It is tough to raise kids in present society. There is so much pressure to "grow up" so young. Media really pushes sexuality at kids. When I was a young teenager, I was more interested in farming and playing basketball. We always made sure alley had a really good cow for 4h . Seemed to keep her interest in dating down. Wife always said you can get her a good cow or she could bring home a jackass!

Well Joe, what does a boy have, begins with the letter D(not scientifically but conversationally), and he’d like a girl to see it? |

At 17 was in US of Army, NO time for the running of girls, next up in trade school or working again No Time for running girls. Out on my own first Really full time HD Mechanic Job, worked 3 1/2 days first of week or end of week, swapped monthly 11 1/2 hour days, again little time for girl chasing but then had some time every other month with seven days off, met a gal was a move in within a few weeks and were together just at six months. Moved back to MO, into Night or rolling shift schedules, extra jobs or work and women a third or fourth consideration. Dated a few from work, did the bar scene, not much worked until met wife. Met at BBQ party, blind date that was not aware of by friends. Struck it off first day moved in together after a few weeks, engaged by a month together, married at end of a year. Been together 36, married 35 this summer. Four Residences, three full homes, two farms, misc. yelling matches and educations on confusing subjects that set those off.
Her Dad and Mom and I got along as if a family member from Day 1.
Still together and hanging in there, for now. |

Back when I was running the first thing I did when meeting a girls father was walk up and firmly shake his hand and introduce myself. I wrestled in high school and I was in pretty good shape. I don’t ever really remember ever feeling intimidated by anyone. I do remember my wife’s dad wasn’t too happy to meet me but that’s because of the D that she was dating before me. I can say I never really worried about their dads, there wasn’t much they could do to me that wouldn’t have landed them in prison. I always treated girls well and never took anything they didn’t willingly give so I guess I don’t feel too bad. That said, I sure hope my daughter never meets me at that age. Best thing you can do is teach them to be strong and confident in who they are.
My feeling is if you have to try to be intimidating, you probably aren’t. I agree with shameless. Be pleasant but firm. 90 of communication is unspoken |

Hee hee... enjoying everyone's comments here!!! I'll throw in mine, but advise against taking it for anything other than amusement: My son, at 15, had a female friend (16) over, they were watching movies in our (basement) movie theater area, and going to dinner after sundown. Not totally private, but not immediately monitored. It is, unfortunately, located in direct path between the basement stairway landing, and my electronics/radio shop, and I was in need of some tools and parts. As I came down the stairs, they paused the movie, I stopped, introduced myself to his female friend, and issued only one concern... "If my SON comes home pregant, you'll have some SERIOUS explaining to do..." (the look on their faces was PRICELESS!!!) His choices got much better over the next few... My daughter, from the first footsteps, has been rambunctious... loud, energetic, run-full-speed-tackle-hug me when I arrived home every night. She's an excellent archer, and at just-shy of 6ft, a monster goalkeeper in demand by local and state leagues. She can be quite mean at times, and she'll hold back no verbiage when she's got a point to make. Cleaning chickens suits her just fine... When she was little, I told her that she could 'start dating two years after she's married', and she's not afraid to let everyone know my rule. I feel SORRY for the boys that try to court her... so when I meet them, I just say "Hello, son, welcome. I'll pray for you." ![]() Really.... she's fearless... she's gonna hurt some poor boy... put 'em in the hospital... just being herself... Most fathers would lie awake at night, fearing for their daughters' safety... I worry about the boys she'd date. I suppose what I SHOULD do is warn them: Son, I'm a father of a fine girl... I'm strong, I'm dangerous.... but that doesn't matter- don't screw up, because by the time I get to you, there will be nothing left of you for me to see... she WILL tear you apart...

1 - Tyler, HOW did those little cuties get to be so,,,,,,,grown up??? They were just babies!! 2 - Joe, IF I had known ya when she was doing all that howling, I'd a tole you the one stopper that makes em shut up real fast. Yep, WE (the male) have the chromosome that defines the babies sex, BUT and this is the BIGGIE.....THEY had it last...so it's THEIR fault if it's all boys or whatever. 3 - Lou, that granddaughter of yours sounds like she's got some good Irish in her! Red headed green eyed devil.... When my daughter was starting to date, some of the guys stated to me that they were worried about me......I told them that I didn't care, don't worry about me, but her Momma sure did and she likes to hear that 12 gauge go chunk,,,bang... |

They're still pretty little Ted. 9 and 7. Just had their first school dance. Evie (9) ACTS like she doesn't pay the boys any attention. Cora (7) plays them like a starving catfish. She had 3 or 4 wanting to take her to the dance. She didn't go with any of them but I think she danced with all of them. Just thought it would be a fun topic

thendrix, just remember they'll not do anything that you haven't done when you were growing up. I always told my daughter that if you said no and they didn't stop tell me and I would handle it, never heard anything but she did get suspended from school when she was a sophomore for getting in a fight, she never said why she done it but said they deserve it. I always told the boys no meant no and to respect them like they were you mother. Ps I never met any of her dates I always trusted her decisions, her mother raise her well.

Love the stories. Dave’s reminds me of my first date after I got my drivers license. Dad handed me the keys to his truck and said “If you drink and drive, don’t park, accidents cause people.” I’ll never forget that.

Meeting my daughter's boyfriend for the first time was a delightful experience, filled with warmth and genuine connection. As we gathered for dinner, the atmosphere was charged with positive energy. His courteous demeanor and engaging conversation immediately put everyone at ease. It was evident that he valued family bonds and had a sincere interest in getting to know us. The evening unfolded smoothly, creating lasting memories. I couldn't help but appreciate the shared laughter and the ease with which he integrated into our family dynamics. It felt like the beginning of a beautiful relationship, one that resonated with the spirit of connection celebrated on platforms like https://www.luvfree.com

I asked a girl out when I was in highschool.
I went to the door and met her mom and dad. They gave me all the rules and said they expected me to follow them. I gave my word that I would. I then popped the question to her dad. I asked if the short bed bump side 4x4 Ford in the driveway was his. He said yes. We then went out to look at the ole Ford. We really hit it off and the daughter wasn’t happy. He and I remained friends. The girl and I did not pan out. |

Well, here we are 2 1/2 years later and Evie has a little t*rd that she calls a boyfriend. It's a middle school thing and that's the only place they see each other but I still don't like it.
I've revamped my first meeting plan though. I just happened to talk to an older gentleman one day and this came up. He said when his daughter went on a first date, he was cordial to the fellow and then, as they were leaving, he handed his daughter a quarter and said "if you need me you call and no matter where I'll be there". Can't use a quarter anymore but I believe I'll check if she has her phone then follow this pattern. ![]() Edited by thendrix - 05 Dec 2023 at 5:24pm |

Just be grateful is just at school! Friend's grand daughter brought her Beau to Grandpa's for affirmation was good enough, he has been railing about that day for weeks. Wussy, unable to drive a Stick, waste of good air and a appetite to beat Godzilla!! Fat Kid, homely yet his really cute Grand daughter likes him for whatever reason.

No offense taken at all Walker. I might just tell him that just to see the reaction.
Joe, little girls are the most awesome things I've been around. Yeah there's some worry but they're absolutely worth it. |

They are a blessing Joe and it's fun and challenging to talk to Granddaughters about their life. I think they like to talk to us is because we respect them, love them and we've been there. It's easier for them to talk to us. Least wise that's what she has told me. We help instead of being a parent who takes the hard road. I've got 4 granddaughters and so far 5 GREAT Granddaughters. LOVE em to pieces and they ALL want a tractor, cept the littlest two (so far), they're only 2 and 1.

What worried me the most about my wife's dad, wasn't what he said, bit what he didnt say. He didn't say much at all. And that worked better than about any attempted scares I had over the years, and I had an ex's crazy mother call the cops on me. Turns out like mother like daughter hence EX lol.
