How often do you take time off to talk with/to your daughter?
Taking time off to have a heartfelt conversation with one's daughter is very important in life. The time you invest in her is the best gift you can give her before she leaves your house.
She has got just few years to live with you & the rest of her life will be spent with her future husband.
Be your daughter's mentor, show her how to love & be loved. Teach & tell her how to choose wisely.
A father's influence in his daughter's life shapes her self-esteem,
self-image, confidence and opinions of men. How Dad approaches life will
serve as an example for his daughter to build off of in her own life,
even if she chooses a different view of the world.
Dads influence their daughter's relationships in so many ways.
The type of men that women date and have long-term relationships with are also directly related to the kind of relationship a girl has with her father. Obviously, the hope is that the father figure in a girl's life will aim to skew that young lady's opinions of men in a positive way. He must, first and foremost, treat his daughter with respect and love. Whether or not he is married to or still together with his daughter's mom, showing respect to her mother is essential as well. Daughters will see what their dads believe about women by how they value and respect women, or by how they fail to do so.
Here are few tips on how to strengthen your relationship with your daughter
Start on Her Birthday.
Fathers who best create this positive relationship start on the day she is born.
Listen Lots
Tell Her She's Beautiful. This will sound a little corny to some fathers, but it is important. Modern culture and the media often give our daughters messages that they need to be the right weight, wear the right makeup, dress stylishly and sometimes immodestly to be beautiful. When you tell your daughter she is beautiful, emphasize the importance of being beautiful inside – more than skin-deep. Compliment her when her eyes sparkle or when she breaks into a big smile.
Write Notes and Letters.
