She wants to date someone. She is very young - not even sixteen - but she sees people around her dating, having some sort of relationship with a member of the opposite gender. Society has ruined her. How can I help her? She is to young for a committed relationship. Her friends can not realte to her. What can I say that will help her to get over this for a few years?

But she's not even sixteen. Not even close to being old enough to date. She's just entered into the teen years.

its easier for her 'to get over this for a few years' if she has something to do
first relate to her by doing activities together -like playing sports ~voleybal, tennis, soccer, basketball...~, talking, walking through parks(nature), helping her with homework, spending time together ... doing interesting things...
and then you will be closer and it's easier to discuss the problems and isssues with dating and relationships at a young age
and listen to what she has to say even though she is young
you can also ask the help of your parents

hhhmmmmmmmmm
while I agree that maybe she's too young to be alone with a boy, I can't seem to see any harm in her dating.
Why do you think there is?
I think you should get a boyfriend.
15 or so is about a normal age for girls to start dating and getting their first kiss. This is normal!
Just remember - as the years go on, the older we are becoming when we date/marry/procreate
A couple hundred years ago, she would have been at the marrying age... humans aren't just going to lose this instinct... by all means, I don't think she should be having sex or anything too serious... but I don't see anything wrong with her dating a little bit... it's good for her - YOU TOO!!
Be young, have fun!

You can't tell her not to date...she will end up doing it since she wants to...that's just how kids are and it's not a bad thing. dating isn't terribly bad. but guide her and talk to her about it. keep an open relationship where she can tell you all about her relationship and feel comfortable asking you advice...it is way better to do this than say "don't date" and then she goes off and dates behind everyone's back and end up in problems. and 16 is an ok age to start dating...

Leave her alone! Dating is not a committed relationship! Dating is dating! Don't tell me, she prettier than you, right? Likely to have bunches of boy friends. Jealousy rearing it's ugly head?
