Thanks for the great thread.
Y’all are hilarious!
Even when I was dating in the early 1950s your rules would have made your daughter a spinster for life!
Sorry, but boyfriends almost always trump dads. I did. When my wife was my 16 year-old girlfriend, I followed all of her dad's rules, when I was in front of him. But when I wasn't, look out!
I'm sure your daughter loves you, but she needs to learn how to be an adult. Caring for a boyfriend is part of that. Happy Father's Day!
“Caring for a boyfriend” = sex?
You sound just like my father!
(I’m now over 59 years old and have never been married. Here’s hoping you take the hint, old fart.)
“Ten Simple Rules for Dating my Daughter”
I have ten simple rules for dating your daughter, too, but I think you may not like them!
A band beast is just a member of the band. Some are of course more beastly than others. Some are downright wimpy. :)
This guy was pretty beastly .. until he saw that shotgun.
You’re kidding right? Either they came in to meet me (I don’t care if it’s a date or just a bunch of kids going bowling) or my child wasn’t going anywhere. That’s rude and disrespectful and I won’t put up with it. Besides, part of a parent’s job is to know who their kids are hanging out with.

My dad was a detroit cop during the 30’s 40’s and retired in 1950. His service revolver was one big ass 6 shooter...My dates had to meet him, he was usually laying in bed reading a book and would conviently have this huge gun laying beside him on the bed....never had any problems with boys...He wouldn’t even look up for the book and just say have her home by 10 oclock....I always was...:O)
Well put! Think I’ll print off a few stacks of these in case the boxing trophies in my foyer don’t send a clear enough message :)
Too cute...just sent this to my son who has three daughters.
LOL
Actually, this sounds as much like my daughter as me. She pretty much lays the law down to her boyfriends. She’s been shooting since she was 8 and can beat up most boys that have gone out with her. She’s now 26 and I’m getting nervous that she may never get married. She doesn’t put up with any crap and usually dumps on them. Maybe I TAUGHT HER TOO WELL.
Thanks for the thread. I have only one daughter who’s 8 now, so I’ll need this contract in a few years.
That’s hilarious !!
Or you could say “ Never piss off someone with access to a pig farm. My best friend for years who owns one told me a bunch of pigs can eat a entire human, bones and all”
I grew up in the country. Once when I went of a date, I had to sit in a room with Dad and her THREE brothers all cleaning guns. I got the message. They were also all bigger than me.
I also remember when they would say “Have her home by 11:00” and I would say “I’ll try”.
Dad then said, “Don’t try son, have her home by 11:00. DON’T MAKE ME COME LOOKING FOR YOU!”
When he was 17 he bought a used green Holiday Inn van to get to school and to pick up horse feed. My dad absolutely refused to let him pick me up in that van so he sold it and got a rusted out truck instead.
It was a real lemon and it died in front of our house. He and dad actually worked on it together the entire weekend.
Dad also did the “cleaning the shotgun” routine one night but it just sparked a conversation about hunting and proper cleaning that lasted well past our movie start time. Mom cooked and we all watched a John Wayne movie.
I was pretty sure right then I was going to marry him.
