Should you get involved in relationships at a young age?

by Cristis Williams

Created on: October 16, 2008

When I think of the word "young age" I am thinking more like the preteens like ages 11-14 and I say, No it is Not ok yet.

There are a lot of steps that involve a relationships and Kids and preteens don't know anything about Life yet. Mostly everything a young Person knows is what they hear and see or read they don't have enough experience for a relationship. When A person of young youth starts developing hormones Then it is likely they are going to start liking the opposite sex.

Obviously not knowing anything except what they have heard or read in magazines they are going to make wrong choices, that is why young girls start having kids so early in this world and they think nothing is wrong with it because so and so celebrity did it! What? no its not Good to start a relationship at a young age there is to much involved in developing and experiencing one.

If they would just wait until they are of older age, no you don't have to be 25 to start life but at least 17 or 18 when you have common sense and know right from wrong we cannot hold back a child's hormones but we can encourage them to wait a while and inform them on the downside of relationships, and the causes and consequences of there actions.

They are not going to want to hear a parents opinion typically but they are going to listen in most cases of parents talking to there children.

This world seems to be going wrong as far as children that are young and already are in relationships like an adult would be. Remember when You would go on a date and the boy would pick you up and he would meet your parents and be a total gentlemen? Where did the time go Now there's one thing on there mind.

Most young ages don't Even tell the parents where they are going or what they are doing or who they are doing it with. I blame the parents and the society for this since you are responsible for your child's well being don't be there friend be there parent.

If your children are having boyfriends or girlfriends at age 12 or 13 watch out because, it seems the younger the age they start to experiment the worse it gets when they are older.

I know first hand how that situation goes I have seen it time and time again, and it is not a pretty experience for parent or child. Be aware of what your child is doing, but also Know how to give them room to breathe.

Parents Don't Let your Children develop a relationship early in there youth its Irreversible if something happens to your child and you will only blame yourselves.

Thank you.
