No, she even won't tell her mom about it. Usually she shares her feelings with me rather than with her mom because I am a cool dad. When she shared it with her mom who always criticizes her, she can't stand it. FYI, she will be 21 next month.

If even you had a daughter, she won't tell your wife everything.

Have you watched the TV series like The Modern Family or The Middle? It's exactly what the teens live today. They use the facts of life and add humor to them.

So when if you had a daughter and she had an issue, would you tell her to go to talk to her mom? Not so cool. Bad dad/daughter relationship.

My daughter shared a lot of issues with me and I helped her solve some. But you would leave it to your wife? Why? Because you are a guy? SMH

U orignally thought 15 years sentence for that couple that made love on the beach is cool, makes me wonder if u have excessively punished your kids to the point they dont trust u.

I didn't say that they deserve that kind of punishment. I said that they asked for trouble. It means that they should get punished for it (not necessarily meaning I support 15 years jail sentence). WDYS thinks that it should be 6 months. It's reasonable enough plus fines. BUT what does the beach sex incident have to do with this thread and my dad/daughter relationship? :roll:

Please move on.

What does this have to do with this thread? Its called disciplines, I havent change anything. Lack parents equals lesser disciplines that leads to wild kids, parents that overdisciplines kills trusted relationship.

I wouldn't exactly base real life on some FICTIONAL tv shows.

There are all kinds of parent-kid relationships that I've seen. Some work awesomely some don't. I know at least one mother whose 3 kids (both genders) talk their mother regularly and tell her (almost) everything. I know of some mothers who are closer to their daughter and would rather pawn the son off on his father. I know of mothers who are closer to their son(s) than daughters.. and vice versa.

What works for DHB would not necessarily work for you CP. No need to question his motives or parenting style- it works for him.

I'm no parent (just an uncle) but have observed quite a few parents in action (including my own).

Oh boy,

What planet are you from? My daughter didn't give me the details about the breakup because I overdisciplined her? Come on, it's called privacy. You are a parent who fail to acknowledge it.

Maybe it's too embarrassing for her to talk about ? I guess it would be to give it time and maybe she will want to tell you later on.

You brought your daughter in post # 97 so this is why I said something about it and I said nothing about a beach incident here. :roll: :roll:

No, the post of mine replied to DHB who talked off point. I mentioned that you think it should be 6 months sentence. That's all. Next time read it carefully please.

Well, she's growing up so she's starting to think that it's no longer my business to know. Know what I am saying?

Yes, at least I do....she is 21...nobody's business unless she wants to share it. Actually, to get any information out of "kids" these days is to beat around the bush...and not ask direct questions or be "blunt".....Or you might get a reply like "Stay out of my business!"....and if you do get this reply, just apologize (hard for a concerned parent to do)....and just say..."Well, he seemed to be a nice guy"...and "was just concerned how you feel"....and "sorry it didn't work out".....sooner or later, she will come around and "maybe" share her feelings...if she doesn't, then it should not bother you, as it's not bothering her....

One of my sons was in a 2 year relationship with a girl that I really liked (personality) and she was respectful...but they fought and argued so much...I was glad when the relationship ran its course....I had to keep my mouth "shut"...knowing if I said something about it....it would make things worse.....Now he's found a great girl and has a baby!...Very happy....AND...I keep my nose out of their business!....Sure, many times I want to question something...but I don't. Because it's none of my business.....PERIOD!

Thats called life, deal with it. Why?

Simple, I do NOT own my kids. My kids themselves are the one that owns them. Its all about respect ur adult children privacy. Cant u do that?

I do not want my parents involve my relationship with my wife, and I do the same with my kids, and that is the life as we know.

Yes, I know. Don't you see, that's what I tried to tell WDYS in post #117. I know that's her own life, if she doesn't want to answer, that's fine with me, alright?

Long story short, she told me why she broke up with her first and second boyfriends but this time she doesn't want to tell me why she broke with her third boyfriend so be it, even though I think the third one was the nicest guy I have met. I think I shouldn't say anymore about it.
