what to do w/ you.
If you must, leave the note on kitchen table. I think you would have more success doing some negotiation:
a) Can 4 of us - 2 couples do the mall Saturday afternoon.
b) Can 4 of us go to a movie.
etc.

Instead of giving your parents the letter maybe you should try to talk to them over dinner or something first. Explain to them what you wrote in the letter and if they wont listen then give them the letter. Just an idea.

leave it on the table when you go out or for school or whatever and then think about what your going to say when you get back and then you'll see what they have to say but also don't date boy's if your parents say not too they usually are right and if your too young things like boy's isn't what you need at the moment. cause they Can be really stressful but they can be really sweet at the same time

Sometimes it is hard to understand that our parents want the best for us. I did not understood that until I got married and I had my own kid. If for some reason your parents are trying to protect you from all the trouble out there, be patient and the time will come when they will give you the green light.

I think you might have better luck with your parents if you went to them in person and asked to discuss the matter with them. It would show your maturity and impress them. As a parent that is what I encourage my children to do. If you have to pass a note then you aren't old enough to date.

I don't know hold old you are but until you prove to your parents that you are responsible they won't let you date. I wasn't allowed to date until they found out I was pregnant at 18

How old are you? Maybe you should just give it to them and say you would like to calmly discuss your reasons on why you should be able to date and hear what their reasons are for you not to. Make sure you keep an open mind to their opinions and concerns you are their child and they only have your best interest at heart.

a letter wont make the situation any better. Believe me when i tell you, your parents are not trying to ruin yopur fun they're saving you from yourself. they dont want their daughter to be in a relationship that could change her outlook on future relationships. listen to your parents they know best and you have soooo much life to live dont rush it. its not worth it. a broken heart takes time to mend so when you have that kind of time then your ready fo a relationship.
