Default Re: When you have a daughter....

My daughter just turned one. My first line of attack is to raise her to be a strong-willed, intelligent, independent decision maker. I think most young girls get in trouble because society tells them not to think for themselves and let the boys decide what to do, and we all know what happens then. Second, as others have mentioned, I plan on my wife and I staying as involved as possible in her life so she's not sneaking around (my wife is good cop, I will have to be the disciplinarian so it'll be a little more difficult for me).

I don't expect my daughter to never have any fun, and I'd feel awful if I bullied her into being a doormat or a sneak and a liar (like I was when I was a teenager). I'm sure she'll drink, smoke pot, etc, I just don't want her to be a [censored] idiot about it.
