How do I tell DH that DD19 & BF18 want alone time

Hi DD19 & her BF18 want to start spending a bit more alone time together - basically when round here during the day to spend some time alone upstairs in her bedroom like at her bf house. DH did say before he felt uncomfortable with that but I do want to tell him they want to spend time together in her room as well as downstairs but not sure how to say it to him as he’s overprotective in his ways.

Dad needs to get a grip. Can he not see that he’s being overprotective? He needs to deal with the fact that his little girl has grown up.

Given this is an almost three year old thread I’m sure the dh in question has got used to it by now.

You’d hope so, eagle eyes 😁
