Preparing Your Daughter for Healthy Relationships
If you’re a dad with a daughter, one of your primary tasks is to set the tone for her future relationships with men. Are you warm and nurturing? If so, she will eventually look for a husband with similar qualities. Do you communicate that she’s beautiful and feminine?She’ll be inclined to see herself in the way that you perceive her to be. If you convey strength by blending love and discipline, your daughter will be more comfortable with a give-and-take marriage characterized by mutual respect. But if you reject her, she is likely to spend her life trying to find a man who can meet the needs you never fulfilled in her heart.
