When you were a teenager (ages 13-19), did your parent (s) ever tell you that you should date and/or go to a dance?

Funnily enough my Mum liked dancing, but my Dad only danced when he had too, so dancing was not popular when I was living at home.

I didn't know of any dances that were available when I was a teenager, and I never learned to dance, nor was I ever encouraged to learn to dance by my parents.

When I left home I took dancing lessons, and I fell in love with my gorgeous blonde dancing instructor, but she already had a boyfriend that apparently didn't like dancing, so our relationship was just at dance classes.

no, bc my parents didn't really give a shit

like my mom sometimes would talk about stuff like that, but it was really just her snooping and trying to control me lol

no never. my parents never incited me to do any of that back then, if anything they were more against it especially my dad.

I grew up without parents from the age of 12, so I was able to skip all of that bollocks.

I am a teenager and my parents are rather against teenage dating.

I was allowed to go to school dances, but I wasn’t allowed to date.

I hid my dating from them
