Originally posted by The Italian Stallionette: Having only daughters, maybe I'd feel differently with a son, I don't know.

This of course was when they were teenagers, but even after they were out of school and at home, they usually had no problem with their dates meeting me. I was lucky in that respect.

I'm with you TIS My daughters friend had to come in the house first and meet me and my husband. And we had to know exactly where they were they were going. And I insisted that he walk her up to the door when they got home instead of just dropping her off and leaving.
