I can’t tell you why her parents would be okay with it, but I think you might want to ask your dad why he’s okay with it. A tough conversation, for sure, and I think we all kinda know the answer, but making him say it out loud might begin the process to put an end to it.

My girlfriend has a 15 year old daughter (I’m 49). I enjoy her company a lot. She’s a great kid. The thought of any kind of romantic or sexual relationship with her turns my stomach. It should also turn your dad’s stomach, and he shouldn’t be allowed to get away with “I enjoy her company”. But that’s just my opinion. I don’t know your family dynamics, and I know it’s easy to preach about what I think should be done from the outside.
Very tough spot to be in, and I have no advice beyond confrontation. I’m sorry you have to deal with this.

This is very well put. Sometimes it can be fun to hang out with the current gen teenagers just to make fun of eachother and laugh at the differences in our generations, but also to gain some respect for eachother too. But why would any adult want to date somebody whose biggest life issues are high school grades and part time jobs? They’re not even old enough to vote or be concerned about living costs or adult problems. This isn’t saying that their current problems aren’t big deals - in the scope of things, they are completely valid and big concerns - but when you enter adulthood, you have bigger things to worry about.
