I agree with a lot of you. It's easy to feel comfortable in terms of dating with your son since you know, if you raised him half right, that he would take responsibly for any mistakes and eventually take control of his own life. With girls, you're always afraid some smooth talker will come along and "ruin" your daughter's life in one fell swoop.

EDIT: I took a gander at this after I posted it and, in conjunction with taking a gander at my avatar, I have decided I will not post any more in the Parenting forum.
