in all seriousness bri -- it's a tuff ass world... know all you can about where she goes and with whom... take NOTHING for granted... if there aren't parents RIGHT THERE... anywhere they go... movies, games, parties... TROUBLE...

my youngest (male) is 14... and I'd make your hair fall out with stories... he's on a leash that's about 2 ft long... and that's 18 inches too long...

I used a variation of buckins line... I took him to the deck.. showed him the back two acres and said "I know I've said I look forward to grandkids... but that's for your 23 and 21 year old brother and sister... if the child is yours, you should point out just where you'd like to be buried"

It's a very different world out there today as far as boys and girls go.
The wife and I were already warned (at a parent-teacher conference) that we are going to have alot of trouble next year with the girls when my twins get to junior high. One of my twins dresses like a slob while the other, well he knows he's got it. Lucky little shit.....

Thanks for all of the great advice and feedback. Exactly what I have come to expect from BP'ers over the years.

The dance seems to have gone well and she had a great time dancing with her buddies. She did have one dance with a boy orchestrated by one of her Sophmore friends on the golf team. Another boy wanted to dance with her but was to shy to ask. He told one of her friends that he didn't know her well enough, even though they have class together and have talked :tongue2:

I have no unrealistic expectations that she will be a miss Polly Purebread. My only hope is that her mother and I have guided her well enough to make good decisions about who, when, where, and how.

Oh yeah, and that she doesn't end up in CCI's parade in the Romper Room.....

I do not have any children. I do, however have two nieces.

As I have told my brother many times....

"I do not have children or a wife, you do. If someone needs "dealt with", let me handle it. Just put some money on my books every now and then." :biggrin:

Sometimes, less is more.

As a very young lance corporal, there was a relatively brief period where I spent no small amount of time with a full bird colonel's daughter. Was always interesting knocking on her door, praying for the mom or a sibling, always getting the dad. Strange coincidence, that.

I just remember one morning waking up (clothed, thank god) in his family room. We had been a bit lit and I definitely had not meant to stay, but had fallen asleep with her down there after coming in from wherever it was we had been out. There was no noise, no alarm went off, no talking, but suddenly, despite only having slept for a few hours, I woke up and realized he was there (in uniform, no less) quietly staring at us tangled up together in a recliner.

He didn't laugh when I said; "Well, this is sort of awkward, huh? Uh, 'sir'?"

So I left. Quickly.

That marked the end of the 'relatively brief period'.
