Hi guys. I never post but I wanted to ask opinions of strangers because sometimes that’s the most honest opinions you get.
My daughter is 15 and works at a prom dress store . The owner is a women about in her 40s her bf is about the same age almost 50.
He comes in from time to time brings the girls food and hands out paychecks on Fridays . There’s couple girls that work there and ages range from 15- 17. Occasionally there has been older girls that work there when they get back from college .
Anyway I tell my daughter she’s young but needs to be aware she isn’t as old as the college girls and the guys who rent the tuxedos in the back who are in their early 20s.
The girls always flirting with them my daughter says .
Anyway my husband hates her working there he just feels she’s to young to be around these older men.
Well we went away this past weekend and I saw my daughters phone had text from Bobby “ok you have a great weekend baby cakes”
So I scroll up and he had my daughter in a group chat with another girl telling them they have paychecks ready. He also sent xoxox. Then the last text was to my daughter when he called her baby cakes.
So I said first off a grown man shouldn’t even be personally texting underage girls #1 and #2 baby cakes i felt was inappropriate. My husband is livid .
My daughter went into work telling the owner her parents feel it’s best if the store owner text my daughter if needed not her boyfriend .
Well the owner started yelling at my daughter telling her she’s wrong how dare she and blah blah my bf isn’t a monster .
I’m so mad about this even more now because I feel like if they aren’t guilty of anything then she should have been sympathetic to my daughter like “ I’m so sorry that made u uncomfortable it won’t happen again” instead turned it around on my 15 yr old.
So now my daughter has ordered her sweet 16 dress through there and is afraid they won’t notify her when the dress comes in.
Please tell me am I over reacting or on point?
I’m always teaching my daughter not to trust men she doesn’t really know .
The store owner is a little nutty and loves drama . She doesn’t have kids of her own she has no clue .
Help I need opinions !
