maybe it's because they are worried that you might get hurt.

My parents let me date in groups. like, me my boyfriend and two other people. i think that 16 is a little old, but don't worry too much about it.

I don't think you kiddies should worry about dating. Personally, what's the point of dating if you can't drive. I think sixteen is a fine age to start dating... if I find someone before that then ok, I'll go with them and see how it turns out. For whatever reason your parents have for you not dating until a certain age is something you should respect. Most of the time, parents know what they're doing. Don't worry.

It's not all that big of a deal. You'll find that boys suck.

i think that sucks. i dont noe when exactly my mom will let me date, maybe my junior year or when she trusts the guy i want to date, but honestly i dont really care cuz ill do it anyway. i think she doesnt want to let me grow up, but she wont be able to stop guys from calling. of course i dont really have to worry about it rite now, cuz i dont have anyone to date here at the moment. :-\
