A Utah dad fed up with his daughter’s preference for very short shorts decided to teach her a lesson by donning some Daisy Dukes of his own.
Scott Mackintosh was about to go on a family night out, but when he asked his daughter to kindly change into longer shorts and she refused, he took some scissors to an old pair of his own jeans.
The result was a revealing pair of cut-offs designed to show his daughter her shorts aren’t ‘as cute as she thinks.’
‘In our family we have pretty definite modesty guidelines,’ writes Mackintosh on his wife Becky’s blog.
One of those guidelines happens to be no short-shorts.
‘I’m a firm believer that the way we dress sends messages about us, and it influences the way we and others act,’ he writes.
Every Monday, the Mackintoshes do something together ‘in an effort to try to spend time with just the family.’
Last Monday, they decided to go out to eat.
But as they were about to leave, Mackintosh’s teen daughter was resolute—she would not change out of her Daisy Dukes.
At first, the kids had their heads buried in their phones, Mackintosh said, and didn’t notice his revealing attire.
‘Why are you dressed like that?’ his daughter eventually asked when they were nearly at the restaurant. ‘Oh well, I don’t care.’
Dinner came and went without Mackintosh’s daughter breaking a sweat, so he decided to take things to the next level.
‘OK, let’s go miniature golfing,’ he said.

I’ll give you double the amount.
Maybe he was just looking for an excuse to wear that cute little outfit [and have the pic go "viral" as well]. I vote "weirdo."
(Nice legs, regardless.)
Dang, Laz, you do drive a hard bargain.
Let me look for my abacus and I’ll get back to you soon as I figure the profit on that.
Simple enough.
On most issues, parenting is quite easy......I say no, you say yes ma’am, you try to to add a “but” in your next breath, I take a step closer, you stop talking, and we move on. What could be easier?
My wife showed me the story yesterday - the dude is brilliant, I loved it
Well, I’m glad you have an open mind to alternate lifestyles, Laz. Just don’t hit me up to pay your resulting medical bills.
LOL!
DON'T JUDGE ME.
Yeah, that was the plan. Drats, foiled again!
No doubt Agent Mataz helped you out there; admit it. Next time, pal, next time...
Frickin’ fetishist! Why can’t you mate with dirty gym socks like all the others?!?
(Nice legs, regardless.)
Dude’s no Tom Selleck.
Whoo, ain't that the truth!
Kind of you to include the picture.
