Defcon 9..... Screw it. Defcon 999 As some of you may have read in a past post, I have been struggling with my liking boys and wanting to talk and date. Well, this boy that had come over to the house a few times while wife was home and I was gone, came over last night while I was home.  Stay cool. Stay cool. I kept telling myself.  Scare the shit out of him. Scare the shit out of him. I also kept telling myself.  Guess which side of the Dad conscience won??????? OK. actually I didnt do too bad. According to me anyway. I pulled the crazy dad thing and decided to get one of my handguns (I am safe and licensed and experienced) and casually leave it on the coffee table near the front door (OK, it sounds cliche and everyone has heard the story about the redneck cleaning his shotgun when the boy comes over. At least I had it laying on the table. sheeesh) He came in and stood looking at me and I was a good boy and stood up and shook his hand (squeezed a little, but not full crushing strength) and said hi and had a little small talk. My wanted to talk to him without parent ears around so we left them in the living room and we came down to the basement for a little bit (I brought the gun with me and didn't brandish it threateningly or anything.LO  . Our spy... I mean was still upstairs. Then we went back upstairs. I asked him if he liked sports and we talked a little bit and he told me about an upcoming trip he is going on and then I went back into the kitchen. Kind of like sticking your toes in the pool to test the water. Since we were upstairs, she wanted to go to her room so my wife told her to leave the door open and they did. We ate dinner and then he left. My asked me if I liked him. I said yeah, not bad for a little punk. (I need help or medication or a long hibernation until she is 30) SOOOOOO.... I talk to my wife on break at work. She tells me that our "officially" has a boyfriend. My stomach started twisting and turning. Deep breaths. Deep breaths. Breathe Breathe. I said "That's nice" and changed the subject. To be fair, he seems like a nice guy, if not a little nerdy. I'm glad he is not the star of the football or basketball team. It just bothers me that I hear her talking to her mom about some of her friends have had sex and things like that. Is it illegal to lock her in the basement until she is 30?  She is really a good girl. Has a pretty good head on her shoulders. I really need to trust her and am trying hard to do so. I am at least trying not to let her see how upset I am about it and saving that for private discussions with the wife. I'm glad I didn't scare him away (although a warning is always good. kind of like the "danger shark infested waters" signs on some beaches). I love my . She has been happy and smiling lately and she deserves that. I have to quit being selfish and start thinking about her needing to experience life and feel what it is like to have someone other than her family care about her. I just want her to stay my baby forever and I know that is not possible.  I guess I will continue to strive to be the bigger person and hold back my fears and give her a little freedom. |

Look at it this way, Indyman ... I wasn't allowed to have boyfriends at her age. Do you want her to turn out like me? DO YOU!?!?!?! Let the girl have her fun. It's time. "I could do this all day."       Visit Utterly Magical

I think that your daughter is very lucky to have two parents who care about her. And that goes a long way to keeping her out of trouble. It doesn't prevent her from growing up, but it might help her from growing away. Hang in there! It was great to see you guys on Friday! xox Ann Be sure to check out our group: Naughty and Nice Northside

Ann- Thank you so much for the kind words. We always appreciate your words of wisdom and advice. You are right, all we can do is let her fly on her own now, and still try to guide her in the right direction, and just hope she takes the right path. As parents, we have already molded her, and she really is a good girl. I can't complain too much. She is 15 and gets A's and B's and has adjusted well to high school, which is a tremendous feat in itself. Thanks again as always for stopping by our blog. And as always, it was great to see you guys as well on Friday. Hopefully we can get you guys out more often. Although I know it's hard with his schedule. Take care and talk to you soon.

Um, I'm sorry to tell you this but my daddy was very similar to what you described above, and I was sneaking around turning into the slut you know and love right before his very eyes without his knowing. Perhaps I shouldn't say that. I've seen you. You could kick my ass. Anwyay, all I mean is you have to try and talk to him more and be nice. The gun thing is too much. Seriously. That will make her think she can't talk to you because she's afraid to piss you off. Hell, I'm afraid to piss you off and I'm a full grown woman! Anyway, feel free to just ignore this. After all, I'm not a mom, I just play one at work.

Ask Indy wife. I am just territorial when it comes to my family. I have talked to him and will continue to and be nice (unless/until I have a reason not to. Maybe I can pay a neighborhood kid to whoop him. LOL. J/K) Thanks for dropping by!!!
