Dads & Daughters Part 2 - Article

Being a father I find it easy to relate to my daughter because I haven't had a son before and enjoy being in the company of women in general! For my little lady, I hope I can be "special, strong, reliable and trusted male in her life"

What "we as fathers" can do is the following:

* Take an interest in her life, making sure I know the names of friends, interests etc

* Play sport with her and being physically active with her

* Don't be too protective of her – this is something that is going to be hard – she is my little princess and I need to protect her from the world. I can hear the song "Macho Macho Man, Who wants to be a Macho Man??" hmm ...

* If you have a son don't place more restrictions on her because of this.

* Being available for one-to-one conversations. Be the listener and not the talker.

* Do things together. Go to her sports events and other such activities

* Drive her to school etc

* Show a positive and respectful attitude to women. Wolf whistle when she isn't around
