Re: Promise Ring, did you buy your daughter one?
Folks,
Grandad with a 21 yr old daughter as the mother.
Some may disagree with what I am about to say and it is your preference to do so.
Don't be blind.
Don't be fooled.
Check your screens on your windows for damage. If you think they are in bed, they may actually instead be out and about, and trust me, they do this. So, if they do this, what do you think about sex?
As hard as I tried, as disciplined as I was with my children as old fashioned as my wife is, kids will do as they see best. After all, remember, you don't blow up from having sex and it is actually quite enjoyable. If we enjoy it, they do to. If we get turned on by making out with a person that you are attracted to, they do too.
So...........provide them with the necessary education, instill good values and wait to see what that roulette wheel does and where it lands. It is out of your control beyond that.
While I am not proud of what my daughter did based on my old school conservative values, I love my grandson dearly, I have no grudge towards my daughter and I support her fully. It was her choice, not mine.
BTW, I have a family member that thinks his 22 yr old daughter is a virgin.
My kids say differently, with whom she has been forthright and confessed.
So, I say nothing to her dad. I let him live that fantasy. Meantime, I am sure he looks down on me for my "misfortune".
