    It said "My professor just posted one of my grades, daddy! I made an A in Geography!!!"

    I don't know how to respond. It's geography. An A is a 90. I get 90% of the geography questions right at bar trivia every Tuesday and I didn't spend countless hours and thousands of my dad's money to learn that crap. I hate being patronizing but I kind of want to show appreciation too. How would you respond?

    Wait of other grades. If geography is the only good one, call her a dumbmoon. If it's the first of several a's, then congragulate her.

    p.s. its kinda hard to make higher than an A

    Your = you are. Stupid. You're is possessive hence the apostrophe. Duh. Ro' Tide!

    This is the way I'm going about it. If she makes an A in calculus and physics, she's doing OK. I just didn't understand the excitement over an A in some crypt course.

    I would congratulate her.

    There are easy classes like that in college no matter where you go and sometimes it is just nice getting an A to feel good no matter what the class is.

    ^ This.

    Keep Calm & Stoops On..

    You say congratulations and move on? Jesus you actually took this question to the 247 boards?

    I guess you missed the part where I said I hate being patronizing. I've tried her whole life not to be that kind of parent.

    By the way, geography in college has nothing to do with where cities/states/countries are.

    Correct! I'm thinking not many of the people in this thread took Geography classes. I minored in Geography. Take a GIS class and let me know how easy it is.

  • This guy is pretty out of touch. Listen, from someone who is in college, consider yourself lucky your daughter is actually studying and giving a shit about her classes. Would you rather be the dad with the daughter whose "only" getting an A in her meaningless bullshit class or the dad whose daughter is doing naked keg stands and getting eifle towered down at the baseball house? But then again, maybe you're both. I wouldn't know for sure until you removed the stick from your ass and showed us some pics.

    When your daughter is being discharged from her third stint in rehab after resorting to a life of drug use to ease the hurt of getting no love from daddy, and you wanna blame someone, look in the freakin mirror. This ain't 1954 bro, that Ward Cleaver approach to parenting isn't the way to go.

    Let's start from the top:
    1. Since you are posting this topic on a message board, you might not be the sharpest knife in the drawer. As such, you should be proud that your daughter overcame half of her obviously slack gene pool to even get in college. The fact of this matter and that she got an A should please you to no end (i.e. there is hope for HER). I hope she continues to follow in her mom's footsteps.
    2. As this is your daughter and you are perplexed by how you should respond, it is a safe assumption that Father's Day is that one day per year where you see your daughter and she may actually say she loves you. Congrats on your big day. You should always share in your daughter's successes (regardless of how big or small) and be there for her during failures, but--again--if you are having to come to a message board for fathering advice, I'd say the ship has already left the harbor for you.
    3. It is my sincere hope that you are a better "uncle" than you are a father.
    4. "Thousand's of my dad's money": A.) This is a tax credit for you. B.) If you feel this were not an investment in your daughter, then you are just as ignorant (as you feel she is for her "A" in geography) for letting her attend a school with no possibility of getting a return on that investment. C) It does sound like you have some remorse from your (big assumption here) college years.
    5. Consider this a learning opportunity.

    Pure gold.

    Out of touch? If he doesn't know what to say by now maybe he shouldn't even have kids. This guy is pretty clueless.

    You're her father dude, you should probably congratulate her. Chick just wants you to be proud of her- be glad she cares.

    If you don't want her to have daddy issues and end up sleeping with the douches on this board, you should probably congratulate her and let her know you care.

    Plus, geography is about a lot more than just where sh*t is now- it's about how things got there whatnot. Not terribly hard but not underwater basket weaving either.

    This may or may not be the same girl, so don't get pissed but I hooked up with this chick last night and after I had pounded her in every orifice, yes ALL of them, she started laughing as she was texting someone. I asked what was so funny and she said that she hadn't attended a class all semester and had just told her dad she made an A in geography when she really got a zero. I'm sure it is just a coincidence though.

    BTW, she blonde and enrolled at BSU?
