well, like me, I somewhat from different family background so my mom told me i can't have boyfriend or date before i gradudate from University.Besides, I don't want to oppose my mom or hurt her either...
so...tell me.. Do you think youth around my age need permission from the parents to have a date or to have boyfriend/girlfriend?
I think the cultural differences may be coming into this, as well as your Mum being worried it may affect your studies. Western beliefs are different to Eastern in many ways, in the West i would say no it would rarely happen.
moonlove: Hey, Morgon.. Do you what going with thailand culture now? thanks for advice..yes, she told me excatly like you said..she worry about my study...
No not really but i did live an Asian country and learnt abit about culture and saw that parental opinion was very important in the family, and is listened to,

moonlove you live in Thailand and are asking people who mostly don't live in Thailand for advice on something that is very cultural. Thai culture and western culture are vastly different so it's not the best idea to consult Falang about a Thai family problem...better to ask your classmates and friends.
90% of western falang will answer no to your question because they don't understand the cultural dynamics involved. I don't see it as a yes or no question...more like consult your feelings about your mom and your need for a boyfriend and find out which is stronger...also consider the pros and cons of each situation and make the decision that hurts you the least.
Tough choice I know but put some effort into it and I'm sure you'll work it out.

I don't think you need permission at your age, but in mind every culture can be different and speaking with parents on the issues is always a good thing.. cheers
