Perfect for Fatherâ‚¬s Day, a critical read for all dads seeking to connect with their daughters and raise confident young womenÂ in todayâ‚¬s increasingly complicated world.

Itâ‚¬s often difficult for parents to connect with their daughtersâ‚¬â€œand especially so for fathers. In this unique and invaluable guide, Dr. Meg Meeker, a pediatrician with more than twenty yearsâ‚¬ experience counseling girls, reveals that a young womanâ‚¬s relationship with her father is far more important than weâ‚¬ve ever realized. To become a strong, confident woman, a daughter needs her fatherâ‚¬s attention, protection, courage, and wisdom. Dr. Meeker shares the ten secrets every father needs to know in order to strengthen or rebuild bonds with his daughter and shape her lifeâ‚¬â€œand his ownâ‚¬â€œfor the better. Inside youâ‚¬ll discover:

â‚¬ the essential virtues of strong fathersâ‚¬â€œand how to develop them
â‚¬ the cues daughters take from their dads on everything from self-respect to drugs, alcohol, and sex
â‚¬ the truth about ground rules (girls do want them, despite their protests)
â‚¬ the importance of becoming a hero to your daughter
â‚¬ the biggest mistake a dad can makeâ‚¬â€œand the ramifications
â‚¬ the fact that girls actually depend on their dadsâ‚¬ guidance into adulthood
â‚¬ steps fathers can follow to help daughters avoid disastrous decisions and mistakes
â‚¬ ways in which a fatherâ‚¬s faithâ‚¬â€œor lack thereofâ‚¬â€œwill influence his daughter
â‚¬ essential communication strategies for different stages of a girlâ‚¬s life
â‚¬ true stories of â‚¬Å“prodigal daughtersâ‚¬Ââ‚¬â€œand how their fathers helped to bring them back

Dads, you are far more powerful than you thinkâ‚¬â€œand if you follow Dr. Meekerâ‚¬ s advice, the rewards will be unmatched.

â‚¬Å“Reassuring and challenging . . . a helpful road map for concerned fathers [that] tackles difficult issues.â‚¬Â
â‚¬â€œNational Review

â‚¬Å“A touching, illuminating book that will prove valuable to all of us who are fortunate enough to have been blessed with daughters.â‚¬Â
â‚¬â€œMichael Medved, nationally syndicated radio talk-show host, author of Right Turns

â‚¬Å“Dr. Meekerâ‚¬s conclusions are timely, relevant, and often deeply moving. No one interested in what girls experience growing up in our culture todayâ‚¬â€œand the impact that parents, especially fathers, have on the experienceâ‚¬â€œcan afford to miss reading this book.â‚¬Â
