but why? Daddy spoils her for years and then when he tries to discipline, it backfires? So, that’s the cure for boys? I’ll punch my 17 year old in the mouth next time he answers back
My 15 year old is beginning to be a jerk w the eye rolling and other trash. Not all the time, and he is pleasant, polite and seems respectful to others. But he gives his mom attitude more often than he should.

yeah, that was a pretty dumb take, if you’re at the point of punching your kid in the mouth it’s too late and you’ve done it wrong

Pretty much.
A teenage girl is like a cat that will hiss and scratch at you yet still show up and demand to be fed.

There is also the fact of having the stress of worrying about girls constantly(their physical safety). Boys for the most part can take care of themselves, at least if you raise them correctly(which I did).
they are NOT!! That’s just some bullshite men spit out to make themselves feel better

My girls - no drama in this house - they are easy going, my boys - one minute they are playing a video game, the next minute they are trying to break each other’s necks - and maybe that’s just because they are boys but that’s a lame excuse
quote:yeah this is false - there are a lot of dusty arse half developed emotionally stunted men out there - and its because everyone believes boys can take care of themselves

Yeah - the physical safety worries me - my oldest is at lsu - she has pepper spray - but she doesn’t see well . The next kid is there and he’s a big boy. He says that if anything goes wrong at lsu, he’ll go get his sister first. But if she can see you, she will beat the frick out of you (ask her brothers)

I’m not going to speak on raising kids since I have none, but this statement right here is so damn true.

My father in law raised nothing but daughters. He pretty much agreed with me. It’s true some girls are easy to raise, like my wife, but on average I just have an easier time and less worry than he had. Having a daughter is just a different level of anxiety. I never stress about everything little thing my sons do. If I had a daughter I know I would.

Why do you think so many men are this way? My guess is boys need strong fathers and aren’t getting them. I was not perfect father and made many mistakes, but I was there and involved. That’s the key.

The logical next step is if you are paying for anything that she has like a phone or something like that she can also start paying her own bills. That sucks being a parent and not being able to checkup on your children but if she tells you that she hates you then she probably wouldn’t answer your call anyway. She is taking for granted everything that you do and have been doing for her. The only way to change behaviors is to experience failures. Sounds like joining the Air Force would definitely be her best option

And I don’t really mean being out late at night.

I've got 4 daughters
13, 9, 2, 3 months
The 13 year old was a handful 10-13, but we always stood our ground. The last 3-4 months she has had a big change in a positive way and its been so refreshing.
9 year old is a people pleaser and hates to dissapoint anyone so she always listens
2 year old is a daredevil and our "country bumpkin", she loves the outdoors, the chickens, the ducks, and always barefoot and in the mud.
No clue wha the baby will do.
Girls are difficult when that hormone change kicks in, just weather the storm

I was 1000x wilder than my sisters or daughters.
But my sons were MUCH easier in elementary school and as toddlers

Moms play a role too. The overbearing boy mom stereotype gets a lot of attention, but there’s the complete opposite end of moms basically not showing any true love or emotion to their sons. Those end up being the real fun ones to deal with.

My son called me the boss but he treats his wife and children wonderfully so apparently I did something right.

But maybe even if dad was there - mom was awful so son is still messed up
