Why Can't Mormons Date Before Age 16?


Listen Later

The LDS Church has counseled against dating before age 16. But why? And are there exceptions to the rule?   

Justin explains that when he was young, he was very strict about not dating before he turned 16. But this made others curious as to why he had such a strange standard.   

Kwaku, not being a member of the Church until he turned 18, says he wishes he would have had this dating counsel when he was young. He talks about his high school experience and how he dated people that weren't good for him. 

David mentions how this counsel isn't just old, white guy counsel that is out of touch with reality. He speaks from a millennial point of view, that avoiding serious dating at a young age saves a lot of trouble. David says it pays to wait to date.
