How to convince your mom to let you have a boyfriend when you're already going out with him?

Answer #1

Your 14 I agree with your mom… She’s telling you that for a reason. I believe you should listen to her and wait.

Answer #2

Ask her why she doesn’t want you having one and work it out with her. Because if your already going out with him then I doubt your going to stop for her.

Answer #3

In my opinion, having a boyfriend at 14 is perfectly fine. And I think a sure way to convince stubborn or strict parents is to find the reason for their rule, listen to them and prove you can be mature about whatever the situation is. Maybe ask her what exactly she has a problem with. If it’s sex, like all mothers worry about, prove to her you know how to use protection and you won’t be rushing into anything yet. Earn her trust and she’ll come around.

Answer #4

My mom originally told me I was not allowed to date until I was 16. I’m 14, currently have a boyfriend and I’ve had a few before him. My current boyfriend is the only one my moms known about. I didn’t really tell her about my other ones because they weren’t serious. But my relationship with my current boyfriend is very serious, so I just straight up told her. I mean she couldn’t really keep me from seeing him or anything anyways if she wanted to, considering we go to school together and I see him everyday. So I was like f*ck it, I have nothing to lose. My mom was actually really understanding and after I told her she was actually really excited and happy for me. She knows I really care about this kid and he makes me super happy and she trusts me, so she kinda just threw her rules aside. Does your mom know about this guy your dating? If she doesn’t, you need to let her know because she’s going to be really hurt if she finds out you were keeping this from her. If she does and she STILL doesn’t want you dating, I would suggest letting her meet your boyfriend. Once she meets him, (Unless the guys a total loser.) I guarentee you she will feel more comfortable with the idea of you dating and eventually let you date.

Answer #5

Your mum is probably dead set on this boyfriend ordeal. Either sneak with your boyfriend and try not to get caught, or wait till you’re older. The best of things, are hard to get or keep.

Answer #6

I think you should talk to you mother about and as some people here say ask why she dont want u to have a BF….in my opinion the more a parent says “NO” the more the kid wants to do the phorbiden thing lol

I personaly think if u have a BF just remember dont let him want to do things if ur notready and if u are then do it safely and responsibly

Answer #8

I think if you want to tell her maybe one of the best things to do is you introduce him, like bringing him round for dinner and you can say “mum, I’m in a relationship, would you like it if they came round for dinner?” I think the main issue for parents (I learnt this from my dad in particular) is that they always worry that first boy/girlfriends is a sign that you’re growing up, and some parents may worry that this is happening too soon. If you introduce him then she’ll see he isn’t some monster you’ll take your virginity (making an assumption you have it still, pardon on your behalf and you didn’t give out personal details if you feel it needs correcting) and hurt you. I mean, I had to tell my dad I had a girlfriend in order to tell him I was bi but when I broke up with her and got a boyfriend my dad GUESSED that I had a boyfriend. He just knew, it’s kind of weird. It’s never really been a problem with us so if your mum has any problems ask for what they are and talk it through with her. From experience 14 is around the age people I know start to date or have boy/girlfriends so it’s fairly normal.

Answer #9

tell her the truth and meet your mum with your boyfriend so she can trust you and if she likes your boyfriend she wouldn’t say something negative
