       What are your thoughts on children and teens dating? What is
       okay and what is not okay?

       Children . . . definitely not! I think young adults would do
       well to just enjoy concentrating on forming good friendships
       (especially with other Christians), socializing in group
       situations and focusing on their studies, even when one is older
       (18 or there abouts) and away at college.  Society puts pressure
       on young people to date (and worse, to engage in sin by
       "exploring" their sexuality) when they are still not emotionally
       ready to handle it.  Were I to have become a parent years ago, I
       would have encouraged my kids to just enjoy their high
       school/college years and begin dating when they were older and
       they felt they were ready to find a husband or wife. (I say all
       this looking back on mistakes I made when I was this age.)

       [/quote]Depends on the country. In some countries children get
       married at an early age.

       It is not OK to dating children but teens can. But not get deep
       in the releationships.
