Guest BigUglyDad Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 It seams like an odd request, but my 17 year old daughter has given up on finding a LDS boy friend. In a discussion with her she said it couldn’t be done. But enough babbling from a protective father. What can I do and <span style=\'font-family:Optima\'>who can Help find good young men that can prove that the priesthood of God tempers "boys" into men.</span>
AFDaw Posted March 5, 2004 Report Posted March 5, 2004 Tell her to convert someone :) That's what I did Seriously though, when she turns 18 shouldn't she be old enough for the YSA? I was 18 and there were plenty of YSA men in the program who were age appropriate for me.
Guest BigUglyDad Posted March 5, 2004 Report Posted March 5, 2004 This is the only picture she is smiling in.
Jenda Posted March 5, 2004 Report Posted March 5, 2004 I'd put her in the closet and lock the door till she is 21. That is what I am going to do with my daughter soon. She is too pretty to be let loose on the streets. She needs to be protected.
DisRuptive1 Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 YSA should work. Lots of young RM's there that will act appropriately, and stupidly, around her.
Guest BigUglyDad Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 YSA ??? what is that ? your right it would be nice to lock her away... but not too practical... she wants to roam she just needs direction.... (she likes DisRuptive1's signature)
Guest lt Posted March 7, 2004 Report Posted March 7, 2004 There are also on campus Lds communities, and gatherings.I would ask your local college. every campus my hubby and I have been has had one. just a thought.
DisRuptive1 Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 If she likes my sig, she'll really like my pic. I'm a hot fox!!! Does she live close to anaheim?
Guest Starsky Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 Institute should be available in your college...also...there should be some kind of student ward available....within your stake....ask your stake president what is available for his youth....and if there is nothing bite his rearend until he does something... Our Bishop organized a youth group himself when there wasn't anything going on....so I know it can be a leader who can make some changes if changes have to be made. Does she have a job? Do you have relatives who live in Utah? Send her there for a couple of months. I don't know where you live or I would give you more...
nickleboyblue Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Depending on where you're from, there honestly may not be all that many LDS people close enough to her age who could be attractive to her in any way... you can't expect mere goodness to be enough, and despite what many say, physical attraction has to be there to spark things, and in my experience, that is a very rare thing to come across a good person who also attracts you. Let her be her own person, but make sure you do all you can to teach her what is right through daily family prayer and scripture study, etc. Might seem over simplified, but going to church, reading scriptures, having family home evening, having family prayer, and basically living the gospel, coupled with bearing your testimony in a casual way to her, will probably be the best thing you can do for her at the moment.
bmy- Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 How about.. letting her date quality boys.. instead of just mormon boys?
Mahone Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 How about not bringing up five year old posts?
