After being asked about his daughters, Sasha and Malia, and their current dating status, President Obama answered with intelligence and a sense of trust for his two daughters.
We have watched Sasha and Malia go from cute little girls eight years ago to full grown beautiful adults, and we are going to miss them as much as we will miss the POTUS and FLOTUS.
Often we forget that President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama aren’t just the leaders of our country, but they are parents as well and go through the same trials and tribulations with their children as any common parent would. Though most kids don’t have Secret Service to accompany them everywhere, especially not their first date.
According to the President Sasha and Malia are already on the dating scene, but there are two excellent reasons why he is not worried in the least. Obama stated:
“The truth is I’m pretty relaxed about it for two reasons. One is Michelle; she’s such a great example of how she carries herself, her self-esteem and not depending on boys to validate how you look. Not letting yourself be judged by anything but your character and …. And hopefully I’ve set an example by the way I treat my wife, and I don’t think about it because they are really solid smart girls, young ladies now. And the other reason is because they have the Service, there’s only so much these boys can do. These poor young men come by the house, and you know what they have an idea, but I describe for them.”
It’s amazing how Obama’s faith and love for his wife shine through to his trust and understanding for his girls, and while he may be protective over them, he’ll just send his Secret Service to take care of it.
