I am a Dad with daughters... and I think Ol' Doug is spot on...

When I was a young man, dads that were over the top like this guy just made me want to nail his daughter just for spite. I don't mean the ones who legitimately ask about you, your life, plans for the evening, and such. Any dad that neglected that isn't much of a dad. But 99% of the job of protecting your daughter is done before the doorbell ever rings.

Well said.
Im trying to raise mine to not even give
a thug punk the time of day.
To expect and deserve more from her own perspective.

I will keep a very close eye on potential daters anyway, of course, while at the same time letting them know I have very, very high expectations of them.

Oh without a doubt. I remember well the fathers that thoroughly pissed me off at first meeting. Job number one immediately became convincing his darling daughter just what a jerk he was, but usually she already knew.
