What is the right age my son and daughter to start dating other people?

of course they’re not dating each other! i was asking when is it right my children to date?
other than what? themselves? they are dating each other? WTF?
Hope they not dating each other.
Look around and view what other mother’s and daughter’s and son’s are doing.
Better still why not just wait for either one to let you know - they will be ready in their own good time.
They can starrt dating me at any age they want.
I think about 14 is fine
when there ready its up to them not you
when they not asking anyone that question. i would say at 16
Some teens start dating when they are 15 or 16 but sometimes parents don’t want them to date until they are 18. It really depends on the kids..
There’s no starting age but usually, people would classify the age of 16 as the age of maturity. I suppose this is the age where most teenagers would become more mature and are able to differentiate right from wrong. Perhaps this could be a considerable age to start dating.
However, this may vary from person to person. I think as long as their morals are firmly etched in their foundation, any age would be alright. Afterall, it’s provides more experience.
neither one of them should be dating until they are at least 18
im not letting my kids date until they are 15 but they can “go out” at 12 you know how kids are!
It depends on them and when they feel ready and when you see that they are mature enough. I had one daughter start dating at 14 because she was old enough and mature enough but i only allowed double dates or with groups. my son didn’t date until he was older like 17 and my youngest did not want to date so we made a deal to take the stress off her I told her she could not date until she was 16 that way she could tell the boys asking her out that her parents would not let her date at 14 and 15 . She took her time and now has a great boyfriend. and is very happy. The other two are still looking.
16 but i’ll prefer 18, its on the patience level of both.
Depends on what you consider dating
In a group setting I would say 14 but one on one I would say 16. Kids grow up too fast today and that is why we have so many problems with teen pregnancies (just look at the number of pregnant teens asking questions here).
Let them be kids a while longer and if they argue stick to your guns.
It’s never right for children to date.
Group dates, as soon as they are intrested in the oppisit sex. ALONE dates, when you feel they are ready. (usually around 14-15
Any age that they are mature enough to understand what the consequences can be.
Old fashioned courting where the boy spends time with the girl at her home with the parents present, I think this is the best! But when going out at the ages of 15-16 I think double dating is best where other adults are present too, ex movies, restaurants, etc. At 17-18 single dating is ok but still prefer other adults present. When they’re alone to much temptation is there.
lol, I knew what you meant
I’d say 16 but not alone, or by themselves (that’s how babies are made, lol) chaperoned until 18 is fine, after that well we can’t really intervene anymore, we just hope all of our hard work will pay off.
Just my thoughts, then again, I’m just a tad bit old fashioned.
