Could I have said no?
Yesterday, my eldest girl who will soon be 22, ask me this - Dad, what do you think if I start a serious relationship with a guy?.
What would you have said if you were in my shoes?. After all she is thousands of km away in Sydney, legally an adult, does well in her exams and a well brought up, church going and disciplined girl.
I was happy she asked me for advice but I felt it was more like asking me for my permission. Don’t you agree?.
Oh well, we spent the next 30 mins chatting about this guy, the dating game, her MBA studies this year and how she will cope with now having to deal with some new issues in her growing up years.
Well another 2 girls age 13 and 17 left at home with me. I wonder what will happen if they too start dating. Any comments to share?
