My 16 year old daughter thinks she is in love with a 35 year old man. she has sneaked out to sleep wit him. I am so hurt?

She is 16 and still under your jurisdiction. Have you heard of 'consequences'? Sneaking out and being with a man who could be her father should have consequences.

You support her as she is your child. Take a few things away from her that matter to her. Cell phone, stereo, internet service, whatever until she understands she cannot defy you in that way.

She needs to learn that you are the boss and that what she is doing is NOT okay. She is still a child in the legal sense as well as emotionally. Taking it to yourself is futile.

All kids are rebellious. It has nothing to do with you. She wants what she wants, and she needs your strength and discipline, not hurt emotions coming from you.

That only brings you to her level. She has not betrayed you. THAT is how 16 year old girls think.

If you want any control whatsoever in this situation, you must add consequences to the equation here and stick to them. Skylight 24 months ago.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
