- Description
- This book examines the factors that can strengthen or weaken the father-daughter relationship and the impact that these relationships have on society. Attention is given a.o. to the importance of the father’s role on daughters and the changing patterns of these roles, the myths and misconceptions of father-daughter relationships, the behaviours that constitute ‘good’ fathering, how fathers affect their daughters’ social, academic and intellectual development, factors that can weaken father-daughter relationships (e.g. divorce), and the impact of fathers who are incarcerated, abusive, alcoholics, gay, or sperm donors. With personal stories from fathers and daughters, including well-known celebrities and politicians.
