Watch: Travis Barker Reveals Rules for Alabama Barker’s Dating Life

Travis Barker doesn't mess around when it comes to his kids.

The Blink-182 drummer revealed some of the house rules he has for his daughter Alabama, 18, who he shares with ex Shanna Moaker. Though the 48-year-old doesn't consider himself to be a disciplinarian, Alabama decided to ask her "strict but not strict" dad hypothetical questions about her dating and social life in a TikTok video Jan. 7.

For example, Travis—who welcomed baby boy Rocky with Kourtney Kardashian in November—said that if Alabama ever snuck out at night, he would "tell you how dangerous it is and maybe try to put you on a restriction."

"What would you do if I went out with a boy and I just completely stopped answering?" she asked, to which he replied, "I would come to your location and I would find you." 

As to date nights at home? Travis said she's only allowed to have male friends over if he's also there. And if Alabama ever wants to close her door with a guy in the room, Travis would need to come in and "check on" her first.

However, if she wants to drive to a man's house at night by herself, that's a firm no from dad.

Alabama also asked for his reaction if she ever came home high or drunk, though she said she doesn't "do that." Travis replied, "I would tell you not to ever do it again."

And Travis is confident of his parenting style. When Alabama asked her followers if her dad passed the vibe check, the musician quipped, "Of course I did." 

The consensus? One user called Travis "chill but responsible," while another said he's "still protective" despite his relaxed attitude.
