She is young and impressionable. This is probably the most concentrated time she will ever spend with him for the rest of her life.

What "Life Lessons" is Dick teaching her intentionally or unintentionally?

Tobor,

Dick 'unintentionally' is teaching her to be just like him.

"intentionally' he's teaching her that she has to keep on fighting to get what she desires, but of course this is game related because they are playing a game in the BB house.

The BB house isn't the best place to teach 'life lessons', and actually I think Daniele is teaching Dick some lessons of her own...

Well he gave up the POV for her so he taught her that sacrificing one's self for someone you love is a good thing.

Good lord, look at his mySpace. [shudder] Hopefully she is learning to not take him seriously because that's what I would do.

Well put Hot! Personally I don't think that's a lesson people learn until they become a parent themselves.

Editing self...

That should have been SOME people don't learn that until they become a parent themselves.

It took Dick almost 21 years to learn it!

She expected him to do that.

She is actually very much like him in many ways. We all get our major traits from our parents, no matter how much we rebel or dislike them.

If you think hard about it, what we dislike about our parents is really what we dislike about ourselves.

I think Dani has learned how NOT to be through Dick when it comes to confrontation. I don't think I have ever heard her curse at anyone when she is upset. She seems to take pride in that too.

He taught her that if someone says something you don't like, you should dump tea on their head.

Klaw, after seeing her strategic performance ripping into all of the Hg's for not treating her fairly, it seems to me she has learned Dick's strategy of irate, angry, out of control attacks screaming and yelling -- she just does it from a different angle.

I don't think that he takes himself seriously.

I think that he's teaching her that it's okay to say that you made a mistake or made the wrong choices in life.

I think that he's also teaching her to be her own person.

i didn't know that in a game which centers on lies, deceit and manipulation, was a place to learn life lessons!

I think that Danielle has already learned life's lessons from growing up with Dick as her father.

She is almost 21 and has been living on her own for some time now. From watching her conversations with Dick and others, I think that the game is teaching her more about life than her Father is.

I'm sure she is learning whatever her dad may or maynot be he loves her very much. This game may have been an opportunity for her to see that. I also think that she may be learning that when push comes to shove there is nobody who she can really trust more than her family. As my mom always told me "blood is thicker than water".
I think we all might glean a few lessons as well, I know that I have.

The best way to get daddy (and others) to do what you want is to whine.

I think she could learn from Dick:

Don't take yourself too seriously...
He's there when she really needs him now (or at least now he wants to be)..
Be true to yourself..

I wish he would teach her to not be so bratty and sulky.. hehs

I think a lot of us have learned many life lessons both good and bad from Our parents. At least I know I have and many people around me also have but the bottom line is we will become the people we want to be!

He is just confirming what she has already learned; that you can either yell or whine for the control. Chances are her kids will be learning fun stuff too.

Dick is teaching Dani that you can say anything you want if it gets you what you want.

And also that you can hurt anyone you want, as deeply as you want, if it gets you want you want.

I agree with What.

I think he is teaching her that it is OK to say or do whatever you want in order to get what you want, no matter who else gets hurt. Limits and boundaries apply to other people, not to yourself.
