Teenagers support steady dating despite moral risks
A nationwide survey finds a majority of teens approve steady dating while many prefer dating around for broader social life. Two in three girls and one in three boys think chastity can be kept with willpower, though parents and clergy largely oppose steady dating for moral and school reasons.
