Well, In High School, I only had two girlfriends. I dated one girl in 9th grade for a few months, and when you can't drive and want to hang out, you kind of have too. As I got in a relationship with my second girlfriend who is now my Wife, same thing. But my Parents are pretty open. It really depends on what you want too do and if you can drive yet or not.

If you don't want to have them drive you, then sure I guess you don't have too tell them, but considering you're still a minor and your Parents do still have legal rights over you; I would at least go "Hey, I'm seeing this girl, I'll be with her at X spot for X amount of time." Too at least give them the heads up. If your Parents are like that though, you can try too talk to your Parents about it, it can be tough, and they might get angry. But you deserve too be happy with who you want.

I will say, when I have a daughter and she becomes of Age, I will know who she dates and where she will be, Because she is my daughter. I wouldn't force her to not date, but I will not let her ruin her life by becoming pregnant at 15/16/17. I can't stop her from having sex, but I will make sure she knows how to protect herself. So generally, 98% of parents generally are looking out for their Children, sometimes they can get a little over protective. It might be something you'll need too learn as you grow up. Its different for me, because I am that much older so I see it for what my parents would do and why, that I thought was stupid and annoyed me.

But back to the question, when I was dating in High School, I didn't announce to the house I was dating the day we started a relationship, but I let them know, who I was dating, and if I was hanging out with my girlfriend, so they know where I was.
