   My husband and I both have a good relationship with our daughter but for some reason she still didn’t want to hear it when I subtly tried to suggest the same thing to her. What was affective though is when her father said it. I was shocked at how well she responded to him. He just very casually said ‘I don’t like the way he treats my little girl’, next thing you know she had broken up with him.

   We were really concerned with our daughter since we had been fighting each other over her boyfriend for months! Then school holidays came up and we thought she was going to run off with him for two weeks so I called my mother (who lives an hour by plane away) and arranged for our daughter to holiday with them. Our daughter was thrilled to be spoilt by Gran and Pa and we had a nice break from the boyfriend. As it turns out (and we did not plan this) she had such a great time with her grandparents and when my daughter was telling her grandfather about how unreasonable I was being he asked her if he treated his beautiful girl properly cause if any boy hurt his girl he’d come down there and kill him. It turned her right off her boyfriend, and next thing you know she met a gorgeous boy up there who was their waiter on a night out. Now we’re happy the boyfriend is gone but now we are getting the huge phone bill for the interstate calls to the new long distance boyfriend.

   We have only just gotten over this one ourselves! After months of agonizing over this terrible boy our daughter bought home it was just one word from her big brother and the boyfriend was gone. Had I known her big brother could get through to her that easily I would have enlisted him a long time ago to help us out with all the issues that go with teen girls!
