Interviewing Your Daughter's Date

Dennis Rainey

As a dad, you want to protect your daughter - especially from boys with super-charged hormones. But the thought of talking to these young men can make a man break into a cold sweat. Or reach for a baseball bat.

There is an alternative, though: a one-to-one conversation with every young man who'd like to take her out.

This is more than an interview, it's an opportunity; a chance to set the bar high, to hold your daughter's date accountable for something precious. It's even a chance to build into a young man, communicating to him - and your daughter - the value of a God-honoring relationship.
