Dear fathers raising daughters, please read!
Your daughters desperately Need you at Puberty especially because girls at this stage are going through a time of great insecurity. You are their protector and their source of stability. Your love now is critical to their ability to cope with the rejection, hurt, and fears that are coming at them from their peers. Hugs are needed now more than ever. Fathers need to continue providing the physical contact that was appropriate during earlier childhood. It should not be sexual in nature, of course, but a loving, fatherly response is still vital. The last thing you want to convey now, even inadvertently, is that your love has melted away. So hide the awkwardness, Dad, and hug your child like you did when she was six!
There is a place in the female soul reserved for Daddy, or a daddy figure, that will always yearn for affirmation forever. Some of you will not like to hear this but mothers cannot fill this particular empty space unfortunately. This is not to minimize the maternal role in any regard. But moms can’t be dads, and dads can’t be moms. Prepare for the day when you’re not the most important man in her life. Before then, do tell your daughter she’s the daughter you’ve always dreamed about always.
Your daughter's relationship with you is critical initial interaction with the masculine gender. You are the first man whose attention they crave for. You are the first man they will flirt with, the first man they will cuddle and kiss , the first man to prize them as a very special girl among all other girls. Pay attention to your relationship with her critically.
The fawning attention of a father for his daughter prepares her for her uniquely feminine role as a girlfriend, fiancée and wife. If there was something lacking in this relationship with their father when they are a child, the development of their femininity suffers the most.
If you as a father is emotionally or physically absent, or is harsh, rejecting or angry toward a girl child, she will automatically and subconsciously attach this disapproval to her femininity. This is because this child doesn't have the intellectual capacity to understand the father's rejection, nor do they have the inner defensive structure to insulate themselves against it. And unfortunately this lives with them forever.
We are currently reading Raising Girls in the Inner Circle program of The Intentional Parent Academy and every father in that program has said they wish more fathers will get into parenting academies and take their parenting journey like salvation because everyday they get to see why fathers are irreplaceable. See details to join the academy’s Inner Circle 2023 cohort below.
