My 18 1/2 year old daughter dated a boy who is spoiled, and has some obvious anger issues. My daughter is a senior in high school as well. This boy is almost 21. There are not a lot of people I don't like but I have had some reservations about him since the begging, and he has done some things that my husband and I don't approve of.Most of which are how he should be treating our daughter.
He was supposed to make up a date with her , in which he came to pick her up she was all dressed up and when she asked where they were going, he told her he didn't make any plans that they were going to go his parents house. Long story short she was upset , he threw shoes at her head from upstairs and when she started crying he threatened to hit her. His parents came home had it out with him in which he stormed out and spead down the street in his sports car. His dad brought our daughter home and said that he would not let her date his son that the way he treated her was not acceptable. Now our daughter broke up with him a month ago but come to find out she is trying to start another relationship with him. My husband and I told her that she can't date him and that if she chooses to that we will not pay for school or a car for her. My daughter doesn't care however she is living in my home and we are taking her to work, teaching her to drive ( because she is a late bloomer) trying to get her to be independent.. However she is being disrespectful and still thinks she can date this boy who is abusive, she says she is not choosing between us, that we are making her choose. We told her that she is an adult and if she is going to make adult choices than she needs to figure it out. Now with this said she is not in any position to move out , but thinks she can be disrespectful and still live at home. My husband and I are debating if we should kick her out with 3 months of high school left only because she is at a point where she does not think we will , but will continue to drive her where she needs to go. Don't know if the tough love approach is going to be good or bad, but are tired of being disrespected and don't think we can keep her from this boy?
