Yes

But I'd also allow myself to bust out the 12-gauge whenever he picks her up, and post up on my porch and puff out my chest, staring him down without blinking as he meekly drives away.

because of the implication

Hell no. That's too big a gap. 18 being mature is an outdated idea. Even most 25 year olds are not fully mentally mature.
Shes 18, wth you gnna do, hold her against her will? smh

But yes. If she lives at home, that's my property, and I decide who gets to drive up to my lot. If some 35 year old sleezeball drives up, The landowner can tell him to fuck the hell off.

People with this logic make me laugh.

What, on her 18th birthday, you just stop caring and stop being a parent?

Yall are crazy.

I can't force her to cut off contact (especially if she doesn't live under my roof), but I would not approve.

I'm 35 right now, there's nothing an 18 year old can do for me.

this

I would be creeped the fuck out by it knowing that guy was 17 when she was born and Id probably let it be known that Im not very comfortable with it but ultimately she is an adult so theres nothing I could do

If she is 18 I don't think I can really do anything, I suppose if she's still living at home I can pull the "my house, my rules!" card. Generally speaking I would not be in favor of such a big age difference, particularly when she's 18. It's always weird but when she's 38 and he's 55 it doesn't seem as bad.

You legally can't do anything about "allowing" at that age other than kick them out or disown them which would speak to what your true priorities are.

If you think those are your only options, then you need to think harder.

When your daughter starts coming home at 3 am on acid, youre just gonna shrug and go Welp! Youre 18! Cant do anything!?

What?

Tell me what you're going to do to "allow" a legal adult to not date someone you don't approve of?

Talk to them? Tell them to not be with him? Be a parent?

Unless my daughter is making millions, shes still being claimed on my taxes and under my house at 18. Shes a dependent.

That's not "not allowing", that's voicing disapproval. You still can't force them to break up unless you're saying you're willing to kick out/stop supporting your child because of it.

I mean, I cant make her come home before curfew either, but Im pretty sure youre being too technical.

I dont allow my daughter to be out past midnight doesnt mean I LITERALLY am forcing her to come home with a shock collar or something.

You legally can mandate your underage children to not go out at night. You can't do that with an adult obviously.
You're giving your adult children curfews?

Dog, just because youre 18 doesnt mean a kid wont have rules. What kinda parents did you have?

This. If she still decides that's what she wants I legally couldn't do anything. He isn't allowed in my home though.

You can set them rules but you can't make them follow them. Not once they're 18 and have their own residence
And the tragedy is that they do it for the attention so the more you rebel the tighter she holds on

If she has her own place, thats a different story. But so long as shes in my home, she abides by my rules. If my parenting didnt prevent it already, I will have to intervene.

Its not about behaving or not. Its about safety. Especially since not everyone had phones when I was growing up.

A curfew is not a lot of rules.

Yes. If need be.

Your thinking is outdated. Corporal punishment is child abuse and is steadily becoming illegal.

If when she was 18 my daughter wanted to be a pornstar I would just kind of shrug tbqh. She can date whoever she wants and do whatever she wants at that point.

Now granted if the dude is a goober Ill be up in his business, but at that point Im not her boss anymore.

The people saying that theyll control who she dates as an adult should probably not have kids.
