If you've just met someone and started dating them, would you bring them to your family holiday celebrations, or do you think that it would be better to wait for a while?

I would say,, it will be better to wait for a while. Reason is simple. Your dating relationship is not matured yet. Let it grow, once you feel comfertable about the person then introduce to your family. You do not want to introduce and give break up news early next year.
Be patience... give some time to your relationship to grow
I think I would hold off on this. The holidays is a time for family and close friends and I don't think it's the right time to bring someone new around. If you've been with the person for a few months and you were planning on bringing him/her around to meet everyone soon anyway then go for it. But if it's someone new I would wait.
I agree with everyone else here. It`s too soon. Now if you were dating for awhile it would be ok. And maybe he would invite you to his family celebrations too. I have never brought a date to holiday celebrations.
I wouldn't bring anyone I just met to a family holiday celebration. I just think that would be odd for the person and for me. I wouldn't mind taking them to a work or friend function though.
I think it depends how soon it is before the holidays along with where you see see that relationship going. Do you think by the next holiday (same as the first) the person will be around? If so, go for it, if maybe, don't - and if you answer no, you know the answer already. :)
I think it depends on how you feel about that person and how that person feels about you. If you both feel this could be a serious relationship I would say yes, if not no. In my family around the holidays there are so many people coming to visit it wouldn't necessarily be a serious thing.
As a male, I'm not usually comfortable visiting the family of someone whom I just started dating, whether it be holiday celebrations or not. Oftentimes when ladies bring in their new dates, the family will ask questions that is uncomfortable for us males. Questions like "do you know the favorite movie or food of our daughter?"
I'd rather take time knowing her so that I know the right answers if ever I will be asked.
