| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 6:52:50 AM | My questions is why date a 17yr old?
Why not date someone closer to your age?
I just dont understand the reasoning about dating a child,...and yes IMO she is still a child. I cant get the bad visual out of my head,...you in your nice car trolling around the high school looking for the hot young girls,...sorry man it just creeps me out.
Back in the day when i was 21,..we had an unspoken rule,....never EVER date,..talk,..or socialize with a girl that had "Teen " in her age. | |

Why not date someone closer to your age? Normally don't stray more than a couple years in either direction of my age group, but this is a different situation... explained better below.

Back in the day when i was 21,..we had an unspoken rule,....never EVER date,..talk,..or socialize with a girl that had "Teen " in her age. I guess I can shed more light into the situation for those who are interested. First off I'm not "trolling" the high-school parking lots after school... The gal and her family have lived down the road from my grandparents and other family for years, we go to the same church, and have known each other for as long as I can remember. | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 7:53:30 AM | She is only months from 18, correct? And you don't believe in premarital sex? You go to the same church, and have known each other a long time?
Yes, I would "allow" my daughter to date someone like you (4 years older) if she thought he was a good guy.
Since girls generally mature faster, the guy being 4 years older might just make them more on the same level. Maybe not in your case, but heavy sexual pressure and expectations would normally be of concern though ... especially if my daughter is "innocent". | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 12:16:10 PM | Since you have known her for as long as you can remember,...then why the rush now,...why not wait a couple more yrs.
I'm sorry ,..but i do find this a bit creepy.
Please dont take it personal,...i mean you sound like a nice guy,...good education,..good job,..with a possible great career. But to me its just creepy.
Can i ask you this
why are you asking this question?,..if you think that its ok
Sounds to me that you might be thinking that it is a little creepy and MAYBE,..looking for approval | |

Actually, the reason I ask... is that although I've known her mother forever and a day, I'm unsure of the how and when to approach her about it, and I want to get some feedback from other mothers, hence the title of the thread. Though you seem to be jumping to some conclusions... I do plan to wait until shes older before getting into anything serious. To answer the last part of your question "Do I think that it's ok?", all I can say to that is she as well as myself can't help how we feel. | |

I'm asking this question to you moms out there, would you let your 17 year old daughter date someone four years her senior(21 years old)?
you ask that,..not when or how to approach the mother.
Since you hinted that i shouldnt post because i am not a mother,..i will say that I am a father,..and i wouldnt approve of it.
And I have a right to my opinion on this matter,.. just like you have the right to post.
You pass yourself off as this smart nice guy,..when in fact you looking for approval,..because deep inside you know its wrong. | |

You pass yourself off as this smart nice guy,..when in fact you looking for approval,..because deep inside you know its wrong. First off, I didn't even read your profile to see if you were male or female, so that post wasn't directed against you posting; and I welcome anyone to post. Second, by asking if other mothers would approve of it, I can gauge their reactions and better figure out how to approach her mom with it. | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:03:15 PM | I'm not a girl but if I had a 16 yr. old daughter that was dating a 21 yr old, I would first off tell him "I'm not afraid to go back to prison" (no I have never been) and if that didn't work I would take care of it myself  | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:07:53 PM |
and if that didn't work I would take care of it myself Only to realize you'd bitten off more than you could chew, so you would then proceed to give me $20 and say "have her back by 10pm".  | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:08:53 PM | I'm not a mother but i'd be perfectly happy with that, four years is NOT a big deal and at seventeen you know your own mind.
At 17 i had a relationship with a 27 year old and that was only slightly to large a gap, We got on great we just weren't into the same things. | |

Like i said,...Your looking for approval,...whats next???,...getting on your hands and knees and begging.
Dude,..i just dont understand you at all,.....What are they teaching in college now days?? How can you possibly not see that this is WRONG!,....The thing is that you do know its wrong,...thats why your asking how to approach the girls mom. It makes me think ,....what the heck is wrong with you??,...Are you that insecure that you have to hit up on teenagers and not someone your own age or older? | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:20:44 PM |
what the heck is wrong with you?? Far too much to explain with a simple post. On a side note, I took the time to read your profile... lets just say I'm not overly surprised that you are having marital problems, you went off on me after only a short conversation, I can only imagine having to deal with you on a daily basis. Good luck with that.  | |
|
| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:42:53 PM | Did i strike a nerve,...seems that i did since you want to bring up the fact that i am on here for help with my marriage,......rather than face the questions.
Thats cool,...just proves that i am right.
You can hide behind your college degree ( if thats true) and hide behind your glasses,..the fact of the matter is that the more you post the more other people see who you really are.
Your just a wolf in sheeps clothing ,...looking to take advantage of a teenage girl. You are not MAN enough to handle women your age ,...so you go after little girls. | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:49:36 PM | Did i strike a nerve Yes somewhat, and I'm sorry for acting out against you, wasn't right.
You can hide behind your college degree ( if thats true) and hide behind your glasses,..the fact of the matter is that the more you post the more other people see who you really are. Not really sure how I "hide" behind my education... as for the glasses, I wear them all the time... even when its dark, just a big glasses person... but I digress.
Your just a wolf in sheeps clothing ,...looking to take advantage of a teenage girl. You are not MAN enough to handle women your age ,...so you go after little girls. You are entitled to your opinion, but you are quick to pass judgment on me, when you really no nothing of the scope of the situation or the people involved. | |

| Question for all you mom's out there. Posted: 8/25/2007 1:49:50 PM | I have a 17 year old daughter... and if some punkass 21 year old wanted to date her... then he would have to deal with me first. And there wouldn't be a good way to approach me with this...
Oh, and OP... no matter how tough you think you are... there is no one stronger than the mother of a daughter that is in jeopardy. | |

Please refrain from name-calling Considering you aren't anywhere near where I live... why are you taking this personally?
