Try having 4 of them! Granted, my oldest now 21, like polarisrider said is now like the "little" girl she was. Things do change with time, but, believe me, I FEEL your pain! My youngest is 10, & I see things beginning to change, I just tell myself, hang on, it will be a bumpy ride for a while, but it will get better,,,,,eventually.:rolleyes: -Mezz

HANG IN THERE AS OTHERS HAVE SAID IT DOES GET BETTER! From 13 to 18 is the hardest years of your life with a girl. And for all those fathers with boys my favorite life lesson was a friend of mine that was a player for all his life, and like most men loved to look at woman and frequent gentlemen's clubs as you boys call them. I told him as he to was raising a teenage girl, just remember for all those girls you admire and look at they are someone's daughter.A few years later his daughter left for collage and to start her life, and he was on the road with his buds, and decided to go to a club, to his surprise his daughter was on stag! He remembered my statement. If it's a boy or a girl it's tough.Be patient, give time,listen, watch for warning signs, be there though they think they are all it and grown up, and parents think they are old enough so the can slack a little NOT TRUE. Be a parent because you'll always be one till the day you die. Hang in there!

Yep, been there. Lucky for me, my wife fought most of the battles with my daughter. I was more involved with my two sons and their growing pains.:mad: Believe it or not, now that they are all grown and out on their own, (and our house is peaceful), I almost miss the drama.
Almost.:D

First...eat wheaties for breakfast...you're going to need ALL of your strength.

Secondly...NEVER listen in on the phone conversations with them because if you do...you will lose sleep big time.

Thirdly, never ever read their diary....you will definitely cry. It isn't a nice thing to see a grown man crying.

Forthly...it never hurts to clean the shotgun frequently as boy friends show up...knowing you have that gun around means there will be no shucking and jiving with YOUR little girl.

Fifth....yeah, buy several and keep them handy....it's going to be a long 8 years. Oh, and get lots of photos of yourself with real hair color because it will be all gone or grey by the time they return to you as your little girl.

Hanky please.....
