If she is coming home from work and if there is some transport facility provided by the employers then it is not a problem at all. But if she is just spending time around hanging out with friends very late, then that is surely a problem. It is very important to make her understand that it is not safe. You can tell her that there is No point of arguing why it is not safe for a girl when it is not the case with a boy. But the fact is, we need to safeguard ourselves from any unwanted incident to happen, to which unfortunately the girls are more prone. If you can quote her some live incidents where girls in the neighbourhood encountered some problems as references and ask her to be a bit early home then i guess she will understand the issue. It need not be exaggerrated to the extent that she becomes scared of going out.

Give her a spare key to enter, so that she can enter without disturbing anybody. Also tell her that you trust her completely, so she should value the faith you have in her and not let you down by indulging in immoral activities. Of course, ask her to ensure her safety..like she should not be alone on empty streets, etc.

You must have to read the attitude of your daughter. After returning home you must gather her asusuall manner and obtain softly the reasons for delay. On the points of reply you must observe the attitude and the face reactions. You must maintain peaceand have calm talk with her observe the problems she facing. Nowadays in the society, there are chances of slipout. Hence it is very carefullym handle the situation. In your talk with her you must show affection and love it will salve the 50% problem. and your talk should be suggestive with her. this will help you to takle the situation.

You guys can only think of sex and virginity when she is asking what to do when her daugher comes home late.

and YOU blame HER for being immoral.

There might be multiple reaons why she comes late. She could be staying late for work / study or she could be having some harmless fun in the company of her friends. If that is the case, there is no need to worry. If she is hanging out with somebody who is undesirable, then it is better to calmly talk her out of it. Scolding her will not stop it. At this point you have to handle the situation delicately and act more like a friend than an harsh parent.

If this is the first time, you dont have to ask anything; (wait till she say something about what happened), if she didn't then next day casually ask her was there any problem yesterday. Always let her know what are the pros and cons of hardworking vs Enjoying life in the childhood /teenage.

So what? If she comes late it might be right reason. You should be having faith in your daughter. Thouse days are gone where daughter comes at 6:00PM. Now girls are competing with boys in all the areas.. If you are really concerned, talk to her and that resolves everything. But always handle it in polite way.

She is giving you mony then you enjoy.

Don't do anything..she will learn by experience it there something wrong will happen
