The Champion Parents Lounge
2 daughters
Nora: 21 months old. Loves music and dancing. She was dancing even before she could walk. Is utterly convinced that if she just looks at you *just* right, she'll get what she wants. Mostly becaue she is very cute and and it works on my parents.
Lily: 5 months old. Already trying to crawl. Loves to smile. Watches the world with an air of "I know whats going on" she really shouldn't have yet.
Im already preparing my den for when they bring boys home. I have my awards on the walls, various war trophies from differnt missions, and my combat knife collection displayed on the walls, right next to my certificate of completion for urban warfare and IED making school.
When I was a kid, all that macho dad stuff made me laugh and their daughters rebellious. Never make a threat that isn't even believable. Not even the dumb kids really believe that you'll shoot them for fooling around with your consenting daughter.
As for kids of my very own, I have one or two. Usually two.
I guess it's time to head down into the basement and check.
That's why the dad should take the guy on a hunting trip. If the kid doesn't have the cajones to go, he doesn't deserve to date the daughter. If he does, then he'll get a first-hand look at how the father knows his way around a weapon, and how good a shot he can be. You don't need to instill the fear that you WILL shoot him, just that you CAN.
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
I think you all need to remember that you were all once that poor kid trying to date someones daughter.
That's the problem.
We all remember why we wanted to date their daughter.

Amen to that. We know what that testosterone laden teen is thinking cause we were thinking the same thing X number of years prior.

"I am not sure if my portrayal of being insane is accurate, but damn its fun all the same."
It is different when you are considering your own daughters, rather than when you are yourself "on the make". Over the years, the young man on the prowl becomes the father in the large recliner with the firearm. It's a natural cycle. As the young man, he is mostly fearless (and somewhat stupid); as a father, his only fear is for his family, and he sees nothing wrong with passing a certain amount of that fear on to young suitors.
Cheques and balances.

I'm sure your sister thought it funny too. But probably not. That leaves only two choices for your daughter to bring home. The first: a eunich who will acquiesce to your every whim or 2: the rebel, biker, drug dealer who possesses their own firearms.
Maybe it never occurred to the guys that the girls also want to get laid? I remember my first job, we had a lady working there who was about 80 years old. She used to tell us how well we have it now. One of her favorite lines was, "When we wanted to have sex we had to get married."

Girls can get laid whenever and wherever they want. Just as long as the girls getting laid aren't my daughters.
Double standard or whatever. It is what it is.....

This is exactly what occurs to the average dad of a teenage daughter, and exactly why they do what they can to preserve their daughter's integrity as long as possible. They won't stop it completely, but hopefully they drive off most of the losers.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a single guy without children who worked hard to circumvent those fathers when I was in high school. I won't ever be the shotgun-wielding father, but I can sure understand why some are when guys like me come walking up to their front porch.

I think that if they're mature enough to hold down a minimum wage job, get good grades in High School and have the brains to use the pill and a condom, they ought to be able to have sex and still have our love and respect, and formost self respect. After the age of consent of course. Thankfully my daughter is an Anime geek and likely won't lose her virginity til the ripe old age of 42.

With my aggressive lesbianization program, the two choices above are not the only ones on the board. I'm hoping my daughters brings home other girls. Then we'll have something in common and something to talk about. Otherwise, it's all maxi-pads and prom dresses and I only know how to take off one of the previously mentioned things.
As for the girls wanting to get laid all I can say is "nah nah nah I can't hear you cause they're my girls nah nah nah." I plan to live a long, rich life of absolute denial. Pregnancies? We'll name the kids Jesus and be done with it.

If she is into anime, she may want to go to some of the cons. I have seen some girls, they could not have been more that 13, doing some very adult things at those cons.
My wisdom, (what little of it I've been able to gather) is that if you try to lock down your child, they are going to do really stupid things as soon as they can get out from under your thumb. If you teach them high standards, and show them by example your living up to those high standards, and expect them to live up to those standards even if you are not there looking over thier shoulders, they will still make mistakes, but they tend to be lesser mistakes.
Also, take the time to talk to them and warn them about some of the upcoming dangers. Explaining with examples, that alchol makes you feel good, but it also makes you do stupid things you would not do otherwise, would seem to work better than simple telling them never to drink, without explaining why.
Explain that boys/young men/some older men, for the most part, don't have to maturity level to get beyound the want sex/will do anything for it level, so as the only one who has a functioning (mostly) brain she is going to have to be able to say no 'and mean it'. Self defense training and a gun of her own are added bonuses in the 'and mean it' department.

I've taught my daughter that it takes only 12 pounds of pressure to break a knee cap, to punch in the throat, not the face and that licking your arm pit is a REAL turn off.

Thats so idealistic and cute... and no bearing in reality. I've tried the high ground on a couple of other avenues and remarkably it didn't work. Not a lot of hope it will work on this front either.
Teenagers will do stupid things, no matter how much you teach them, no matter how much you show them a better way...... its a rite of passage. At least with the Iron Fist approach, I can minimize the amount of opprotunities for stupid actions to happen until she is on her own... at which point I have no liability for said actions.

Just be careful and maintain a positive relationship lest she drops from the face of the earth once she leaves the nest. I talk to my mother maybe once every few months... she was brutal to live with.

Lots of truth here, and it's important to lick your OWN armpit, and don't shave.

2 sons
Oldest will be 11 in august. Skinny as a rail and weighs less than the dog. Hilliarious to see him drug across the yard when he's trying to walk her. Good in school, plays baseball, and has the temper to match his red head.
Youngest is 1 and just as smart as can be. Very lovable and smart.
