Each time my dad is in my room and I want to dress up,I go into my bathroom to do that and when I am done and out,he usually burst into laughter or attimes just smile.
I am too shy to dress up before him.So I wanna ask: Is it right to dress up infront of your dad? And fathers in the house,does your teenage daughters do thesame? And how do you feel when they do that.

Embarrased

I hate teenage girls...

Are you for real?

Why... it's normal for you to have your privacy.
I can relate with this topic because I have nieces who are only ages 12 and 8 and they both dress up in private, which is actually good for them.

So please, any father would feel it's normal so no big deal.

Are you guys living in a room apartment? If yes, tell the nigga to excuse you.

Is this even a question? excuse ursef joor

Once my daughter clocks 4, I don't think I should be around her when she is getting dressed up and she should be told why. At that age, they are very impressionable and whatever they learn from then on will play a major role in their growing up.
So, OP, don't let your Dad's disposition towards you wanting privacy bother you at all, there is no question of you wanting (in fact, you should be demanding for your) privacy

Father loun loun. Please o! Even my brother use his reasoning to excuse me and my little sister of 12.

The world is something else these days. Caution is key.

Oh yes, I watch my get dressed in my presence. No big deal

Any father with a teenage daughter should excuse her whenever she needs to dress up and should knock before entering her room.It's the right thing to do.
I know a family where it's no big deal sha and there's no perversion.

Really? 4-freaking-years?? So you cannot dress your 5 year old daughter neither will you be in her room when she's being dressed?

Is your wife not also allowed to dress your 5 year old son or see him being dressed up?

Perverts everywhere! Mstchewww!

To each man his own.
Abeg, explain the co-relation between me deciding to give my child privacy and it being basis for being a pervert.
If you are not comfy with the idea, well thats what rocks your boat. That will still not stop me from raising "my" child the way I deem it fit.

What would make a man feel uncomfortable when his 5 year old daughter is being dressed up in his presence?

If that is not perversion, tell me what is.

Madam why the need for calling names I see nothing wrong with what he said.

Unfortunately, i see everything wrong with it.

A man should not feel that uncomfortable seeing his lil daughter's body. 5years? pppfffttt.

Maybe it's just me though, but it smacks of. . .

Will let it rest sha.

Please continue running, if possible start excusing him. If it's ur brother, it's a bit different.

Fathers are becoming unpredictable dis days and u Wnt want a experience to be wise.

4 years children don dey grow breast dis days oh. Lol

Na end time naw. Lmao

That's a tricky issue dear.

It depends on how you and your dad relates through out your growing up,
Has your dad ever bath you, clothed you or rather if not been around you when your mother does your toiletries for you?
If not then I understand the feeling of awkwardness between you and your dad but if so, then babe I think you're going about it wrong. Simply because you've started growing breast doesn't mean you should excuse yourself of that parent/bond freedom. It can only feel weird when you're married or so.

And am speaking based on experience between me and my male siblings , dad never existed and don't ask me why.

Nice responses

Have you ever taught of it as trying to teach your child the right thing to do in the presence of some from the opposite sex (especially adults) from a tender age?
Just get the pervertive thought out of you mind and see it from another angle.

Can a 4yr old girl bath herself properly?

So since she cant dress up in front of you, that means You cant even bath a 4yr old

I think a man who thinks he cant bath a 4yr old needs serious help

Is there a reason I have a wife?
Even if my wife is not home to do that, at least, I can afford a house help.
You really need to get you mind out of the gutters.
If I want to run my home that way, I feel you should mind your own and do your thing your way (that is of you are married)
What I have expressed is my opinion, you should do same and mind your corner.

And when the wife is not around on business travel she takes the girl away with her? Or the wife is not around and the 4yr old soils herself with food or mud while playing then The 4yr old doesnt bath until she comes back?

You would rather trust a househelp than take care of your own children. I would expect that your wife nor househelp should touch or bath a 4yr old boy too when you are not around

Its a perverted opinion that a 4yr old cant be taken care of by the father or mother, maybe you shouldnt even handle the child when she is a week old

Do you even have kids, Not to talk of a daughter?

This is not about minding business, your post is just creepy to start with. At first I thought you're being naive but now gotta ask if you even know what it feels like as a DADDY to have a daughter?

We won't mind our business, that's exactly what is depreciating NIGERIA.

@Topic, that awkward moment you run into daddy's bedroom with only panties & bra on to steal a dash of his cologne (with the aim that he's still at work) , only to find him in bed reading punch and watching CNN news mogbe! Temibami (he just shook his head)

Daughters will forever be Daddy's princess/little girl.

Anyway Mr. Shevon with all due respect, please change your mindset. I'm assuming you're new to parenthood (if you're parent). There's nothing immoral about a dad caring for his daughter, Infact dads share closer bonds with daughters than moms. Please don't deprive that babygirl her father's unconditional love because of Society's perception of you.

Yes some people are sick in the head to even think a dad will defile his daughter due to closeness. Says a lot about their childhood structure.

Thank you and God bless.

OP ur dad is not serious, once ur child of the opposite sex reaches puberty. They deserve some privacy
