writes: My daughter is 18 and a senior in high school. Last year she met a man 5 years older than her and now they are dating. He is also an ex-con (time for drugs)and a tatoo artist. I found out last year that she was writing to him in jail. He is now out and wants to meet me and my husband to explain his situation. He grew up with parents that did drugs and he was locked in closets as a kid. She says he is very smart, a great artist, and they can talk to each other about anything. My husband wont't allow him to come to our house and won't meet him. I don't know what to do.

She is your husbands little girl and he wants more for her that's natural. Just let y our daughter carry on and see how it goes, when your daughter comes home happy that will make your husband see what effect this guy is having on her and he may come around to it. you could say to your husband, in time, why don't we invite him round, at least we can see what the enemy looks like, and quiz him if you must. Better the devil you know kind of thing. Let him know also he could drive her away with all this. What if they have kids, will he not want to see his grandkids. There's always implications later on. He wants to meet his gf's father so that's good, he is facing up to being responsible by that. It would be mainly down to you to be the go between, so try and mellow him.
