To say it’s stressful havivg a beautiful daughter?

That’s it really. The attention they will draw and the fact they’ll have to grow up faster than they perhaps would. Men (including those that think that they have a right to chat up 16 year olds) will try it on and it makes me feel sick. DD is only 16 (though will be 17 in 4 months) but i already see men in their late 20’s:30’s leering at her and I get so mad and want to shout ‘she’s a child you creepy pervs’ but I don’t think anyone would care or react.

She isn’t a young child but she equally isn’t an adult yet and all the weirdos and creeps about make me feel so uneasy.

How do handle it if you’re in the same situation? I want to punch them all 😂

Can you not give her tips from your teenage years, given the curse of such great beauty must run in the family!

Yuck

I’m not particularly attractive but got beeped at, chatted up, leered at from men as soon as I hit 13. This isn’t a beauty thing, it’s a man thing.

God that’s absolutely gross what he done to you 🤮 Well done to your Mam for standing up against that vulgar man!

Yes it is, they need to be glared at. Instilling confidence in young girls is very important so they know how to handle unwanted attention easily.

Man in his 30s I suspect was leering at my 15 year, I mean how dare she wear a crop top and have her long hair flowing.

i moved across her so he had to stare at my fat arse

Good move but I'd rather show my irate, bulldog in disgust expression face, full on 😊

Dirty, leering bastards.
Sorry, just needed to get that off my chest.....

It's natural for a person to look at a striking member of the opposite sex, we are programmed for this. Women look at good looking men, too. Not every man is a pervert. She will have to deal with this when you are not around to "protect' her. She will learn. We were all young and beautiful to someone at sometime - otherwise where did our husbands and children come from? Most of us have dealt successfully with the odd pest or perv who have crossed our paths. You might as well accept it, she's growing up.

All you can do is advise her. You can't keep all the pervs at bay as she has to go out, but she'll soon see through them. Alternatively if you tell these men her age and they continue call them peados, they eont like it plus it will hit home a bit more.

Hopefully she'll be okay. 💐 I'm sorry, that must be so difficult and worrying for you. 🥺

Just ignore the cat poster clearly on a wind up or just deranged.

@deusexmacintosh I agree. Part of the reason I liked the Krav Maga instructor was that she was blunt with the girls that even a healthy strong trained female is massively outgunned physically by a man. That’s why she concentrated on not getting into the vulnerable situation in the first place, aleats being aware of what is going on around you and tips for getting away.

Yes females are more vulnerable even when healthy bodied, let alone the more vulnerable. We can only do what we can to protect our girls.

I don’t know why the police and prosecuting authorities in the UK seem so prejudiced in favour of perpetrators over victims. I remember reading the news reports a few years back in incredulity when a female celebrity alone at home at night with her young kid was warned by police that she’d behaved potentially criminally when she told them that she’d grabbed her kitchen knife on seeing masked intruders outside her kitchen window!! What kind of ‘proportionate’ self defence did they imagine a slight young women could employ?

I am very pleased that my 16 year old is as strong as an ox from lifting huge weights at the gym, with a death stare and quick tongue to match. God help anyone who tries anything on with her.

My son spent his senior year growing an ulcer because of the boys who were after his freshman sister.

It happens to women of all levels of attractiveness. Most men are just pervs.

Grimly it happens most to very young women 13-21.
