    LOL! I love this question! It's a question every parent goes through. But something that all parent's don't realize is how badly the outcome can be if there was not acceptance. I mean, imagine if you told her she couldn't go out with this young man anymore. Would she say, OK I understand and appreciate your thoughts, or would she say, "What the hell do you know?!?!" I mean face it children now a days aren't scared of things like... parents. Maybe this guy is a loser but would you rather know what they were doing, where they were doing it, and why? Or would you rather run into her room and find her gone with the window open? It sucks but these are the questions you need to ask yourself. I believe you should just monitor what they are doing and remind yourself that this guy isn't the forever guy. Maybe it seems like it now but it's more than likely not. If he is, than I would suggest wasting. Someones got to look after our daughters?! :o)

    My mother tried to banish one of my boyfriends and it pushed us closer together. Eventually, I opened my eyes and saw him for the sleeze he was... four years later. Keep the lines of communication open with your daughter. If she knows she can talk to you, she will. As painful as this sounds, have him over for dinner often, it will be easier to keep an eye on him. Plus you will always know where she is and it won't be alone with him. Remember keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

    I think it depends on how old your daughter is. I think that if she is still a teenager and he is not doing any harm to her just let nature take its course. She will figure out on her own that he is a loser. It might take longer than you like but I think this is a lesson she will have to learn on her own.

    Send him to a deserted island.Too many winners in the world to waste on the big L's.

    err.give him a chance, if your daughter really likes him, then let her have him, you want her do be happy right? ok, then let her have the guy, maybe have your daughter talk to her bf about behaving a little more or somthing, but you shouldn't tell them to stop dating or anything like that hope i helped =]]]

    wether you like it or not, you cannot control who your daughter dates, chances are he's just the 1st one in a long line of loosers that you will meet, my advice is let her date him and pretend to like him, then ask him to come on a guys day out with you and take him out to a shooting range and ask him to put an apple on his head and stand in front of the target, when he refuses, ask him, " what's wrong, don't you truse me, and explain to him how your familys all about a circle of trust, have him stand there, put some blanks in your gun and shoot around him, just for giggles!!!

    honestly, the more you tell you daughter that you don't approve of her boyfriend the more she will try to see him. you should probably let her find out for herself that he is loser.

    How old is your daughter? Chances are if she's young, he will be gone pretty soon anyway, unless of course she has his baby.

    By all means be a good parent & run him off by any way necessary!

    She'll realize how bad he was when she gets older.

    make your feelings known and then move on. the more you speak, the less she'll listen. in time she'll probably see that he is a waste of time.
