Daddy's Little Girl...a term of endearment from a daughter to a loving father or from a father to his princess. Every little girl needs her father. She needs a strong man who will love her unconditionally and show her how a male should love her righteously. A good father can help his daughter understand her worth and teach her how to respect herself and demand that other men respect her as well. Girls need love. We are emotional creatures most of whom are pretty clingy at times simply because we need to feel that love that we long for all the time. A nurturing loving mother and father are vital relationships needed in order for a young lady to have healthy development emotionally and sometimes mentally in her life.
What is the difference in most cases for a young lady who grew up without a father as opposed to the young lady who grew up without her father? Well it varies. A good nurturing mother is a key component as well. However a young lady who grows up without a father is more likely to reach out to other males for that time, attention and love that she desires and has every right to get from her father. Searching for that male who will be her protector, her security (financially and physically), amongst other things leads her to compromise good judgement and her self worth to get what she desires, even if the man or boy she is confiding in is not treating her right.
A male can sense a vulnerable girl a mile away. So an unrighteous boy or man will take advantage of her being naive or vulnerable because she makes it too easy for him. A young lady with a good father in her life has a man who will protect her in every capacity not just physically. He will do everything in his power to shield her from dangers especially those associated with boys or men who will take advantage of her. He knows that having been a boy once before himself, he can effectively warn her about the deception she may encounter and therefore she will be equipped to protect herself when her father is not around.
Our men must step up and step into our daughter's lives. Help them understand that they are loved and should carry themselves with respect. Men warn your daughters that if they go out of the house in that short skirt or revealing dress that they may attract the wrong attention and it could result in rape or death. Tell your daughter that you love her, besides you will be the first man that she ever loves so make it count.
