| It amazes me how nowadays kids in the 6th and 7th grade are 'dating'. What does everyone think is an appropriate age to start dating or is it all based on maturity? |
 |
| Spoiled + internet = "weird" childhood. |
 |
| I don't see why anybody should give a shit. |
 |
| As far as I know kids to some extent have always been "dating" in Middle School or hell, even elementary school but ... well this is put in quotation marks because it usually doesn't constitute dating but rather is more about imitating what they see adults do (both in real life or on TV) ... I think its actually fine for them to mock date as younger children cause at the very least they get real world experience about certain aspects of dating (spending more time with just one individual, actual dating, what you like/dislike in people, etc.) however if real dating is considered to be going out w/ someone w/ the intent of marriage or love than yes, you could say this is just mock dating ... But I think it isn't too big of a deal, in fact its entirely "meh" in my opinion, people probably would argue "its dangerous! It encourages sex at younger and younger ages!, will it stop w/ first graders having sex?!?!" but they totally forgot one hug fact ... Puberty ... And so what if younger kids (middle schoolers and up) have sex, I certainly don't wanna know about it, but as long as they learn how to use protection it is quite literally their own fucking business, in all regards of dating I think you can't be told "your too young" ... |

| i started dating when i came out of my mom's vag. Hitting on those babies in the infirmary. just saying |
| I first noticed people my own age "dating" at 10 years old.. I do not see it as a problem since despite popular claim, kids can actually know what they are doing. |
| sexual incest in nisomonogatari - no one bats an eye romance incest in SAO - everyone loses their minds |
| Kids date in the playground, they're not really dating they're just playing around and pretending to be all grown up, so they can talk about break ups and romances as if they actually know what's going on - call it the Hollywood/Justin Beiber effect. It's like when little kids play house - slightly older kids decide they're going to play bf-gf lol. It's stupid, but it's they're childhood let them do what they want unless they're popping out teen pregnancies but trust me that's never what happens ..although having said that I was in an incredibly posh school back then so teen pregnancies just weren't on the agenda. XD |

Neane1993 said: The Little Kiddies-( ages Kindergarten through 6th Grade)- They see it on Hannah Montana The Young Folk-( 6th-freshman year)- They think they will get the supposed "popular" if they doo. The Grand years-(Freshman-Seniors)-Some actually want to date because they like them, and others because they're insecure.. Want to be Grownups/ Growups( COLLEGE-Grandmas)- Either for money, or actually like the person. Think for High school and up (maybe even middle school but call those early bloomers) they might wanna date for sex too ... Money / Love are nice and all, but sex is just as big. |

| Come visit my town // I apologize in advance for my second-rate English Join my fan club // Improve the transport network |
| Mostly these little puffs are getting girlfriends and somehow think it makes them "big", or at least that's how it seemed in my Highschool days... |
| Each to their own I suppose. I mean if anything it helps develop social skills |
| They watch too much TV I saw kindergarten kids "dating" |

Fiddy said: KyandiKun said: kids are people too and they can do what they want at any age its there right Did you type that with a straight face? LOL Kids are people but we have to remember that their brains are under developed. They dont have as much emotional, reasoning and problem solving strength as adult brains so they are more prone to making bigger mistakes. I think its alright to protect your children enough so that they dont make large mistakes but let them have enough freedom so that they make and learn from their smaller mistakes. |
| Young people are dating? |
| Man, if they want to fuck themselves up, let them. They'll learn real soon. -_- |

Also, I know a couple who were 3 grades higher than me that started dating in 5th grade? They broke off like twice, but always got back together eventually. He proposed last year, getting married in two months. You can date whenever you like, it doesn't matter. |

| I don't care. |
| i dont care what they do as long as they dont bother me |
| RRRRRRRRRR |
| I had a "girlfriend" in grade 6. She gave me potions on Neopets. You jelly? |

| does dating really mean anything at that age? |

I see it as natural selection: the smart ones won't do that, so all's well in the end. The problem is, that it's doing it's job a little bit too well and a little education would do them a big favor and prevent some of the pointless suicides. |

I didn't consider the cowardly part of the "younger" population. If they can't handle a silly breakup they have no business dating. |

MOLLY123 said: They watch too much TV I saw kindergarten kids "dating" I have seen toddlers playing house where they are mom and dad ... doesn't that go a step farther than dating? Your logic is kind of ... well ... flawed, and very much so. |
|
| It bothers me a little, but it's a rather trivial matter that I don't devote any energy to. Maybe if they had sex at like 12, but that's a whole 'nother topic altogether. |
| it's one of those inevitable things, you guys :O |
 |
| it's better that kids are actually dating in person at that age rather than turning to the internet to get groomed by pedos at least |
| I think it's pretty weird, I guess there is no way to avoid it though. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| AAh that's nothing. Yesterday i saw my little neighbours f*cking each other brutally in my yard. I looked shocked, they looked at me, well guess what no shame at all in those eyes. That's nowadays generation for you.(btw my neighbour is 9) No seriously i don't give a shit what nowadays generation does. Listening to Justin Bieber is f*cked up as it is. So i try not to care anymore. |
