Hi. I'm a senior in high school and my parents treat me like a child. I have never dated a guy before and yet they have already given me dating rules. Do you think that your parents should have the right to do that? I mean one of them is that my parents have to meet him first and he has to sign a contract saying, "I want to date your daughter because......". Do you think that's right?

Well I think parents should meet the guy first before going out on a date but a contract common now that is pushing it, I think parents have the right to give you dating rules, they just want to make sure your safe and won't get hurt even though you will time after time, its life no one just meets that right person off the bat and has a happy life we go through stages first, but your parents have good intentions but the contract thing I would tell them no, explain to your parents you will obey some of the rules not all of them, and explain the precautions if they keep pushing explain to them when they weren young I am sure they dated behind there parents back everyone has done it in a time or 2, anyways good luck on that!

Until you have a job and are able to support yourself, you should follow the rules that your parents set. After all, you are living in their house and they are still responsible for your health, and well being. If more parents cared and set rules, I think we would not have many of the problems we have today. They seemed to get thru life and I am sure their parents set rules for them. Just think more about what they are trying to tell you instead of why you think it is wrong. Maybe they have been around longer and have gone thru some of this before- just maybe. You are never too old to take advice and use it to your best interest.

I think parents set these rules because they love you and they want to be sure nobody takes advantage of you during one of these dates. I think it is definitely their call - you are their daughter and you do live with them. I think the contract is a bit much.
Once you move out, you are on your own to choose your dates carefully. There are so many creeps out there, your parents are just trying to help you weed through them.
