About this product

Product Information

Perfect for Father's Day, a critical read for all dads seeking to connect with their daughters and raise confident young women in today's increasingly complicated world. It's often difficult for parents to connect with their daughters-and especially so for fathers. In this unique and invaluable guide, Dr. Meg Meeker, a pediatrician with more than twenty years' experience counseling girls, reveals that a young woman's relationship with her father is far more important than we've ever realized. To become a strong, confident woman, a daughter needs her father'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 life-and his own-for the better. Inside you'll discover: - the essential virtues of strong fathers-and how to develop them - the cues daughters take from their dads on everything from self-respect to drugs, alcohol, and sex - the truth about ground rules (girls do want them, despite their protests) - the importance of becoming a hero to your daughter - the biggest mistake a dad can make-and the ramifications - the fact that girls actually depend on their dads' guidance into adulthood - steps fathers can follow to help daughters avoid disastrous decisions and mistakes - ways in which a father's faith-or lack thereof-will influence his daughter - essential communication strategies for different stages of a girl's life - true stories of "prodigal daughters"-and how their fathers helped to bring them back Dads, you are far more powerful than you think-and if you follow Dr. Meeker's advice, the rewards will be unmatched. "Reassuring and challenging . . . a helpful road map for concerned fathers that] tackles difficult issues." -National Review "A touching, illuminating book that will prove valuable to all of us who are fortunate enough to have been blessed with daughters." -Michael Medved, nationally syndicated radio talk-show host, author of Right Turns "Dr. Meeker's conclusions are timely, relevant, and often deeply moving. No one interested in what girls experience growing up in our culture today-and the impact that parents, especially fathers, have on the experience-can afford to miss reading this book." -Armand M. Nicholi, Jr., M.D., professor of psychiatry, Harvard Medical School

Fantastic book for father's of any age
I haven't written a lot of reviews on eBay, but I believe this one deserves it. As a father of a young 13 month old daughter, the topics covered in this book really hit home. The statistics she (the author) covers early on are heartbreaking. But she doesn't leave you heartbroken! She points out what I've long believed, and that is that father's at home make all the difference in the world. Whether you're expecting a daughter, have a toddler or teen, I would highly recommend this book. Step up, and be the father your daughter needs!

Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters by Meg Meeker Review
I bought this book as a gift for my husband for Father's Day. I ended up reading it myself and found it compelling, inspiring and applicable even in my own role as a parent. Meg Meeker has a wealth of information, data and personal experiences from years of counseling teens that she brings to her readers. I found her personal stories very interesting and could relate them to adolescents in my own life. Dr. Meeker's broad range of scientific, objective and relevant data is, at times, shocking but essential for every parent to know. After reading this book, I am convinced that a father is the most influential person in a girl's life. Dr. Meeker speaks of how society, media and culture minimize the role of fathers when exactly the opposite is true. Men are very different from women and teach our daughters about pragmatism, humility, integrity and courage. This is a great book to encourage men to step up and fulfill the strong parental role that children today so desperately need. I am also convinced that much of what Dr. Meeker prescribes for fathers in raising strong, confident high-moraled daughters can be applied to both moms and dads in raising girls and boys, although many stories and situations are girl-related. I would recommend this book to anyone who has any interest in helping, encouraging or raising our youth of today.Read full review

A MUST Read for Moms & Dads of Daughters
My husband and I have read this book and we found it to be so helpful in understanding our roles as parents to our 3 daughters. The author stresses the importance of a father in a daughters life. At first I started to feel a bit jealous of the huge impact a dad can have on his daughters. Although I knew mothers were also of great value to their children, I couldn't help but feel a little insignificant. Because I take such an active role in raising my children to become women of strong character, well grounded with deep rooted values & morals, it bothered me that when compared to my husband, I wouldn't have quite the same impact on their lives as he would. That is when I realized that as I continued to cultivate my relationship with them, I would also help to nourish the relationships between my husband and our children! Now I might whisper a quick heads up to my husband like..."Emily's wearing a new dress today, make sure you let her know how pretty she looks" or "Hannah's really had a hard day today, why don't you take her on your errand and spend some time with her." My husband who sometimes can miss these little opportunities, appreciates me giving him these little pointers, and I get to do my part in helping my children to feel secure and loved. I still do my fair share of instructing and teaching, but now that I know more about how daughters depend so heavily on their fathers, it makes me more aware of their need for him. Also to be more excepting of his parenting style. Just a side note... originally I started reading the book because of my daughters, but while reading, it also made me look at my own relationship with my dad. It really helped me to understand better why I sometimes feel the way I do!Read full review

Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters by Meg Meeker
This book is being heavily promoted by Dave Ramsey as his best read for the year. I am an adult daughter whose dad could have used this book when I was a girl growing up with my sister. I have not read the book but I purchased the book for my father who was having surgery and could have been laid out for a few weeks or just a day or so. I can say that he could not put down the book and read the first 30 pages (not skimmed like he usually does) and said "We NEED to talk." I asked him later about what he thought of the book in a large group and he said kindly that we needed to talk about this together soon. So based on what he said...he sees that this book is very important for fathers to read to help his daughters grow to be strong women. I look forward to having that cup of coffee alone with my dad one day.Read full review

Train your daughter to resist our negative culture
Written by a pediatrician, the author presents an unassailable case for the value of a engaged father coupled with a religious foundation in inoculating our daughters against a toxic culture. Even for nonbelievers, it presents practical arguments for fighting against the messages force fed to our children that result in eating disorders, depression and risky sexual behavior. For believers, it is a convincing treatise for not leaving instruction on such important issues to schools, churches and synagogues. I particularly learned from the sections talking about the importance of humility (which is equated with weakness in our society) as well as the distinction between raising "princesses" (as many of we fathers tend to do) who expect happiness and fulfillment to be served on a silver platter to them by others, versus pioneer women who learn to seek their own path. I expect to re-read this book several times as my daughter grows up.Read full review
