freshman is 9th grade.. about 15 and senoir is 12th grade.. 17 or 18.
I'd probably be careful.. parents knwo what happen. my 15 y/o sister i have custody of is pregnant because shes with a 19 y/o boy.. they've been together almost 1.5 yrs now and i would not let them date in the beginning.. then we kept fighting and fighting and she kept sneaking off with him and stuff.. i finally gave in so she would straighten up.. Now shes pregnant.. The still have a good relationship and hes a nice guy, but shes not old enough for a baby!!.
Thats Y parents dont like the idea..

LOL
"Age is just a number." You may have that argument when you're 25 and the guy is 40, sure. If you're... what? 14? And he's 17 or 18? Age is more than "a number." It's a big difference in maturity. Haven't you changed a lot from 11 to 14? Would you have ANYTHING in common with an 11-year-old? Hell no! Believe me (and your parents)... you are going to grow up a lot over the next 3-4 years. They know (your dad especially knows) how 17-year-old boys think. 17-year-old boys are ready for sex. 14-year-old girls are not. THAT'S why they don't want you dating him. I'm inclined to agree.

Believe it or not, your parents were your age at one time!
And Dad knows what a senior guy wants from a freshman girl......even if he is "the sweetest guy" you've ever met!
Your parents are only looking out for their daughter:)

well show him to your parents, if i was a parent id be a little concerned if my daughter was going with a guy who is about 3-4 years older, there are so many differences, he's going to college, or if not then he isnt a good choice anyway, he is independent and can drive and do whatever he wants, he could get u into trouble, and an FYI boys can easily manipulate girls but once a girl finds out shes pissed, dont let this happen to u, trust ur parents on this one, or atleast show him to ur parents, as a parent it is totally within reason to have doubts, there is no reason they shouldnt have doubts

you may have found the guy of your dreams but that's not how your parents are seeing it. they think (and are sometimes correct) that sometimes gross seniors will try to go out with freshmen, etc, and they don't want you to be one of those freshmen.
try bringing the guy over to meet your parents so they can make up their minds about him as a person, not as a number.

Because of the age gap, they think he might go a little ' too ' fast with you. Basically he's an adult and you aren't so their just scared for you if nothing else :)
Good luck!

i know how yo feel. but they care b/c since he is older he will treat you bad, and get you tino bad things, but just do what you want and who knows you could end up w/ this guy for a long time. but if hes going to college, most likely you wont be w/ him after this year.

i understand that you really like this guy and you think age is just a # but your parents are just worried that you'll get hurt becuz he can be sweet now but how do you know he'll be sweet later

I don't get these american year names.
What the hell is a freshman and senior.
Next time tell us how old you both are instead so people who don't live with the American schooling system can actually help you.
