Dads with young daughters...

[htismaqe]

My 9-year old is obsessed with Taylor Swift. It's my fault, I have encouraged her to play the guitar (yes, she's the one I started the thread about a while back).

Last year, I took my oldest daughter to a Chiefs game for her birthday. I spent around $250 for 3 tickets.

It was my time to make it right, so I spent an almost IDENTICAL amount per ticket as I spent on the game and bought 3 tickets to Taylor Swift in concert.

I am almost certain that I will have to go. ABSOLUTELY not my type of music.

But I can't wait to tell her!

RIP.

Mods, please mark as a prayer thread.

[Deberg_1990]

Its all good brah…We all have to make sacrifices for our kids. At least its not One Direction.

[Fish]

The music sucks, but I've learned that the joy of watching them completely blissfully mesmerized by something like that makes it worth it. Plus MILF watching always passes the time.

She's gonna love it for sure. Good on you.

Good for you, you will be glad you did it. The memory will last a lifetime and you two will not have this opportunity forever. She will be all grown up wanting to do stuff with just her friends soon enough.

[htismaqe]

Yeah, my kids don't generally get into that kind of stuff.

The only pop music she's high on (besides Swift obviously) is LMFAO and PSY but that's just because I think it's funny as shit.

Yesterday I caught her singing "TNT" by AC/DC in the car. :D

My oldest likes Queen and that's about it.

The opening act is Ed Sheeran, anybody heard of him? My wife played one song it sounded like typical English pop to me.

[otherstar]

I've got four daughters, it'll be worth it. Any 1-on-1 time I get with any of my girls is precious to me (and hard to get because there is one of me and four of them). Cherish the time




....and enjoy the MILFS!!!!

It won't be 1-on-1 since I bought 3 tickets.

Swift has dated a lot of guys, but i read something the other day that said the reason most of these guys are dumping her is because she doesnt put out much.

Somehow that doesnt really surprise me about her, either.

[okoye35chiefs]

ah man your lil girl will be so excited... I have an 8 year old daughter and I have done my fair share of "chick" things...

Priceless when a Dad can spend time with a young daughter.. because in 8 years they don't want anything to do with you...lol..

Good dad right there..

20 years from now, she'll laugh as she remembers how she drug you to a Taylor Swift concert against your will, and how she loves you that much more for it.

Props for being a kick ass dad.

I'm terribly, terribly sorry.

My girls think Justin Bieber is a girl. :D

Don't worry. I hear Tyler Swift is covering " Children of the Sea" . Although I'd rather hear her version of "Long Live Rock N Roll".

I'm terribly, terribly sorry.

Yeah.....it honestly fucking sucks. The one positive thing is that I don't let her listen to that shit when she's driving with me. She listens to that shit in my wife's car.

htismage.....looky here man.....many moons ago when my girl was lil.....I had to take her to the Pokemon movie.
let that sink in for a moment.

the POKEMON MOVIE!
OK. you feel me G?! would I have traded that for T Swift....DUH!
it's just to mean to say STFU....so I'll just say.....it could be MUCH MUCH WORSE!
good job dad.

[htismaqe]

I took my high school girlfriend to a god damn Kenny Chesney concert and my fucking god I WISH it was T Swift.

I took some illicit substances of the quite mind altering kind when I was a senior in high school and then ran into a girl that I was kind of fond of...

She asked me if I wanted to go to a concert and of course, in my state of mind, I thought that would be AWESOME.

I was completely oblivious to reality all the way up until the opening act came out on stage...

http://ts3.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.4549586746082438&pid=15.1

It was at that point that the girl said "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you the concert was NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK."

[In58men]

She probably doesn't know how to fuck.


I can picture her as a 2x4 on her back.

[listopencil]

I don't know how old all of your daughters are but here's a word of advice: Start making a list of "chick flicks" that are bearable to watch. You might want to grab copies of them now, especially the older ones. Build a library of these for when they are older. In the middle of the school week when there isn't much time and it's hard to go do anything, grab one and make a giant bowl of popcorn.

I had to take my 2 year old daughter to her first concert, The Wiggles. We actually had a blast! We had good seats so I was able to take her up to the front (mosh pit) so she could dance with a handful of other kids. A bunch of kids and moms then me. One of the Wiggles actually gave me the thumbs up when he noticed I was the only dad up there.
I already bought her a mini drum kit and she plays along to Turbonegro. Hopefully there will be no Taylor Swift concerts in the near future.

[Graystoke]

Man I have been to some shitty concerts, all for my kids behalf.
Some were actually fun though.
And with age comes taste. Baby steps...Baby steps

I will NEVER watch that movie with my girls.

Haha. I ran into an old friend picking up pizza last Friday to take home to our family's. He was like, "What you up to tonight?"

Me: "Nothing, going home to hang with the kids, probably play some Skylanders, watch Clone Wars, fart on each other. You?"

Heavy sigh, "Not sure, but I imagine it will involve Barbie movies and Barbie dolls."

I'd never been so glad to have boys. ROFL

Phineas and Ferb. All fucking day....

Could be much worse, it's actually a pretty good kid's show.

[Mike in SW-MO]

Few years back I took my daughter & her soccer friends to see the Disney heart throbs perform at state fair. Funny to watch 11 yo girls having screaming spastic convulsions.

By intermission I was shoving toilet paper in my ears. One of my girls was crying her eyes out cause her ears were hurting. Girl sitting behind her never ever ever quit screaming. We traded spots and I began the training course. Every time she started screaming, I stood up so she couldn't see. She would quitand I would sit down. She'd scream. I'd stand. After about 5 minutes we had an understanding.

Take ear plugs just in case.

[htismaqe]

To scary?

Too stupid, I think.

The one time my wife saw them watching it, it was mostly low-brow humor about butts and vomit.

I'm not really sure, I've never seen it and it is my wife's rule.

They watch Disney more than anything else (Nickelodeon is like A Clockwork Orange with commercials) but it's mostly "Austin and Ally" and "Good Luck Charlie". They hate "Jessie".

I LOVE Taylor Swift. Don't think she's super hot, and don't really like her music. I love her because she actually writes her own music, and walked away from the first label that signed her because she didn't like the direction they wanted her to go with her music. They wanted her to sing other people's music and stop writing. She's incredible in my book.

This!

My daughter is 17 now...sometimes when we are just sitting and watching a TV program together or just sitting around talking, she loves to bring up what we did together when she was 8-10. And when I see the sparkle in her eyes talking about all the fun she had back then and how she loves me for how I went to all those "silly little girl things" it makes everything worth it. I once took my daughter to an American Girl store....stood with her as she pretty much looked at everything they sold for almost every doll they make.

Now....we talk about music (we share the same musical interests), baseball (Lord help her she is a Yank-me fan) and peruse Listverse together. And occasionally she will whisper...."Dad, you are such a dork"...and smile

Not to hijack this thread, but for those guys whose daughters are all grown and moved away....do you occasionally get out the old albums and look at the pictures just to smile at the memories?

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Now see, that's something I can respect despite that fact that her music doesn't appeal to me at all.

Seriously. She's one of the few pop star/celebs out there right now I would trust my children to look up too. She's a whore, but she doesn't publicize it. She writes songs about them. ROFL

Hippie.

You know, I've been somewhat of a hippy my entire life and never had hair longer than about 2".

Maybe I'm having a mid-life crisis.

Yeah, even my daughter says "man, could you imagine being her boyfriend. She'd get mad and write a song about it."

ROFL

I've let my kids paint my toenails, braid my hair, I seriously just don't give a shit about stuff like that.

It's fun and they love it.

See that's the kind of thing that makes you the best Dad...never let your ego get the best of you. And when they get older and start looking for the man they want to eventually marry, they tell you they want someone who is just like you...someone who loves their mom, plays silly games and doesn't care what others think.

I once skipped down the hall of Metro North with my daughter just because she asked me to. I figured I would catch all kinds of catcalls....as I was standing in front of the Disney Store that was there at the time, this big guy standing next to me leaned over and said...."I saw you earlier skipping with your daughter...I could never do that". I actually felt bad for the guy...

Well, always love your children. Tolerate the obsessions, especially if it involves teen female pop idols.

I am taking my 8 year old daughter to a father daughter dance tonight. It is all about making memories, as they will grow up in the blink of an eye. I also have a 13 year old daughter, and she really flipped the switch this year from my little girl to a full blown teenager. Still a great kid, but a tangible change.

My daughter and I do that kind of stuff in Target and Wal Mart all the time. Oh the looks we get.

That's about the time I look around beside and behind me confused and then my daughter says, so that all the gawkers can hear her, "who farted?" :D

Yeah, our father/daughter dance is the end of February.

I sent you a PM...it's a link to a story I wrote to my daughter on her 16th birthday.

Ahhh...Father/Daughter dances. There's a memory they NEVER forget. The picture we took together that night when she was 9 and we went to our first Father/Daughter dance is still on her Bulletin Board. So many things have come and gone on that bulletin board but that picture has never moved from it's spot.

And yes....that first teen year will kill you. Not personally...but in your heart.

It was cool. You should let more people read it.

I took my high school girlfriend to a god damn Kenny Chesney concert and my ****ing god I WISH it was T Swift.

Kenny Chesney was singing those love songs to you.. not your high school girlfriend.

Dude I've always shaved clean since right out of high school.

One day I just didn't. My wife was pregnant and says she wasn't shaving there towards the end, lol, almost ten pounder I can say I blamed her. So I told her I wouldn't either. I still haven't, she has of course lol. She hates it
Its great

I took my 9 year old daughter to work with me today. She blew insulation in an attic while I loaded the hopper. That was awesome. Plus, I paid her in "whatever you want at Hardees". She chose that over $10. I'm gonna have to teach her better.

[Phobia]

This!

My daughter is 17 now...sometimes when we are just sitting and watching a TV program together or just sitting around talking, she loves to bring up what we did together when she was 8-10. And when I see the sparkle in her eyes talking about all the fun she had back then and how she loves me for how I went to all those "silly little girl things" it makes everything worth it. I once took my daughter to an American Girl store....stood with her as she pretty much looked at everything they sold for almost every doll they make.

Now....we talk about music (we share the same musical interests), baseball (Lord help her she is a Yank-me fan) and peruse Listverse together. And occasionally she will whisper...."Dad, you are such a dork"...and smile

Not to hijack this thread, but for those guys whose daughters are all grown and moved away....do you occasionally get out the old albums and look at the pictures just to smile at the memories?
I was just marveling the other day that mine don't remember the big shit we did. Sure, their memory is jogged by the pictures of Disneyworld and other expensive vacations. They remember little crap like when their sleeping bags got soaked in a downpour while camping or jamming to ridiculous songs like Chumbawumba on the radio.

Yep. They remember the most minor, mundane details.

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

Take her to the concert and be happy and pretend you like it. She'll never forget it and you'll get a big hug for your efforts.

Nah - don't do enough insulation business to justify that setup but I wish I did. That's money there. This was just dry attic stuff. Easy. I just spread out the stuff she got too heavy and I did all the corners and edges myself.

Thanks....I appreciate it. My blog is actually pretty easy to find. Writing runs in the family. I have a brother who runs a Christian website and has written a couple of books. My younger brother is the more cerebral writer...has some deep stuff.

I'm just the casual writer/casual observer that likes to write down-home pieces.

Exactly....they talk about the big things when we do, but their best memories are dancing on their daddie's toes to their favorite song, being curled up on a cold winter night watching movies, their favorite night trick or treating when Dad dressed up with them and Father/Daughter dances.

Sometimes we have to take time to look at our child's life thru their eyes to fully comprehend how important we are to them. And rarely do we appreciate it on the level they do

[Jiu Jitsu Jon]

Provoke your daughter to wrath.

This will ensure she becomes a lifelong Raiders fan.

She will also decide which home you end up in some day.

I have two girls.

My 9 year old is the same way with TS. Looking at buying tickets, they will be a lot more than a game.

That is the price of being a parent. Go with it.

She will love you more. That is what matters.
