I have four daughters and would the same. If the guy decides he wants to date our daughter he has to come ask us first or it's already a no. If you can get in the door you are lucky but be very prepared for a drill of a life time. I'm really hard on all the girls but I really want them to be happy and choose a wonderful man and not just settle for one. It's a day and night job. 1 is married and 2 in college and one in tenth grade. My son says im just terrible and need to learn to let go. But no way I don't stop being a mother.
Get back to those blocks and get them sent in. Times a ticking. LOL
I do feel your pain though.
