    Next time just get right up in her boyfriends face and tell him to remember one thing...Whatever he does to your daughter your going to do to him!

    LOL, Shotgun. He is not really my type, but I will at least make the threat.

    When are you going to call me again, you darned ol' 12 guage sawed off?

    You did a really good job with this situation. I can have nothing but respect with how you gave him the chance and supported your daughter, even if you had reservations regarding him. But you also were clearly communicative with all involved about the facts. You were involved but did not intervene from the start. You just had your cards and honesty on the table.. when he used your daughter and turned into the jerk that he is.. you handled it. I don't know how anyone could have handled it better than you have.

    I hope her heartache heals quickly..

    Corvin, You are the man. That was very well played. But personally I think you let teh little sh*t off too easy - handing his ass to him sounded like a good plan even though he didn't push you that far.

    Anyway, you played it very well and I respect your reserve in not mopping the floor with his face or having him thrown in the slammer...

    I hope I can do the same when it comes time for my daughter to date ... taking the high road and all...

    Now, I really don't want my kids to be teenagers...I may spent those years curled up into a ball.

    Congrats Corvin on a job well done.

    I would have choked him.....

    Yup. Because I am so angry at him I would have....

    You are the better person Corvin!

    We dont care. Its not your issue. He did an outstanding job, and I will remember what he did for when my daughter starts dating.

    Corvin, as a young (not teenage anymore but close) female, I can really appreciate your parenting skills. Being completely open and honest with your daughter was the best thing to do, obviously, and had a great outcome. I only wish my father had been like that. I could never let on who I was dating or that we were having sex because I was afraid of what people would think, esp.him, he would have been dissapointed in me-and that is the worst feeling in the world.

    I would have loved to have a father as open and honest as you. Perhaps I would have told him more and let him into my life.

    Also, your story sounds similar to my experiences (not first hand, fortunately) with witness young "brothers". I truly believe that that little twirp is a good example of how a lot of young brothers really are. I can give you 2 examples of almost the same exect event that you described above from my circle of friends alone! And they are a sexist bunch. You raised your daughter to be too good and independant for that BS.
