yeah, if it just holding hands. i cant see anything wrong about it. even kiss can be allowed as long as it just a smack but anything more than that should be allowed in school.

I high school its ok to show some affections. I think it dumb for them to be out in the halls making out though cause not only is it annoying for others to see but its doesn't show you have a lot of maturity. I'm not talking about a kiss goodbye but those that sit in the hall and put on a big show.
Holding hands at that age is cute. Everyone knows your a couple.

Boys and girls? I think they are not mature yet. They shoul d refrain themselves from doing these so that they can prevent unwanted pregnancies or sexually transmitted diseases. It usually start from holding hands and kissing until they want to explore more. They get so curious and they get so excited and when they reached beyond their limitations, there is noone to stop them. That's outcomes come and they don;t know or haven't thought of the consequences of their actions. I would suggest that they do this when they are 18 year old. Goodluck!

Well, at my school, quick pecks are fine, but usually if caught kissing to long or making out is a no go. Hugs are fine to, unless its to long, the teachers will say break it up. Holding hands is fine.

ooh... i think it should'nt be allowed as it will lose their concentration on their study & others too ... everyone knows how powers of love can do .... : )
Similarly , it must'nt be in contrary with the purpose of going to school ... that is to learn/study & not making love... :0

For me it's ok if they are in Senior High School or University, that means they've been a teenager. But, I think only for hold hands each other. I don't like if they hug each other or they act like they are in their own world.. The worst is they Kissing! I think this can make other students feel annoy or jelous. besides, school is for studying, not for showing their love..

its okay for me as long as they dont go out of hand and that they are responsible for whatever they are doing privately.

why not? it's their life anyway. as long as the school administration puts enough limitations on how they show affections for each other i don't think there will be any problems. relationships are also a source of inspiration. it also teaches youths important lessons in life that are vital in growing up. as long as the grown-ups provide enough space, advice and guidance, things will go as smooth as possible.

Maybe, sometimes, you can show your love for one another but dont be too close because your too young to have a serious relationship right now. Just enjoy things first, before getting too serious with one another.

I think all these things depend on the social structure. Like in a conservative Indian society, and say in a small city, where people usualy do not like this type of behavious these things should be avoided. It is for ones own benefit as getting defamed is not affordable in a small city, especially for a girl, and she will have problems in her future, say with her marriage or with her hubby. When it comes to big cities like Delhi, a petty thing like holding hand can not be such a big issue and u can easily get away with it. But when u talk about an open society like here in Europe, even kissing, caressing and fondling does not matter to anyone. Overall one should always keep in mind that he/she should see the long term consequences of what they are doing. Besides I think its better that one should keep places like schools and colleges for studies only, irrespective of where u are, be it India, Europe, US or Australia. If they wanna enjoy they can enjoy at some other places like shopping centres, malls, parks, etc.

Dating at school? Not a bad idea but I prefer courting at school. Dating must be in a proper or romantic place I think.
