I love the fact that he cares so much. I wish I had a father who cared enough to be so overprotective. If more girls had a father in their lives like him we’d all be better off.

FIRST!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOO lol

big up for the dads sticking around and doing the job!!!

This MF is crazy…

She gonna run off and do thangs behind his back. I understand he is trying to protect her but reducing her importance to monetary value will have her on hollywood Blvd tricking in no time flat.

OMG i would not want to be one of his children…..he sounds scary as hell

im sure he was hitting on people’s daughters back in the day he act like he wasnt young

glad my dad is who he is

I’m proud that he’s doing his job as a father. I just hope that he’s talked to her about boys and told her what there movtives are. That way she’ll know what to look for and not be surprised when the boy show his ass in certain situations!

@Whateva. You are so right. Kids who’s fathers don’t care are usually the one runnin wild and out of control. If she’s smart she’ll realize that he is trying to protect her for a reason. If you have a father who cares and you rebel your the dumbass and you only hurt yourself in the long run.

He is a wonderful daddy! Its beautiful that he cares so much about his children. My father was the same way. When I was her age, if I ever so much as thought about dating he would say, “What? You better date your book!” God I used to hate that. But looking back I truly appreciate him and I know now that he only wanted the best for me. He ensured that I stayed focused, concentrated on my studies and finished school. Which is all she needs to be thinking about at her age!

Karma is a mutherfu**ker!

Terrence Howard has fu**ed over his wife so many times and for so many years, that he is afraid it will come back on his daughter. While it’s good for him to give his daughter advice about guys, he should not do it in a threatning way. Because the more he tries to control her, the more she is going to rebel.

Well you can’t blame him, afterall, it’s a known fact that most black girls are notorius for choosing knuckleheads and tend to grow up and make even worst decisions in their men. He’s just being a true father figure.

Being controlling toward your children is only setting them up for disaster. Instead of learning self-discipline, they only live within your parameters, and when the opportunity presents itself for them to ‘break free’, they’re so eager to get away from you, that they aren’t even thinking about the effect their actions will have on themselves, or even their future…..

Some people ignorantly admire this parenting, “style”, but it is not to be admired. It leads to resentment, and a lack of development of personal restraint. As far as the case above, his child will be “grown” in a few years. Not teaching her how to be an adult, and just trying to keep her “controlled” is only setting her up for failure and future controlling relationships.

Black people routinely raise their children this way, and it sets them up for failure.

She’s 14, she can be out of his control when she’s 18, paying for her own college education and her own apartment. He’s my kind of father.

“Experiencing” normal things as 14 year olds do, I’d like to know what those “things” are. Teenagers have shown that they can’t always be responsible when their backs are pushed up against the wall. She doesn’t need a boyfriend.

Let her do something outside of being love sick, something that can help her become a more mature and responsible adult when she enters college.

I dont believe that she’ll just do it behind his back. When given examples of what happens to fast little girls, she’ll be sure to think twice about whether dating is so important.

I too had a very overprotective mother and my fear of her wrath her made me think thrice before I did something she would have frowned upon.

And thats what it all boils down to, whether she wants to hurt her Dad or make ole boy like her more.

Let him go rub of Shemeka’s azz during the summer. I’d take the trip overseas any time.

THis dude is worse than Joan Crawford. How can he directly tell her all that sh*t (about inheritance). She is not another chicken head girlfriend, she is your child. He sounds like a messed up manipulative asshole. Who thinks they are always in the right. Won’t be shock if they become estranged down the road.

I agree with Keesha and Whatever. The girl (keyword here is GIRL!) is only 14, she is lucky her dad allows her to have a boyfriend. He is suppose to be protective. It’s his CHILD. Maybe if Whitney and Bobby would actually raise Bobby Christina she wouldn’t be wildin’ out.

I have always been trying to ask everthing about him as I could.

People say he is a member of a celeb club

*** We al t hy Ming le.c om ***

I once was there and met my rich boyfriend.

It’s a place to meet the rich and celebrities.

good parenting is one thing, but this is a dictatorship…how hypocritical…and then u dangle an “inheritance” in front of her to make her behave?? WTF??? how is THAT teaching her anything?? she will more than likely run amok after getting it and itll be gone in a month…the best thing he could do was to teach her to be independent, make her OWN money and STILL have values…and as an actor, ur gone most of the time…its only so much governing u can do by phone…he is a basketcase..and ive met him so i know first hand…

“This summer I’ll take her off to another country where her phone won’t work, and he’ll start dating someone else.’”

LMAO, boy do I remember the days of living with my father. I didn’t have to fear loss of inheritance though, he was scary enough.

AMEN@checkit

I am glad he is there for his child, but he is going about it all wrong. You dangle a carrot and say you can have it if you follow my rules, that does not work. Why do you think kids kill their parents. Parents want perfect kids. Parents forget they were once kids. Over protect your child and they will go to the extreme given any opportunity to have a taste of freedom. Parents need to remember if you raised your kids right, when they leave the home for the day or to move out, they will remember what we taught them. You don’t have to yell and argue with a kid to get their attention. Even when you think they are not listening to you, they are. You won’t find that out until they get older of course but what we invest in our children will pay off later.

Go ahead Terrance Howard! He’s 100% right. If she was “fatherless” (ie had an absent dad) she could end up pregnant by some loser. This is how you do things. I’m not playing the sympathy card for loser friends when my kids get older. Let one of kids bring trash into our house, me and my husband are putting it right back out on the curb. I have whole new respect for Terrance Howard. See, you don’t have to worry about Terrance’s daughter ever being at R Kelly’s house.

im so thankful my father understood that i was human, too…and that he didnt forget how hard it is figuring out who u are at that age without the added pressure of a warden…i personally think if u deprive you kid of normal teenage evolving, they will never grow up and indulge in the things u kept from them…children are little people…u gotta keep it real with them, they know bs when they hear it too…

Goodness gracious, 14 is really young. I thought I was the sh*t when I was that age, and now when I look back on it, I was really just a baby. Now, should Terrence continue this for many years afterwards, then yeah, it’s little much.

But he makes sense- would YOU want a Paris Hilton on your hands? She couldn’t behave herself, so she doesn’t get too much of the inheritance. I totally agree with Terrance Howard here.

I don’t know any father that is fond of or likes any boy that his 14 year old daughter is dating. He could have also been joking when these statements were made, but as usual, comedy doesn’t always translate to print.

Oh yes, but bribing isn’t the way to go, let me rephrase my statement.

@lovely & amazing

so only “fatherless” girls have teenage pregnancies/babies???

WTF???

@Blacksmith

100% Cosign.

Way to go Terrence….she is ONLY 14!!!

Kudos to this guy. With 1 in 2 black women with HSV, 1 in 3 Teens with HPV and 70% of new HIV infections being amongst black women, not to mention all of the other BS involved with pseudo love SOMEONE has gotta PROTECT OUR DAUGHTERS!!!!

Always make sure u are cleaning your gun when your daughters boyfriends come over!!!! lmao

Considering the stats. that baeyaki has posted…I can’t say that I blame him. Really, teenagers today are soooooo fast and too damn grown and I know that if I had a teenage daughter in this day and age, I’d be scared sh#tless and would be pulling my ‘fro out. LOL, I have a co-worker with a gorgeous 16 year old and she’s trying hard to balance between not being too strict and giving her some leeway to be a normal teenager, it’s really not easy and I commend those who are walking that journey.

How is he depriving her from a childhood? He simply stated he didn’t like this particular dude – maybe there is a reason for that! He did not say she couldn’t date. He even went on to say that the guy is probably still her boyfriend in some sort of way.

A lot of fathers joke about buying a gun and giving their daughter’s boyfriends the third degree.

We need more parents to be authoritive figures and not friends to their kids…

Its really refreshing to see a father who cares and is willing to protect his child.

he’s on the ball .. when i was 14 i thought my father was just as crazy and strict – and he sent me to boarding school – and yeah, you meet someone else and break up .. it’s all good, she won’t be a statistic [hopefully] and will be too scared to touch a guy [like that] till she’s well out on her own … kudos to him

^^^ I agree! these teens are competing with 21yr olds! It’s that tough love she’ll just have to get used to and smile on 20yrs from now and thank God that she had a parent and a FATHER at that that cared! happy fathers day Terrance, you’re doing a great job! and by him doing this, don’t worry, the knucklehead boys will learn baby girls daddy DON’T PLAY and won’t try anything stupid. Plus, she better not trip, she got a grip of money coming to her if she stops being stupid

good for him . These girls are fast as hell these days, He can turn his back if he wants to, Rkelly will be pissin on her.

he is very popular on a celebs dating site named “mil lionaireloves. com ” , he put many hot pics and videos on it, so many people want to connect him in this way.I also have a try, guess what? He respond me,It’s amazing!

excuse me but SEX & DISEASES have been around FOREVER…teenagers HISTORICALLY have had sex…all u can do is EDUCATE your children about sex & CONDOMS…not keep them locked away in Greece…cuz there’s D*CK in Greece TOO!! people kill me with the prudish attitudes…the same people that allow their kids to watch BET…SMH…

and parent DOES NOT equal dictator…it equals EDUCATOR…as a parent your job is to “teach”…what lesson is to be learned from, bow down and i’ll pay u??? yes in damn-deed!!!!

statiscally, teenage pregnancies happen MORE in fatherless families! I don’t really think he said all that to her daughter but i had a dictator father and i could not go out before I was 19! i had to go back from school directly to home otherwise he would question me about what i did and i cannot lie! I never had sex with a man before i was 20 and i am happy! It does not change anything about the woman i am but i know that i was really a smart girl at school and he always told me that i can become a president or a minister or someone important and that i need to focus! And Here i am in ny for a new career! I love my father but i used to hate him! Plus i was raised in an african style which means that they beat you hard when something is wrong and there is no number to call!

Teach how I will beat dat ass if i catch u having sex at 14

I totally agree with him. Some gilrs are groing up too fast especially when they get involved with older guys. Around my way I see & hear 25 yr old guys trying to pick up 13 & 14 year old girls. Their reasoning is that they want them as early as possible so they are untouched then they can mold them to what they wnt them to be. Last summer two little girls ran to the icecream truck & 2 disgusting guys walked passed sayg “Ummm shorty got a nice tight lil @SS” No my reaction was pure disgust. So again I commend him for protecting her against those guys with pedophile tendencies.

its such a misconception that “fatherless” home have more pregnancies…keep believing the “statistics” THEY feed yall…who the hell thinks independently these days??? is this the old way of thinking obama is talking about??? obviously this archaic way of thinking hasnt worked and DUMBASSSES u can talk to your kids til they blue in the face, but when the hormones kick in, they forget YOU exist…ESPECIALLY without any information….SMMH….

I hope all of these liberal people on this site don’t have kids of their own. People a parent means being the mean, strict, badguy sometimes. If you can’t handle being hated by your kids then your not ready to have them.

I think this is a very good story. For those of us who didn’t have the fathers in the house its nice to see what would happen if you did. A father is supposed to protect his daughter and being a parent is not about being a friend its about having some security and structure in one’s life. She may hate him now but she will love him later. At 14 you don’t know anything about love or boys. But you’re curious as hell.

And for those giving this fool props, because hes AROUND doesnt mean a thing, a person (teen or no teen) will do as they please in life. Certain people can be manipulated by money. Hell we all work for a living. Ever heard of a rebellious teen?

It’s is good to hear he is involved in her life! NOT a lot of fathers ARE! And by the way… this is positive energy! One day she will thank him…for putting his foot down!

I mean, come on now I was still playing wit barbie dolls at dat age!

Sound like a good daddy to me.

LOL, he da daddy from hell

You’re supposed to protect your child by any means necessary. You can talk to your child until you are blue in the face, but some action and authority is absolutely needed. That means if you have to pop them a few good smacks to the back of the head, than do it!

To be protective is wonderful; it’s good to here about a father that shields his children from danger. But to be overtly protective, cutting that child off from society, will send her in a tail spin.

I grew up in a strict home too. The first time my parents let me out of the house to go to a party, I lost my virginity. Kids will find a way to do what they want to do.

I’m so glad I don’t have any children. LOL!!

That’s just mean. I can tell he has his children’s best interest at heart, but it can backfire.

why is this news?

for real.

@ creole diva,

No, statistics do not influence people to think but can be helpful to understand some situations! Actually,the fact that a girl does not have a father image will most likely lead her to look for love with a man! If you need some detais, i suggest you look it up on psychological books. Its funny how you talk about OBAMA. I guess you don’t believe the statistics about him, his victories and failures too??!

This explains a lot about Terrance and the women he dates/marries. But I do have to give him props on the baby wipes comment. Ladies you should try it.

He is a great black man. Love him very much. Lots of my online friends on +^^&()((+ I n t i m a t e m i n g l e. c o m +()_++++love him too. You can share your ideas with them if you want. It is a servious interracial dating service.

___________________________________________________

i rest my case

RETHINKING THIS SITUATION, HE CAN’T PUT THE LEASH ON TO TIGHT BECAUSE ONE DAY SHE IS GOING TO BE GROWN AND ON HER OWN. AND EVERY LIL HUSTLA OUT THERE WITH SOME PLAYA SENSE IS GOING TO SMELL A GIRL WITH NO EXPERIENCE. THEY ARE GOING TO TELL HER WHAT SHE WANTS TO HEAR AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HER. “RATHER BE A YOUNG FOOL THAN A OLD FOOL.” LOL

@valenne

1. WHY are u addressing me?? i thought we discussed this yesterday??

2. B*tch if u raise your damn chirren reading psychological books, u headed for disaster

3. Not totally controlling your child does not mean that u care any less and that u dont have control over the situation…cuz we all know, that the most repressed people turn out to be the wildest…its the old adage, u want what u cant have…

4. AND DUMBASS, Obamas victories are not STATISTICS they are ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND FACTS

5. Lastly, please dont EVER address me again, i have determined that u r an idiot and not worthy of debate

That should have been “hear”, trying to soumd to prophetic. LOL

I dont blame him. Ima always tell my daughter dont have sex with him until he marries you. If a man really cares about you he would wait. If he dont “f” em.

At LAST, a black man being a REAL father!

“sound” that is, trying to work and blog at the same time is not the business. LOL

@GO GETTA

That “your first ish” is overated. Half the women I know first wasnt ish anyway. Terrence doing the right thing. That little girl is observing on how a real man is suppose to raise his daughter. Her choices in men will reflect how her daddy raised her.

At 14, she doesn’t NEED to be “dating” ANYway. She needs to be cramming education into that empty head of hers. KEEP THE REINS TIGHT UNTIL GRADUATION DAY, TERRENCE!!

Terrence dont want his daughter to be the jumpoff….i know i wouldn’t!!!

I hope her claim of loving him doesn’t mean she already had sex with him

Keep it up T…..think about the Spears girls!!! lmao

He don’t need to let her experience anything. Because so many people now a days don’t have fathers in their lives they don’t understand this is what a father does. Especially with their daughters. Fourteen is too young to be so wrapped up in a guy. So you go Terrence Howard keep up the good work.

I am happy that he is on it like that. I think if more fathers were on it like their with their children we would have so many teenage slores running around having babies and/ or not taking care of babies. We all need parents that care and that will put that old-fashioned foot in the @$$. Go Terrance.

oh and this was for you creole diva!

“No, no, no, not my little girl, she WILL NOT be a jumpoff”!!!

Terrence

I am a prime victim of the girl with the over-protective dad, and I’ll tell you right now, I’ve snuck my little phone calls to boys in when I got home from school (and hung up on them when my mom came home early), had two boyfriends behind their back, and changed into different clothes when I got to school LOL.

BUT….

They showed me a lot of love, so I didn’t have to go running wild with resentment for them. I didn’t lose my virginity until after I graduated highschool(ironically to the man who later became my hubby), I’m close to graduating from college, and I absolutely LOVE THEM. I absolutely hated them at the time I couldn’t go anywhere, but I’m so happy with the way I turned out that I’m all for them disciplining my younger sister.

I DON’T BLAME HIS AZZ! WHEWWWWWWWW WHEWWWWWW! That’s what I’m talking bout. A REEL FATHER FOR ONCE!

http://www.jhazzaisworld.wordpress.com

Also, I bet a guy would think twice before trying to screw over his daughters. And I bet his daughters won’t come home with some crazy ass thugged out n****a thinking he’s running something. You can BET THAT! We need more fathers out here threatening to kill these tackhead little boys.

i agree go getta!!!

he’s right i’ll be that kind of father

Okay so his methods are a little questionable. But I feel him. There are a lot of other “normal” things she could be experiencing. We dont know the full story.. maybe those two where getting a little “too” friendly or on the verge of it. Just imagine how low the teen pregnancy rate would drop if more parents did their jobs.

@HYPNOTIQ

TRUE DAT!!!

He need to put her up on game and that is what he is doing…..but i do know that he not going send her over seas with no phone so that he cant even contact her himself….that would defeat his purpose….if u dont put these kids up especially girls up on game in these days and times they will get got with the quickness!!!

I dont feel like reading all this I just want to know if anyone spoke on that Broach he is rockin’?

what!!!!!!!!!!!!?? i AGREE WITH TAKING THE CHILD AWAY FOR THE SUMMER, LET HER EXPERIENCE WORLD CULTURE, AND THAT WILL DO THE TRICK TO GET RID OF OLE’ BOY BUT USING INHERITANCE AS A REASON…SHE WILL SOON SAY “F&*^ U AND YOUR MONEY!”

His approach usually ends up with the daughter being ….let’s say risque. I’ve seen it a million times; the preachers daughter is the biggest freak. They end up in the world not knowing about anything getting used and turned out because of their naivete. You want to be firm as a parent but you don’t want provide too much of a strict environment. Maybe not at 14 but she will want to experience the world.

lol@ Nikki that Broach.. its kinda fly in a black willy wonka tight of way

type

Tell your daughter how the Game goes brother and pray for her. I have a teen my self…”it’s hard but it’s fair”. But my daughter could date at that age anyway and she sixteen just starting to date “Fu@K!” …but anyway if I threaten her with the will she would laugh, she knows she on 401k money-build but she ain’t trippin -despite how airheaded I was in my youth my baby is a little more deep and smarter for some reason she likes reading.

Finally a hollywood father that actual cares about his children. That’s cool, more fathers should be like him

I imagine his daughter is attractive. Does he really think that a young or older man won’t find his daughter desireable in an another country? His best resource is to teach her the game play by play and help her understand why the boy is not right for her. I wish someone had broke the game down for me.

He’s sexi to me, he could be my daddy anytime though…

That’s ridiculous…

Someone needs to whisper in her ear…..emancipated teenager…this is American, she can make it without his inheritance.

I don’t have a problem with him being a strong dad but to threaten to kill her boyfriend is not cool at all! He could get in trouble for that shyt for real & the money thing is wrong as well to try & hold it over her head like that. Remember she’s only 14 years old! Dayum!!!

Also, I find it ironic how we “protect” our daughters but yet we ASSume our sons are going to be wild animals & in turn don’t try & raise them properly & then wonder why alot of men turn out the way they do!

Hope he was joking… its not that serious if the boy wasnt whipping her a** or nothing dang. I mean, you’re going to DISOWN her??? He had to be joking and yall taking it out of context

woooooooooooooooooooow…

Cool dad… he actually cares. More power to him!

he’s not being overprotective…he’s being a damn DADDY! Big Ups to Mr. Howard for making sure his daughter have respect for themselves and don’t fall into the Hollyweird trap.

dang, i can understand him not wanting his daughter to be with her bf (whatever the reason may be) but threatening to cut her off of the inheritance? thats a little much!!

i just wish i knew what he didnt like about the boy to threaten to kill him!

@valenne

i would have 2 be as dumb as YOU to not know that was for me, no disclaimer needed

AND im SO proud of YOU!!! u “cussed”!!! Im turnin YOU out!!!

no go away AGAIN you annoying little illiterate gnat, i dont wanna have 2 use the fly-swatter

**now (this weed HELLA good!)

Why is it a bad thing?

She should not have a bf, or date at 14 yrs old crushes yes but he is doing the right thing.

ps…your eye peeping outta that box gives me the creeps…

oooh honey chile!!! u r NO Akeelah!!! scrowl?? your dumbass just invented a new word…its SCROLL, u pseudo-freudian!!!

lmao @ Go Getta!!!

This dude is found at the interracial club +(((((((((+ I n t i m a t e m i n g l e. c o m +))))+a moment ago. He has created a personal profile to seek young and hot girls out of his race there.

Every little girl needs a Daddy like Terrance.

UH OH – the most sheltered kids turn out the WILDEST

TRUST ME, I KNOW!!!

He better give that girl some dayum freedom

she’s not gonna care about that inheritance….

they’ll give her a reality show and she’ll have that dough back in no time

ask lil miss hilton!

I’m still trying to figure out what the boy did? Its good to be protective but sometimes you gotta let them live alittle. Thats coming from somebody who don’t have any kids.

@Valenne

Unfortunately in America too many black people have fallen for bleeding heart white liberal crap and raise their kids on all the liberal white hypocrisy. Oh, I’m my child’s friend. Oh, my child don’t need a father. Yes, I’m saying it, black girls from fatherless homes are more likely to be premiscuious and teen mother. In America, teen girls have their teen boyfriends living with them IN THEIR PARENT’S HOUSE! Valenne, your father, my dad, Terrance Howard are 100% absolutley right! So sad in our society that we have become so accepting of fathers being passive and dismissive that we hate on present and protective parents. Black girls between the ages 15-25 are getting HIV at the highest rate. And parents should be monitoring their daughters and sons dating choices and habits. Like I said, you won’t find Terrance’s daughter at R Kelly’s house. You’ll find her traveling around the world with dad and attending t he best schools and not getting messed up by some loser her dad sees right through. Terrance wants his teen daughter to have a sweet sixteen party not a baby shower. Like I said, Go ahead with bad self Terrance!

Mr. & Mrs. Obama 2008-16!

Yes We Can Raise Black Girls Right!

since everybody has all the solutions to parenting, why do we even HAVE problem kids?????

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I also agree with his parenting skills because if you don’t care about your own kids nobody will. It’s a good thing when he can keep working and parenting while some stars get so big they hire someone else to do their job. And he sees the girls gone wild today and he do not want that for her. All men should take a page out of his book and use it with their girls. My dad ran a real tight ship with 5 girls too and it didn’t hurt. I’m glad I can live the way way I’ve learn.

i love the fact that he’s protective over his daughter, 14 is still kind of young to be dating, so kudos to him. but i still believe that if u forbid your kids from doing something, they are going to want to do it 10XS more. and no doubt in the future, if he keeps his leash TOO tight, she’s going to resent him and end up wildin out. ive seen it happen too many times. but still, kudos to terrence for being a man and a father. I LOVES IT!

I guess he’s afraid she’ll end up with somebody just like his dumb ass.

@ Kia….u are not even old enough to drink yet…..how is your father wrong…..technically you are a young adult not even a full adult…..when u past 2,1, u will have every reason to be upset…but as of right now u are still a kid, old enough to vote but not old enough to chill in a bar!!!!! In ten years are going to be thankful your father held u down, trust me!!!!

@ KIA

LOL! Well that explains your father’s short leash. I’d keep yo’ ass on lock down too. No parent wants to be a grandparent before their time.

@kia

keep ya head up girl cuz deez assholes don’t understand ya situation

clap clap

im glad that he is lyk dat with his daughter

i just hope he isnt sexist and has that tight rein on his sons too

“eat the cake anna mae”

what a joke! someone just PSed his pictures to hot ones and then uploaded to the famous dating site~++)((((~ I n t i m a t e m i n g l e . c o m ~))))~, a site for interracial romance, interracial relationship… so he is said to seek an extramarital relationship with a white model there! lol

Is he mad because his daughter’s dating a BLACK dude?

I know how he feels about the black peeps. Just curious.

And, if I was a parent of the boy, I would sue him for threatening to murder my 14 year old CHILD.

Obviously those you who state that he should let her ewxperience normal things and be free either don’t have daughters, never had daughters, and hopefully never will have daughters. At 14yrs old parents must have some decision making authority as a 14 yr old mind is not ready for the things that are out there; R Kelly comes to mind and the TV show how to catch a predator. I raised a beautiful daughter who was not allowed to date until she was 15 and 16 even then it had to be in a group setting, she was allowed to go to parties and out with her girl friends. But the one thing that allowed her these freedoms was her school grades, if they suffered she suffered and from 5th grade through her senior year of HS she maintained an “A” average i.e. never saw a “B or below” and she took all Advancec classes throughout HS. If you set standards and enforce them consistently/fairly, give them freedoms a little at a time as their mind matures and talk with them about life sex openly all will be good. But to leav them their own vices is setting them uop for failure in life and allowing a lazy parent to live their own life. Children are children and should be treated as such until thye show they can take own certain responsibilities. Parenting is a lifelong task it does not end at 18.

@persona where does it state the race of the boy?you must be a stinkin when wet honkee.

Get @ me Khia u 2 Shachia….lets have a threesome!!!

It don’t matter what he do, teens are crafty and if it’s that deep she gone find away to be with him. He need to worry about educating her and being in her corner. Instead of acting like a warden. It’s only gone push her away from him. Low key the boy probably black and Terrance color struck ass ain’t having it.

ok to: I never threatened my daughter when it came to discussing the birds and the bees; that made no sense to make sex the forbidden fruit. As I stated as the the mind matures parents can give new freedoms/responsibilities.

Something your parents taught you took hold as you finished school and moved on with the added responsibility of parenthood. Good luck in raising your child…

He’s all right, Every father should put an eye in their children early love stories, especially young girls who 9 times outta 10 are lookin for some older guys who 9 times outta 10 are just waitin for some quick sex (I’m a Man, I Know what it is!)

Big Up to Real Daddies around the world…

I don’t blame him one bit. She is 14, not 16 & shouldn’t have a boyfriend at that age. I would do what I have to do to save my children too. You have to parent your kids not be their friend. You cross the line when you do. They will have no respect for you. Terrance, you are doing the right thing. Keep the good parenting skills going. Maybe some of these deadbeat daddies will get on the band wagon. It takes more than one parent to raise a child.

Kudos to Terrance, wish i had a father like that, wouldv’e made my life a lot easier.

@kia ur father sounds crazy, but i don’t think terrance is that extreme with his daughter, sounds like he doesn’t like this particular boyfriend.

i feel terrance howard on alot of levels because so many young girls are growing up fast and so many young girls are catching diseases and they dont have much guidance but at the same time thats how you create a hoe no disrespect at all but when you do things like that they have to be to a certain extent or they will rebell, and boy can a girl rebell! i feel a parent has the right to be in their childs relationships even though she shouldnt be allowed to date at 14 he is in her life and at leats trying to save her innocense and you dont find too many men doing that exspecially those who have a career koodoos t. howard regardless of what anyone says

He is a great black man ! I like him very much ! Many prople saw his video and blog at uniform dating club “uniformedcupid.com” . It is the very place for Dating someone who really undertand the words “commitment” !
