Answer:
Too young. Let them grow up a little first.
Nope too young
Thats outrageous. Way to young to be dateing.
thats way too young to start dating
Dates? It's common for them to have "boyfriends" and "girlfriends" at that age, but that's WAY too young for dates. Usually they meet up at the mall or something while the parents are around.

Don't kids want to be kids anymore?
Say "no." 11 and 12 year olds are too young to date. That's it.
I actually think that isvery young for dating. But if it was my child i would take them out . Meaning go with them. But give them space just keep an eye out.
Well personally id tell he no... its way to early to be thinking of these things... I dont really get why every generation is starting dating and sex so much younger. To avoid any problems, sexually or not I would tell her there are more important things at her age than dating... YEs everyone else is doing it but that isnt a real good answer . Good Luck
Too young!! They should still be playing with dolls and cars, they are getting younger and younger every year and it gets them into trouble if they don't take care. Having boy and girl "friends" OK if they are outside playing but, not on dates.
11 and 12?? No way! Too young, she should be playing with Srawberry shortcake dolls, not going on dates. Be a parent, not a friend.
Yuck, no. Even if they don't have sex, they play really stupid head games and end up so messed up they can't have a good relationship when they get old enough.
A group outing.
rollerskating
bowling
arcade
there will be a chaperon
and they can get to know each other
as friends
this method has been going on for ages.
Look up this boy's family, talk with his parents. Make sure you know your daughter's boyfriend before you decide. If you do let them go on dates, chaperone! They are way to young to go out on their own. Keep them aware of their youth and inexperience.
way to young! i think as parents, even though we are older and should know better, we get caught up in the "everybody does it " bit. and i know i would be a bit taken back if my 11 yr old had come to me with the same thing. but we need to stick to our guns. it seems you aren't crazy about the idea of dating at that age either so do what you know is right for your child.
My opinion is 'aww hell no!' if they date at 12 theyll have sex by 14. I
I have one that is almost 12 and all of her friends have boyfriends and talk crazy (if you ask me) about "Oh I love him". Thankfully, mine hasn't had her first BF yet and would rather climb trees and play with lizards than that. I put forth a lot of effort to let them be kids, with the therory that if they are allowed to be kids, they will be ready to be adults. I say NO to early dating and BF's... Remember this one; "I don't care if everyone else is doing it, you are my child and I say it is not appropriate and the answer is no." She may be mad with you, but you are the parent and thus you will be teaching her morals, values, and individuality.
group date or just have him come over. im 12 and i go on group dates. sure my moms worried but thats what parents do. she trusts me with a boi and knows i'd never do anything i'd regret. so trust ur daughter and let her go, but not alone.
Tell them only if you can go along and chaperone - they may change their minds about dating.
Ask where are you going and then ask for how long then if you take them secretly sit behide them and watch if you live before it ends they will never know.
No way. Too young. Only if they go out as a group. With a chaperon. Meaning a parent. Don't make that mistake!
that is too young seriously. wait til she is mature enough to actually go on a date with someone
Sure I'd say Yes that is about the right age!
I say either a double date or a supervised date is fine.
Too young to go out by themselves. However you could let them stay home and watch a video or tv. under strict supervision and make sure the boy went home at a reasonable hour.Mind you Iam not keen on these type of relationships. Make it a social night with friends but with you supervising. You know what your kids are up to and they will go behind your back anyway.
ask if you can meet him
