Am i too old to hold my parents hands?

Question

i've been 14 for a week now and i still hold both my parents hands in public, e.g. the mall, or walking somewhere, like today i held my mums hand walking to the shops and yesterday i held my dads hand walking home from the park, and before typing this i held hands with both of them walking home from my grandparents, am i too old, I'm comfortable with this but i wonder what other people think?

Answer 1

It doesn't matter what other people think. As long as your comfortable with it :)

Answer 2

thats very sweet. do it for as long as you feel comfortable doing so. its nothing to be ashamed about.  

Answer 3

Lol no i still hold my parents hands and im almost 18... Obviously its not in a kiddy way anymore but i dnt see the problem with it lol.  

Answer 4

sounds like mum and dad did a good job. dont give in to peer pressure and become a pain in the proverbial!

Answer 5

depends how young you look. if ur 14 and look your age, while holding your dads hand it might look really strange. but if u dont care, then it doesnt matter what anyone thinks :) as long as ur happy

Answer 6

no ,

if you reach 60 you are still their own child,and they care for you and you should care for them ,you don't know how hard to have a small baby growing in front of your eyes day after day ,its 24/7 job and it needs lot of attention and love

we still need our parents don't be ashamed of doing something right

don't give a ****to what people might think ,if any one is a pig doesn't understand my loyalty to my parents then i dont need them

Answer 7

i think u should just care about what u care about not what other people think they probably make fun of u maybe because they don't have it so i would just not care what age, i still hold my parents hand and I'm 13.

Answer 8

I think that's really sweet. My daughter is six. I hope when she's your age that she will still want to hold my hand, but somehow I doubt it. She's already embarrassed about 'bed hair' when she goes out in public, and she refuses to be seen with me if I wear sandals.

Answer 9

Maybe a little too old, but if your comfortable then it doesnt matter what people think x*x

Answer 10

i think its sweet

obviously u feel comforted from this

as long as u dont grow up doing this when u are 30 i think its ok

by the way are u an only child?

Answer 11

honey grow up!!! keep holding hands untill your 18 seriously its ok ur their only child........

Answer 12

You sound as if you come from a loving family.

And you should hold your parents' hands for as long as you feel comfortable doing so.

I always held my Mum and Dad's hands, and now as an adult, I still do when the chance arises. My Dad passed away some years ago, and I will never regret holding hands with him in public.

Answer 13

It's absolutely fine. You're close to your family and I think that it is a good thing. Many teens walk around with a pout somewhat yelling at their parents. You show comfort and love between your relationship with your family. Way to go! I think its fine- I'ma 14 yr old and whenever I walk around with my parents I hold their hands in love :)

they love you and you love them so that's why you hold hands with them!

whether you're 80 or even 100, they will stilllove you and care for you b/c you are their only child. i think its sweet and wonderful that you show your affection towards your parents in public- more people need to do that!

there's nothing wrong with love!

Answer 14

I hope my daughter is never embarrassed to hold my hand.

Answer 15

Who cares what people think. I think that is really sweet. I want my kids to be holding my hand still not pushing me away saying mum your embarrassing me =)

Answer 16

as long as you feel comfortable then it's fine, I do it and both my 20 and 22 year old sisters do, although we are girls and it is probably a bit different for girls.
