My mom and Dad's rules
Well, I have something to ask, and It's bothering me so much. There's this boy who asked me out. I like him he likes me, But My Mom and Dad forbid me to date him! My Dad still sees me as his "little girl" but I'm grown up now, and I think I may love this guy. HELP!

Soon you will be a legal adult and be able to date whomever you want.
I'm sure you will have many years of dating.

... how grown up are you?
Your parents are looking out for you... I promise. When I was in middle school, my parents forbade me from dating as well, and I would argue and whatnot, and now that I look back on it, I realize... they were right. If you really want to start dating, then I suggest you sit down, have a grown up talk with your parents. Tell them that you like him, and want to see him, but will also abide by their rules (curfew, how often you can see/talk to him, how your grades won't suffer, etc.)

Well, I'm not very grown up, but my Mom and Dad say I'm very mature. They say I act like a well learned college student... But It's really a prob with My Father... Not much My Mother.

Your mom and dads rules are very legit. Very reasonable. Your way too young. Try not to grow up too fast.. Your far far far from grown all up. You may be able to say that at 21 but not at 11.

Why do you want to date? What will you do with a boyfriend? What's the hurry?
Your parents are looking out for you, that's what parents do. At 11 you are not mature enough to handle a relationship.

Have to agree 11 yrs old you aren't even in the 6th grade yet. You need to enjoy your years as a kid they are something you never get back and when you grow up too fast you don't even have the childhood memories.

I have to agree 100%, eleven is way too young to date, heck, I think 14 is too young. Enjoy being a kid, you only get one childhood, don't be in such a hurry to grow up, there's plenty of time for that later.

Of course I was shocked today, I had two of the neighbor teens, help me clear house today, pick up a lot of old paper work, shred it, and haul it to the trash areas. In talking, I asked the poor how old he was, I think it was 14, the girl, was taller, and looked about 16 if I had to guess, she was 11. Phsycially far too mature for a 11 or 12 year old the way I remember it.

Exactly, and they'd have to be back before dark, and mom or dad would have to drive them to wherever they're going. I don't get it, at 11 I was still playing dolls and having fun with my friends, boys were still yucky. Is there something in the food that's making these kids grow up faster than normal?

Your dad calls you "his little girl" because that's what you are. Your parents tell you that you act maturely because occasionally you do, and it's a parent's job to encourage their children.
At 11, you're still a child. That's not an insult, don't hear it as one.
Prove your parents right (that you do act maturely) and respect their instructions.

Kids do develop allot faster nowadays. They say it's the extra hormones in milk and such. I do know that my neighbors daughter started menstruating at the age of 6, I can't imagine that.
I understand that hormones do have allot to do with it, but still, an 11 year old, no matter how physically mature, is no where near emotionally mature enough to date.

Yeah I know that sometimes they have pre-teens (12 and 13) on the day time talk shows and you would swear they were 19. They dress with the low cut tops and the mini skirts and nothing to the imagination. Then people wonder how a 19 yr old boy ended up with a 12 yr old girl because she lied about her age!
