It's not her you have worry about and you know it! Just put the shotgun on the mantle and the sign on the lawn "She better come back the way she left!!" Congrats and good luck "Dad".
LOL at Dad's worrying about their daughters. If you raised them right and continue to re-educate them along the way, you have done your part.
What they do (like my sister being a drug addicted whore from 16-25) is programmed into their brain and you cant do squat to change it.
If you are really worried about the 'boys' screwing them, just remember its normal and you did the same damn thing when you were that age.

I wish that were the case. Unfortunately I know of several women who have been beat up by their "boy friends" and "husbands".
Cathy
One summer day my younger sister Lynne said Billy you should ask out Cathy. This guy named Perky broke her jaw and Gray asked her but got in a fight with Perky. Now Perky has a bodyguard and no one will ask her out.
Cathy grew up around the corner. I asked her out to see a band. We pull up to the bar where the band is and there is Perky’s lime green Porsche. Cathy points out his car. I say look we will go in and if you feel uncomfortable we will leave. Cathy hesitates and then says ok.
We get a spot right in front and after a few minutes this guy walks up and says that guy over bought me a drink to tell you he wants to talk to you. Cathy says tell him no. The guy comes back and says but he really wants to talk to you. Cathy again says no and I tell Cathy it’s time to leave. We get up to head up and Perky come over. I figure I will give him a minute to talk. Cathy is uncomfortable and I ask her if she is ready to leave and she says yes.
Perky then grabs her arm and Cathy tries to free herself. I tell him let go of her arm. Perky then begins to twist her arm and I see pain in her face. I yell let go and Perky does not. I pick him up off the ground by his lapels and carry him 20’ placing him on top the pinball machine. I turn my head and yell to Cathy to leave. I see her back and realize she is vulnerable.
I let go of Perky to cover Cathy’s back and feel something wet on the back of my head. Perky had hit me over the head with a tequila sunrise. I turn towards Perky he puts his hands around my neck and I push him to the ground. I am ready for him to get up so I can neutralize him. An off duty police officer pushed a badge in my face. I say you got the wrong guy he broker her jaw. The police officer ask Cathy and she says yes and then Cathy screams you are bleeding. The police officer ask if you want to press charges and I say yes. I tell him I am going to Baptists Emergency.
At Baptists Emergency I get 5 stitches in my head. The police officers come and take a report.
My father calls Perky father who is an attorney and advises he has disowned his son. Perky’s attorney calls my father. My father demands payment for the stitches and sweater he tore. The attorney says Perky will pay that and will also pay more to completely drop the matter. I say no!
Cathy’s family had previously gotten a Peace Bond on Perky but he ignored it. He stalked Cathy and would knock on her bedroom window at night. An arrest warrant was issued for Perky for assaulting me. My friends kept an eye out for that lime green Porsche and one day spotted him, calling it into the Police.
The night before the trial Cathy calls me. She says Billy I cannot testify. I say why. She says Perky has threatened her if she testified. I said Cathy remember this no matter what you do he will always be able to threaten you. Tomorrow is a chance for you to stand up to him in court. What ever your decision I will understand. I hope to see you tomorrow.
In court Cathy showed up with her father and testified against Perky. Perky was convicted and never contacted Cathy again.
^^^what you described, despite being horrible, is the risk you take of existing.
