... and Other Tips From A Beleaguered Father (Not That Any Of Them Work)
Fathers may suspect it’s not easy for their daughters to become women, but those same daughters have no idea how hard it is for fathers to stand by and watch. According to W. Bruce Cameron, “Having a child mutate into a teenager is a bit like being an airline passenger who must suddenly take over for a stricken pilot and land the plane. And in this case, the passengers are all yelling, ‘I hate you! I hate you!’ and slamming the door to the cockpit.”
Cameron has two daughters, so he is doubly aware that raising teenage girls is well, impossible. He’s been through braces (the most expensive metal on earth), kissing (do they have to use their lips?), teen “logic” (“I asked if I could go out with Lindsey and you said no, so I went out with Courtney”), and, of course, dating, which leads to the 8 Simple Rules. (Rule #1: if you pull into my driveway and honk, you’d better be delivering a package, because you’re sure as heck not picking anything up.)
If your little girl has moved out and a teenager has taken her place, this book will help you do something you probably thought was not possible in your situation: laugh.
