Ok dad finds naked boy in daughters room, dad flips, chases boy with pipe. Boy ends up in hospital dad ends up with assault charges and $10,000 bond! Ok, now I think this is a common way for a farther to react its not right but I think my husband and son would do the same thing if they caught a boy in one of my four daughters room naked! Me I would have to hold them back but if I wasn't there it would be a bad situation. So how would you handle this if it was you and be honest?

as a father, i had chased one of my daughter's ex away from my house with a bat, in front of the cops.. they just looked at him and told him, come back it's on you, better hope we get u before he's does. he looks mad.. if he was in the room, he would had a fast leason in flying. and she would has gotten her butt whip as well.

To be honest. Children should always understand that regardless their age or their rights, it's still their parents home. And if they do want their privacy or want their own way, they should earn their own home and privileges. I say the bond is absurd. Any father would react that way. I say the guy was trespassing because the father didn't know he was there. Unruly kids who demand respect and rights don't have the right to do so. Again, I'm going to say it: "Until kids or children have their own money to finance or run their own homes, they have no right to demand privacy or demand since they are living with their parents and it's their parents' house!"

You know what, it's obvious that the Legal side of that country is built to protect and serve it's own self gain. It doesn't protect and serve it's people. And obviously, morals are not involved in the creation of that legal institution. It's common sense that a father (who loves his daughter and doesn't want to harm her in any way) would act beyond the legalities. They should first experience that before they could compute the bonds. I salute the father for he is well aware of how to discipline his kids. Plus of course, saluting him for not killing the b@st@rd.

I agree I respect my children and give them the privacy that they have EARNED, but I am guick to remind them my house my rules and those rooms of your they are on loan! I also think the bond was excessive the boy was released from the hospital with no perminant damage the farther could have done a lot more if he wanted!

I was under the impression the father first thought this naked boy in the daughter's room was an intruder because the boy did sneak into the home without the father knowing. I don't think the father should be charged. It is his home and if the boy was sneaking in he will know better next time. Just the opinion of a mother of one girl and two sons and the wife of a police officer.

:) Hi Tammy I agree I think the farther probably knew the boy was with his daughter but under the circumstances I think he can say he thought it was a robber and in that case he would be well with in his rights to kick the kids a*s!

In the first place, hitting is wrong here. As parents, we need to be more on top of things especially when this error is committed with an own child here. It is already very embarrassing for everyone here and hitting will not resolve anything here. I can understand the disappointment, anger, embarrassment and all the unpleasantness as a parent, however, we need to remember to be level headed here as your children will be parents one day too. I felt that there is no better parenting education than leading by example here. Nothing is easy but if we do not take the first step here, we will never have the opportunity again.

I agree on a day to day issues and I hate violence in any form! But I think in the heat of the moment sometimes we make bad choices and I Think this happens to be something a hot headed farther might do especially if his level headed wife isn't there to hold him back!

Hey, Rachel what are you doing with a new account? I was wondering where you had been. I probably would have about the same reaction as the dad in your story except I would not actually hit the boy. I would just scare him.

I also found out my unborn daughter has transposition of the greater arteries condition and needs surgery as soon as she is born. ao I really have been depressed and unable to get into anything! But I am now on bed rest so I need something to do and I missed you all! Anyways Yeah I think hitting is extreme but dads are not very reasonable when it comes to there daughters

it is really a tricky problem to handle with. but if this really happened, waht we can do is just to calm down. to have a talk with the daughter and the boy. you know fliping will do no good to this thing. talking is just the best way to handle with this problem.

I agre but are you a female because I think it makes a difference on how you would handle it? Don't you think, we are by far the more rational, and I think we can handle a situation like that much better then a man could.

The article also said that the dad did not even know his daughter had a boyfriend (who had apparently been sneaking into the house for over a year), so I think that was also an important bit of the story. Bad enough to find a naked boyfriend in the room, but to not even know there was a boyfriend in the first place? Yeah, I can see why the Dad flipped out. The article did not say if the daughter was even in the room at the time or if the Dad had ever met the boy before. If the kid was a complete stranger, the Dad may have thought he had broken in and was some sort of perv. (although, he probably figured it out pretty quick). After all, the Dad was the one that called the cops. I kind of hope the court is lenient on the Dad, given the circumstances.

I had never heard of this till we learned first hand about it back when we had foster kids. One of our foster sons came up with an STD...I finally convinced him to tell me where he thought he got it from. He finally admitted that he'd been climbing out his bedroom window in the middle of the night, going down the road to his g/f's house, she would let him in her window where they'd have s*x while her younger sister slept across the hall and her parents slept in the room right under the one they were in!! The parents had no clue it was going on, we had no clue he was sneaking out and it probably would have went on except he got the STD. I called the girls mother who took her to the Dr., then they came over. The mother wanted the foster boy arrested...since both kids were 14 and 15 there wasn't a crime. However, the mother let the foster boy know in no uncertain terms that had her husband found him in the house he would have killed him with no questions asked. The foster boy was moved and the girl was sent to relatives in another state. Also our manager's 17 year old daughter was letting her 18 year old b/f come into their home every night for s*x. While her three brothers slept down the hall and her parents listened to religious tapes in their room, she was having a blast with the b/f. She eventually snuck out and ran off with the b/f and her parents found out later that he'd been coming in their home every night. Since she'd been raised in a very religious home I guess it was really a shock. This seems to be occuring more and more...at least I'm hearing about it more often. I would never had done b/c I feared more of what would happen if I got caught. I will admit that I did run off several times though b/f's weren't the reason I did end up spending time with them as well. Sneaking them into my Mom's house just wasn't anything I would have done. As for sneaking anyone into my Dad's...OMG...he would have killed me and the guy...literally. As for this boy in the article, he should have thought about the consequences of sneaking into someone's home, invited or not. I don't condone violence but I can see the father's outrage at this...it also makes me wonder about the morals that their children have...to not only be having s*x so young but to disrespect their parents home that way. I hope the girl got punished as well since we all know it takes two. [b]**AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~[/b]

Its amazing how young children are when they become sexually active. I have also noticed that it is much higher in relgious families. I think the parents need to communicate with the kids about it and be open, so when the time comes they are not sneaking. You know what they say kids always do the opposite you tell them to so the more you forbid and the less you explain the better chances it will be your window the boy is crawling out of. Personally I have an alarm system and my kids do not know the password :)!

The dad has all the right to act on an intruder and should not have been fined. It is like a thief that you can bash him if caught red handed. In this case the boy is caught and worse naked which had infuriated the father. Lucky he did not die of his injury otherwise it could have been heavier sentence.

I don't believe the boy will enter in to your daughter rooms with yout there permission that the boy cannot enter when all are you in you home. It may happen when you are not in home so i don't believe that. But i the father get angry when he see some boy in his daughters rooms it common any one get angry that may reach to kill that boy. but its not a right way to do that i think the boy was lover of his daughter they she will call him to her room.

I know it's a bad thing to hit the boy with a bar, i would be mad if i saw a naked boy from my daughter's room. First of all i would just grab the boy and sue him of trespassing into my house. I won't hit him, that would make me the bad guy if i hit him.

I saw that story. I agree that most fathers would probably react the same way. The boy was playing with fire everytime he went in his daughter's room. I read they had been dating over a year and the father had no idea. The boy had also been sneaking in and out of the girl's room for about that long. In a way the boy had it coming, but maybe not to be hit with a metal pipe. The boy had to have stiches in his head. The police had no choice but to arrest him. He went a little over board, yet I can understand why at the same time. Yet, I wonder if the father can press charges againest the boy for breaking and entering into his house?

I know my farther in law had a similar situation when my sister in law was a teen and I think he punched the boy! The parents were not mad at my farther in law, they were angry at there son for being disrespectful! But this farther cause the boy to have to go to the hospital so I think that might make is a little worse!

I sure would have done the same, that boy would have been in for it. It seems that it should not have been tried the same way since he was an invader in HIS house. Its not everyday that you see a na_ed dude running through your house. The fact that his daughter is being se__ally active, the parents worse nightmare, its an exposed person in the middle of the night in your house. Yeah we would have done the same thing. And I think that more kids need to heed that warning.

Well if the dad didn't know who it was, etc. and was chasing someone out of his house then he was "defending" his home in my opinion. You would do whatever you needed to do if you thought someone was breaking in or hurting a member of your family. If, however, he was chasing an obvious boyfriend out, he could have done it a little less violently.

were it for me in the same situation then maybe screaming on top of my lungs as i show the boy out the door, but forget me, am imagining my dad in the same predicament considering he has raised six girls, i think he would lock all doors and look for a machete, the situation would be anything but mild, i mean this is a guy i have seen kick out my sister's husband out of our living room but at the time he was just a fiance and then the two moved in together(my sis and her then boyfriend now husband) and the same day he went to the flat they had just moved in and gave my sister 20min to pack everything of hers and get it and herself in the car, and am about a 24year old, then imagine a teen in his house with a boy.........Lol!!!
