I'm 31 years old and my wife is 24. We have 4 children with twins. Have been married for 6 yrs.
My wife has 3 sisters and a brother. One of the sisters and brother are married. My other two sister in laws are 17 & 15 yrs and they have been living with us for the past six years.
I treat my two sister in laws as my own daughters and they call me dad and I'm fine with that. My wife's parents died when they were 3 & 5 yrs. They've been living with us for 6 yrs and they have called me dad all this time. My wife's happy about it and says I'm great.
I treat them like my own daughters from my heart and have done everything to them including all expenses. I've bought two houses for them, for their marriage. They say that I am like their own dad and kiss me.When I married they were 9 & 11 and from then they have been kissing me Is it okay for them to kiss me in a FATHER DAUGHTER WAY ONLY on the cheek and calling me dad? My wife says she's happy when they kiss me and treat me like a dad

Be happy and enjoy that you have made it to that place in their heart! What an awesome man you are, your wife and her family are very lucky you are in their lives!

This could be a potential problem in this day and age because kids mature very fast and little girls develop strong feelings for men in their lives whether they look at you now as a father or brother sometimes our feelings get a little diluted with all those extra hormones and other knucklehead boys around us too. So for further reference maybe you should start treating them like your sister-in-laws now and save yourself the sob story from your wife five to ten years from now when she sees her sisters for the beautiful young women they are and begins to think that they are moving in on her so naive husband.

You are all they have known as a father. While you recognize them as sister-in-laws, they depend on you as a father. There is nothing wrong with that at all.
It sounds like you are worried about them kissing you, but if they had been older when you got married, don't you think that they would have been kissing you on the cheek as their brother-in-law?
Take care,
Troy

I think it is a good thing you are willing to take all that responsibility for the girls, as for the kissing i would say there isn't anything wrong with it as long as it is just in a father daughter way.

If you treat them like your children and they are calling you dad then i dont' see the problem. I mean it's a little wierd but if you and your wife treat them as they are you own then what is the problem? If you really feel uncomfortable about it maybe you should talk to your wife about it.

This is a result of the society we live in today. Although I realize that you have treated these girls as your own I can't help thinking that's its wrong. I shouldn't. You obviously love these girls as daughters and as long as you treat them like that its great. As long as you know how you feel about them and are happy to let it continue, you should.

unless you are having feelings other then a dad i don't see anything wrong with it . you raised them your the only male figure they know and you do for them as a father would do so go ahead and be proud and except the kisses and hugs and everything else a father should receive from his daughters

I think the fact that they call you Dad might confuse people, but if it doesnt feel wrong then its not wrong.. nothing wrong with that. If you're happy, she's happy and they are happy then i dont c a problem with that... Just go with it.
You're being an awsome person. they need the love and it makes ur wife happy to see her sisters happy. =]..

If you are loving these girls as a father loves them you are a great dad.You are also showing them that not all men think of women as sex objects.I'd like to think that even if one of them approached you in a sexual manner that you would put a stop to that and show them love without sex between family.Good luck I hope you are the man you sound to be and not an undercover perv.

first of all your a good dad, you should feel proud of that. second is sooner that later you need to sit down and have a chat with your dauters (sister in law's) and tell them the truth, no offense or nothing but its not right for them to grow up calling you daddy.
