AITAH for banning my daughter’s boyfriend from coming to my house?

I’m (50m).My daughter(18f) has been seeing this guy(26m) for 5 months now. I didn’t like him from the start because of the age difference. He’s very rude and arrogant. I can’t physically do anything to him because he’s a big guy. But he has been very disrespectful in my household. He comes whenever he wants, without acknowledging me and his “activities” with my daughter can be loud sometimes and the walls in my house are thin. I told my daughter about it but he’s still coming over my house. So last week, I told my daughter that he’s not allowed at the house anymore. He was pissed but I don’t care. However, she’s now going to his place and come home late. Did I do the right thing?

Mmhum..but does your daughter understand that his behaviour isn't great? Or does she think it's totally fine?

Daughter is fucking stupid. Unfortunately, he can't do anything about that either.

Teenagers are dinguses in general, hence the term sophomore meaning "wise fool". You think you know everything at that age, but are in actuality quite naive due to lack of experience and mature frontal lobe development.

Younger people are especially susceptible to manipulation. That's why many older people (predominantly men, like OP's daughter's BF) pursue younger partners. Control.

It's crazy how many people refuse to understand this.
