Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Supported by expert opinion, educator Marone argues that the father-daughter relationship directly determines female achievement and psychological adjustment. She presents practical stratagems for concerned fathers: checklists of do's and don'ts; sample father-child conversations; a "parenting style" quiz; suggestions for relating to sexually maturing adolescents; and clear advice on risktaking, male advocacy, mediocre school performance, female eating disorders, and the nurturance of self-esteem. Marone's elitist perspective (derived from 11 years' teaching gifted children) skews her choice of examples, but happily her personal narratives interject prescription with sentiment. Recommended for both parents. Janice Arenofsky, formerly with Arizona State Lib., Phoenix

Product Description
A father-daughter relationship is a special bond--and it requires very special attention. Statistics show that a father's caring presence can make all the difference in raising a daughter who strives to reach her potential. Step-by-compassionate-step, How to Father a Successful Daughter gives men high-quality parenting skills that will promote self-esteem and confidence in their daughters. Here is concrete, sympathetic advice and helpful suggestions on how to:

¸ Instill self-respect and boldness in your little girl--and avoid unintentionally programming her to become fearful and underachieving
¸ Encourage risk-taking, goal-oriented behavior with safe and specific techniques and activities
¸ Keep from sending your daughter messages that can result in eating disorders, learning blocks, and emotional dependence
¸ Work with your wife (or ex-wife) to give the best overall parenting to your daughter

Armed with these reassuring strategies, fathers will learn to communicate with their daughters with love, wisdom, and understanding.
