The Father – Daughter Relationship

My dad was one of those dad’s that ruled with an iron fist. It was “his way or no way”. He often used the saying “because I said so and that’s all that matters”. My momma always had to consult him before any decision. In our house when we asked something of one parent they would always say, “Go ask your Father”, or “Go ask your Mother”. My parents always worked together and my daddy always had the last word.

Fathers are to be the “head of the household” according to the Bible and as daughters we must learn to respect our daddies. The father daughter relationship can be very important. Our relationship with our earthly daddy can teach us a great deal about our relationship with our Heavenly Father and it can have a great impact upon it as well.

A father’s relationship with his daughter can truly make an impact upon her for eternity. I am blessed that my father took such an active role in parenting me, even if he did do so with a strong will.

I know girls that sometimes it is difficult to deal with a strong fisted father. He only wants what is best for you. Moms, if you want to help your daughter with her relationship with her Father always encourage the strength of that relationship. Never try to outshine her father, always respect his wishes, and encourage her to respect him as well.
