My daughter and I pulled into the drive way at the same time and she is staring at me like this
I glance over again and see the window inching up
Pure joy right there
She is 16. Must mention that I am aware her car has peeling paint and that fence needs pressure washing because someone will notice, right?
She was severely depressed this time last year. Had a rough few months. It has been amazing watching her get better. She makes me laugh every single day.
**Obligatory FP edit: WOW, thanks Imgurians!
EdgarAllenPoelarBear
She made me laugh too
Paullovespizza

HiImTryMcClure
Hope to have the same relationship with my daughter
coolguyzone420
Glad to hear she's doing better! I've been in her shoes and I bet she feels really good when she makes you laugh!
Yodaloid
@OP, just wanted to make sure you're aware that trying to make other people happy CAN be a sign of depression. Keep an eye out is all. (: 1)
Yodaloid
I'm glad she's improving.
theyaregooddogsbront
Are you aware that the car has peeling paint? And that your fence needs pressure washing?
Felineoverload
So glad she's feeling better! Had a lot of trouble with it at that age myself. You're doing a great job!

That is the appropriate response to seeing a parent when just getting home!

I love the description. You took a picture of a funny moment and realized, "oh shit, people gonna judge every fucking thing."
catsaregroundowls
I was honestly just impressed he could afford his kid a car. And had a kid and a fence. We need to start evaluating our standards here.

She shouldn't worry. The people that matter won't mind and the people who mind don't matter.

I was like wow you are brave letting a 16 year old have a car!
ThisIsBrandNewInformation
It still baffles me that 16 year olds are allowed to drive cars
ColonelCouch
As an English I agree, it seems very foreign to me.

If she's 16 I'm 16

Hi, 16. I'm Dad.
Shltles
Hi pedophile, hi dad. I'm not sure what to do with my life.
brickweed
In my country 16 is legal, so no problem here, just gotta bring her over! :P
CaptainSisqo
She can drive herself.

From a young adult, my mom told me she was proud of me today, It felt amazing, I'm sure y'all are good with your children, keep on being 1
DirtySneakyDoubleCrossingCunnivinMuthafucka
awesome. Being a parent seems hard as fuck but all I've built, all I have, my love for the world, it all comes from them.

Aint nothing wrong with that car. As long as she is happy with it, who cares what anyone else thinks.

My philosophy is this: if it runs, it's good
razmann
that is way nicer than my first car was.
heys5005
Let me tell y'all motherfuckas something. I've owned my car for 15 years, and has literally been through hell and back. I don't have to make
heys5005
A car payment, sure is it old? Yes. Never breaks down ever, runs all the time. Needs new suspension, front end is damaged (just the lights)
heys5005
But damnit it's a goddamn car. It runs. It works. It goes forward. Who cares what it looks like.
heys5005
Oh, and I'm 30.
HawaiianWithExtraPineapples
Pics or it didn't happen.
DukePhelan
Right! She is 16, your car is supposed to be a rolling pos at 16! Long as it is safe who cares.
ZombieRaptor
Every vehicle I've ever had has had peeling paint and a few small things wrong ya know? I love those vehicles, and they still run great :)
EveryonesCousin
95% sure it's the same generation of Accord that I drove as a first car... had been totaled twice, 345k miles when I sold it. Good times.
thecreepingchaosinmymind
My last car was WAY shittier. I miss that car, other people on the road would avoid me. Now I have a nice car any everyone drives TOO CLOSE
JohnnySandwich
And as long as you're paying for insurance, tags, and gas, she'll be happy with anything.
Conflict
(2) an accident and totaling them.
Conflict
*Should be. I knew more than 1 kid in HS was not happy getting the crappy first car they did but proved their parents right by getting into
otebear
I'm not very familiar with car stuff, but isn't peeling paint a hazard to the underlying sheet metal?
OhMeowsers
It can rust which is A, gross looking and B can make painting it in the future harder.
otebear
But aside from aesthetic, rust isn't harmful?
OhMeowsers
It's bad for the metal. Given enough time the rust will chew through the metal weakening it. Short term it's safe. Long term is less clear.
OSCgal
Rust isn't really harmful in itself. It's a symptom of the weakening of exposed metal.
AgentKGB
THIS. It runs, and gets her from A to B.
Fulliron
It looks like it might even have A/C
DirtySneakyDoubleCrossingCunnivinMuthafucka
And it probably does it safely and in a reliable way. Can't complain about that.
pie4sale
That's exactly what I always say
NevermindThatShitHereComesMongo
I've never considered this before today, but... What happens if you pressure wash a human being?
spicebar
Bad things.
handsforcarl
Ooo I can answer this, my boyfriend did it to his toesies. The water cut a messy line in the skin and muscle to the bone.
brumbievan
Look up 'high pressure injection injury.' If you've got a soft stomach maybe don't be eating when you do.
OldAnomaly
Man! I looked it up and I'm sure I want to BBQ tonite any longer...
NevermindThatShitHereComesMongo
I spent most of the day reading up on recent and old serial killers. I think I can take this.
TechnicallyRight
@NevermindThatShitHereComesMongo DID YOU LOOK UP HIGH PRESSURE INJECTION INJURY YET?!?!?!?!
brumbievan
Sorry about the multiple posts haha it said it didn't post it, and then I changed what I wrote and tried again and it didn't work. They lied
TechnicallyRight
