[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16 assuming actually date. And I do meet parents, make the kid feel welcome at my house for meals, homework, etc.  Hopefully give them a safe place to hang out together, so there's no sneaking around. [/quote]

How the heck do you “meet the parents”?[/quote]

You tell the kid your son/daughter is dating that you want to meeting his/her parents. Or to be introduced at the next event (assuming they met each other through school or an activity).  
 I also get the boyfriend/girlfriend's phone number.  [/quote]

Why?  The first time my parents met parents of the person I was dating was after I was engaged.  It seems a little much to be doing this in high school.

To OP, it depends and we don’t have any set rules.  My middle schooler regularly goes out with large groups of boys and girls together.  She regularly talks about boys but doesn’t say anyone is dating anyone.  They all go out as friends.

My high schooler never did any of that.  If my 15 year old wanted to go on a date, out in a group date or out with a big group as friends we would be fine with it.  The rules would be the same as anything else.  We would discuss where they are going, times and transportation plans.  Basically am I driving anywhere.  [/quote]
