As a dad, he tried his best to give her daughter the freedom every teenager deserves. He wanted to be a good dad for her, and she was 18 years old already, and he wanted to be her girl free and open.

The interviewer understood Common very well because she also had a daughter of his daughter's age, and she knew how challenging it is to raise teen girls. 

She also shared her part of the story about her daughter, saying that she went out home in a lovely dress, but her outfit was completely different when she reached the party.
