Firstly, not every 14 year old cries if a guy doesn't like them.
Secondly, a boyfriend or girlfriend is not a compulsory "accessory" to each and every middle- and high-schooler.
I'm 14 and I say if she wants a boyfriend, let her have one, as long as she is mature enough for one. Make sure you set rules and boundaries and make sure that she can say no. If she can't handle any of that, she can't handle a boyfriend.
It also depends on where your limits are as to "serious" dating. Eg, being sexually active, going out to dinner, etc. How far would you be willing to allow your daughter to "go" with a boy? Kissing, making out...? You need to tell her what she can and can't do.
Hope this helps

ok..this is a hard one..
im 14 and i do have a boyfriend...
i will tell you right now...
my mom doesnt consent to the "serious" dating thing...
but JEEZ look at how society is these days... there are sooo many boys and she is just one girl...
im not saying let her do whatever...
im saying that if you do give a little more space each year as she grows, then you are gunna have some problems later on, starting with her sneaking around...
trust me...i've been doing it since 6th grade.
im just glad that my mom and i can have a healthy relationship and i can come to her if i have problems with a boy.
either way, your daughter will eventually date, whether you know it or not..
its just better to have an open relationship rather than a closed one.

Yes she should because she seems very mature about it and my daughter has a boyfriend and shes in 6th grade. I keep her relationship strictly at school but at 14 going to the movies and hanging out is fine. Good Luck.

more than likely she is going to have one wether you know about it or not, so I recommend going along w/it to a certain point that way you can see more of what is going on to monitor the situation better!! If she is hiding it, it will only be more difficult for both of you and worse things tend to happen when its "bad" also depends on how old he is at that age should only really be one to two years apart that changes in a year or two I think, Good Luck KIMBUR

I'm fifteen and I don't want (never had) a boyfriend because I'm also very school-oriented.
A lot of cultures out there (even in Europe) don't allow people to court until the age of eighteen.
I think that 14 is a bit too young...wait until she's sixteen.

If you don't let your 14 year old daughter have a boyfriend she will have one behind your back. The best way to go is let her have one and have him over at your house and get to know him, and make sure they don't have sex you don't want a grandchild now do you?

As long as you approve of the boy, and feel that she is capable of making good decisions, why not? Tell her to invite him over because you want to meet him. Make sure to talk to her about sex and why she shouldn't be having it if you haven't already. The school probably already has taught her about safe sex and abstinence, but you need to reiterate it. Also let her know that if she does decide to become active to please come talk to you and see about getting on birth control. It will make her more likely to actually come and talk to you when she is considering becoming sexually active.

To be honest I think it all depends on the child. If you think she is mature enough to have a boyfriend and keep up with everything else in her life. I guess as a parent its up to you but be warned if you disapprove she might rebel and still see him anyways and drive her away from you.

no? Why does she need one? Is she looknig to get married anytime soon? Thats what dating is for after all.
Maybe at 16 if she's monitored, but its better to just leave adult relationships to adulthood. Like 18.
I had a boyfriend at 16 only because my parents knew him and his family, and we were never alone together. But i wasnt allowed to date until i was 18. And aside from that one boyfriend i never did.
I certainly didnt suffer from it. And i certainly didnt have sex or get pregnant.
