Fancy yourself as an agony aunt? Add your answer to this question! A
reader, anonymous, writes (29 March 2009): This is common, Kara. Dads are just like this. They can't help it. He is overprotective, yes...but he doesn't know how not to be. You can help by being understanding...and let him know that you love him for being concerned about you, but you are a grown-up gal now and can take care of yourself. You will always be is "little girl" no matter how old you get. Don't knock it. There will come a time when you will wish he was still there to love you with no qualifications or conditions. No one else will ever love you so much....
