Hubby tells me he listened to heavy metal and he turned out okay. I just told her that I missed her and couldn't wait until she came home. We will talk calmly when she gets home. I always tell her that she can tell me anything and she does. I am her buddy most of the time, but when she is showing that she needs bounderies, I lay them down and she even thanks me for it. She tells me that she knows I love her because I show that I care. We have a very loving relationship. Okay she can be a brat sometimes but it would there would be something wrong if she weren't. LOL I just can't wait for her to get home!!!! |
i can honestly tell you that the music she heard at warped tour is OK. Most of it is rock music and i believe there were a couple emo bands there too. Nothing really promoting drugs, sex, and killing people, like the before mentioned eminem concert. I have to agree with her that would never let a child go see eminem, heck, i wouldn't even go. However, the bands at warped tour are ok, and its good music. nothing to worry about. its ok to be worried because that was your daughter's first big concert, and she did do something that was a bit reckless (crowd surfing and losing her way). Encourage her to tell you these things. I tell my mother lots of things, even what i did while i was away at college. She wasn't always thrilled to hear it, but she'd rather me tell her then not. besides its fun for me to see the look on her face LOL
so in the words of your daughter, chill out mom (or whatever they say these days LOL)
go easy on her. just remind her that you would prefer that she stay with whom ever she went with instead of going off by herself. there are lots of things that can happen to a young girl on her own, and its best to always stay with your friends when your out. that's a rule i stick by hardcore.
