(110,159 posts)tears just reading this. because it should all be a part, and so often it is lacking. i had that in my life. to this day, my father at 72, i tell him WHY i have made so many good choices was the example he set, the respect he showed me and women as a whole. i thank him to this day.
the father teaches her daughter her worth. that is a big deal. and you did a wonderful job doing exactly that. all of this is such a value and so special for your daughter. not to mention, for you.
thanks for sharing this with us.
tell your friends who have daughters. help them too.
i had all this with my father. good stuff. to be loved, from the first man in our lives. and know what it is. then we demand, insist, expect nothing less than respect, the rest of our lives.
