Dear Youth 82 - Youth Magazine Staff - October 1982

Question 1: I'm 13 years old in about a week. A real cute boy in school asked me to a movie, but my parents say no - that I'm too young to date. I don't see how dating this boy can hurt anything. What do you think? Question 2: I know that the Bible says that we should honor our father and mother, but I have a problem. I do not know and have never known my father. How can I honor him? Question 3: I picked up a copy of Youth 82 at a friend's home and skimmed over a few articles. Frankly, I think a lot of what you say is baloney. You don't let kids have any fun. I date who I want, when I want and I do what I want on a date. Drugs, sex, whatever - I have any kind of fun I want and stay out as late as I want at night, My parents couldn't care less, and they're glad that I'm having fun. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
