TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE BLESSED WITH DAUGHTER(S)
Bond of Father And Daughter
The emotion shared between a father and daughter is indeed a unique one
where often the daughter considers her father to be the ultimate man
imbibing every aspect which other male members in her life should possess.
Thus the Father is often treated as the real Hero. On the other hand fathers
always consider their daughters as little angels on earth. Thus the
treatment towards each is other is indeed unique and adorable. Continue
reading to find out more about the emotions exchanged between that of a
father and a daughter.
A flower is born ushering in loads of joy - is how the birth of a daughter
affects a father. Right from childhood, a daughter looks up to her father as
the hero. She idol worships him, looking in him the confident, sturdy and
perfect gentleman. The father also enjoys the attention and faith a daughter
renders.
Between father and son, often egotism acts as a deterrent to the perfect
bonding. But with a daughter, the macho-ism of the father is nurtured and
nothing works better for a man to feel like a man.
Under his perfect guidance, a father transforms a bud into a fully blossomed
flower. His daughter turns into a woman with enough self-radiance to face
the world and she does that with aplomb. For this, communication between
father and daughter is quintessential.
DAD-DAUGHTER COMMUNICATION
(I) LISTENING - Fathers should listen to their daughters. They should pay
attention even in the most ordinary moments. This is because a daughter's
voice is the conduit to her heart and soul. When she starts speaking,
metaphorically and literally, she feels safer and more secure.
Daughters should also not hesitate when speaking their heart out to their
fathers, especially if it pertains to the opposite sex. Your father will be
the best guide for seeing you through such situations. You should also
listen to your father's problems if you ever see him struggling with
something. Your tender and understanding nature is sure to cheer him up.
(II) PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS -
Then a daughter shares any kind of problem with their fathers, the latter
should always ask whether he should offer advice or just listen. That way,
the daughters tend to be more open minded and accept advice from their
fathers. As with all kinds of parenting, there are no guarantees of
outcomes. But one should be satisfied knowing he has made a difference in
his daughter's life. Daughters should confidently share their problems
knowing that Dad will not only listen intently, but will also help in
summing up a solution. A father's problems are much more serious but women,
being a lot more mature at a younger age, are able to tackle most of the
problems. They are also good listeners.
III) HONESTY -
In order for a daughter to be honest with her father, the latter must not
reprimand his daughter for speaking a truth which he did not want to hear.
It is not always easy speaking the truth, especially if she knows it is
something he won't like. He should praise her for the honesty before
dwelling into the subject. Daughters should remember that there can be no
better person to share the truth with than a father. Mothers usually let
emotions prevail over advice but fathers are firm.
(IV) OPEN COMMUNICATION -
Fathers must resist the urge to criticize if they expect daughters to be
open about their problems. The comments may not seem particularly harsh to
the father but it may imply something entirely different to the daughter,
depending on the situation. Listening without interruption and understanding
her point of view is ideal.
Daughters should keep in mind that whatever her father says is for her own
benefit and she must not misinterpret. Even if harsh words are exchanged,
she will find that, on pondering over her father's words, he actually meant
to help her all along.
(V) INVOLVEMENT -
Fathers should try to understand why his daughter is so concerned about her
body image. The underlying message women receive from society is they have
to look a certain way to attract a boy's attention. A dad counters such
destructive messages when he plays a sport with his daughter, attends her
recital, drives her to practice and cheers on her will and persistence. It
doesn't need to be an organized sport. It could be really simple from
playing catch to jumping rope or just walking the dog together.
Daughters should also get involved in their fathers lives and try to find
out if anything is bothering him. Try and make him say it so that he can
feel lighter. If not, comfort him to the best of your efforts.
FINAL NOTE
Help make this world a better place for women. Protest against rape, media
exploitation of females, pornography and any kind of violence against women.
Nullify every "boys are more important than girls" attitude.
------------------------------------------------------
To a father waxing old, nothing is dearer than
a daughter. Sons have spirits of higher pitch
but less inclined to sweet,endaring fondness.

A MAN IS NOT A FATHER UNTIL HE HAS DAUGHTER
A COUPLE MADE A DEAL THE NIGHT OF THEIR MARRIAGE TO NOT OPEN THE DOOR OF
THEIR ROOM TO ANYBODY WHO COMES KNOCKING IN THE MORNING FOR ANY REASON!
IN THE MORNING THE PARENTS OF THE HUSBAND CAME & KNOCKED ON THE DOOR, THE
HUSBAND & THE WIFE WERE LOOKING AT EACH OTHER & AS THEY AGREED BEFORE, THEY
DIDN'T OPEN THE DOOR.
AFTER A WHILE THE PARENTS OF THE BRIDE CAME KNOCKING AT THE DOOR TO CHECK ON
THEM, THE COUPLE WERE LOOKING AT EACH OTHER, THEN THE BRIDE DROPPED A TEAR &
STARTED CRYING SHE SAID: "I CANNOT KEEP THEM KNOCKING & NOT OPEN THE DOOR, I
MISS THEM ALREADY"
THE HUSBAND DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING & HE LET HER OPEN THE DOOR FOR HER PARENTS.
YEARS & YEARS PASSED & THE COUPLE HAD 5 CHILDREN, THE FIRST ONES WERE BOYS &
THE 5TH WAS A LITTLE GIRL, WHEN SHE WAS BORN THE FATHER WAS EXTREMELY HAPPY
THAT ALMIGHTY BLESSED HIM WITH HER, & HE THREW A HUGE PARTY FOR HER IN GRAND
STYLE, PEOPLE WERE SO AMAZED WITH HIS JOY & HIS HAPPINESS THAT THEY ASKED
HIM, WHY ARE YOU SO HAPPY WITH HER MORE THAN YOU WERE BEFORE WITH HER OLDER
BROTHERS?
He answered simply: "She is the one who will open the door for
me"
Baby girls are the comfort of the eyes of their father!
They hold the key to their father's hearts!
Daughters are really unique.
They care for their parents even after they are married.
It's rightly said, "A son is a son till he gets a Wife,
a daughter is a daughter all her
Life!"
Very true - A man is not a father until he has daughter !
