OMG. My step daughters new boyfriend.

[mowin]

Well, let's just say, he's NOT on the same page as her mother or I as far as the current administration goes. Or for that fact her's. But he's "hot". (Her words).

I'm having a VERY difficult time even looking at this guy let alone listing to his ideas of the current administration. :banghead:

I know her affection towards him is superficial because of her often mentioned "but he's hot" comments.

Frustrated beyond belief. Not because his beliefs are not the same as hers, but because she's willing to accept them because he's "hot"...

HOT = NOT

:agree: :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead: .......... I FEEL YOUR PAIN ...... I'll leave you with the last line of a rather long poem " and if you make Her ....Cry ...... you will Die " ...... Good Luck ....... Mike :thumbup:

 

[Chupaca]

Ah well....

Been there a couple of times and know your pain...:gaah:we finally showed an interest in him and...she threw him out..:roflblack::roflblack:

 

[2dogs]

Oh Boy................

Your problem is not him.................it's her!

You sure? Maybe her beliefs aren't the same as yours even though you think they are. If she's old enough to be her own person you really have no choice but to let her be what she wants to be, like it or not. That's one of the dangers of parenthood, your child choosing to go in a direction you don't like.

Truste, I know how she leans. She quite vocal about it. Or at least she is when he's not around.

And we realize it's her choice. That's why we haven't voiced our concerns to her. It's her life. Her mistakes to make. If she chooses to compromise, it's her choice.

Tuff sitting back and not saying anything though..

I feel your pain, I have 2 step children as well.:banghead:

Daughters

Daughters are God's way of punishing men who were young men. Grateful that we only had boys!!!!!

 

[Grandpot]

My daughter is 36 and FINALLY met a guy that I actually like. They have been together for over a year now. Being a dad can be tough.

I feel your pain. My oldest daughter (step daughter, I love her as much as my own) decided that she wanted to come out of college and move back home (or atleast in with her boyfriend). My wife continued to warn her about this guy and she wouldn't listen. So I went the other route. I took him aside and had a talk with him. Told him that I didn't see what my daughter saw in him and that he had better get things together. Well after they decide to start a family (had twins), they then decided to get married. After struggling for about 7 years, he finally seems to have gotten things together and appears every day to try to prove me wrong. My daughter is now 30, they have been married for 10 years, and I have 4 beautiful granddaughters. He has a good job and they bought a house 18 months ago. I am proud of both of them, and just sit back and smile when my grandkids put them through the same crap she put me through.
My youngest is 21 and just graduated college this past December. She never dated a lot in school, but now is dating a young man who is trying to get into the police academy. Hopefully she will not put me through the issues that her sister put me through. She has always been more of a daddy's girl.
I always told both of them that they should expect to be treated the way they see me treat their mom. If they do that, they will be fine.

I have always told my Niece's boyfriends, "if you make her cry, I will make you cry. How you get their, I will leave it up to your imagination", "I have never been arrested, I have no problem doing probation". Seems to of worked so far. Good Luck

That just means a bit of back planning so you dont miss any of the commercials during the game.

That's a VERY good point! :clap: :2thumbs:

Hey Rob,
How hot does that smoker of yours get?

Ahhh..it'd be a shame to ruin it... :gaah:

 

[ARtraveler]

I have two sons. They are tough enough on me. Glad that I don't have to worry about daughters. They add a whole new dimension to parenting. :roflblack:

 

[Navydad]

Enough to give you gray hair...

Our daughter was engaged to a fine young man in Marine Corp. can't get any better than that. She broke it off and we were rather upset. She said she didn't think it was going to end up well and wanted to git while the gitting was good. He served his time, got out, and promptly went to :cus: in a hand basket. Today I respect him for his service, but he is worthless, plain and simple. She went on to marry a fella who I didn't see eye to eye with on much of anything, but it's going on 15 years with three great granddaughters and he is a pretty good guy. Just goes to show ya.

Our son was eighteen, had so many piercings that he looked like he fell face first in a tackle box. Didn't seem to have listened to anyone while growing up. Lost ball in high weeds. Today he is in his sixteenth year of the Navy and occasionally forgets the "tackle box" days, especially when he is jumping all over some poor kid who forgot and wore his earring onto the base. I always have old photos on hand when he talks about the sorry shape of youth these days :gaah:

The children now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise.

This quote has been attributed to Socrates and/or Plato, but evidently it comes from something a Cambridge student wrote in 1907. So, even if adults haven't been complaining about the next generation for hundreds of years, they at least have been doing so for over one hundred years. As has been often said, "There is nothing new under the sun!"

Well, I think our prayers have been answered.. there's trouble in paradise. :yes:

Fingers crossed.
