I think it’s both, but so many aspects of being a teenager is like that. So much bad shit happened to me (and I’ve heard stories of others) that wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t dated as a teenager. At the same time, it was a time when everyone was out learning these things and making mistakes. I wouldn’t be the person I am today if I didn’t have those experiences and in an odd way, I’m grateful. I’m glad I learned what to avoid when I was fifteen instead of later in life.
The teenage years are a really vulnerable time and everyone has contrasting opinions on how « adult » they should be treated and I think dating is an element of that.
