Why is the Father-Daughter Relationship Important?

Building a father-daughter relationship at a young age is an essential aspect of a girl’s psychological adjustments. Being emotionally attached to her father benefits a girl throughout her life. Here are some reasons why a strong bond between the father and daughter is crucial:

  • Fathers are role models. They lay a foundation of security, trust, and love.
  • Daughters tend to judge all the other men who come into their lives later based on the example their fathers set for them.
  • A girl develops confidence and self-esteem if she has a good bond with her father.
  • When a father gets involved in his daughter’s education, she tends to do better as compared to girls whose fathers never get involved.
  • Girls have a better career because of the early influence of their fathers. They become more successful and achievement-oriented.
  • A loving father makes his daughter feel good about herself as he helps her during every stage of her life.

 How Does a Father Influence His Daughter’s Life?

Every father-daughter relationship goes through three different phases. Some are difficult while others are easy and fun, but they are all important.

1. When She is a Child

Also known as the ‘hero dad-princess daughter phase’, this first phase is easy and fun. During this phase, the daughter is the darling little princess, and the dad is her superhero. At this age, the father influences the daughter in the following ways:


  • Mental and Emotional Development

During the early stages of the girl’s life, the involvement of her father helps in her emotional and mental development. Children who are attached to their fathers are better at finding solutions to general problems. They also show less anxiety and withdrawal behaviours when they are close to their fathers.

  • A Sense of Security

Feeling secure is important for a girl as she grows up. It enables her to thrive in a relatively safe environment if she knows that her father is watching out for her. She also develops self-confidence and is free of inhibitions.

2. When She is a Teenager

This is a tricky phase. The daughter might start rolling her eyes at everything her father says, and it is not a very enjoyable phase for the father. In this situation, relationship problems may occur between a father-daughter. This phase starts when she is 11 years old and ends after she turns 21. This stage might get a little confusing for the father, but he must not forget that she is trying to figure out herself and the world. Many fathers prefer to step back a little and help her raise her self-esteem.

  • Moral Guidance

The father’s connection and communication will help the daughter make the right decisions. A father should provide stability and moral guidance to his daughter because this is the time when she is surrounded and tempted by bad influences.

  • Body Image

Having a good relationship with the father will help the girl make healthier choices in life. She also will have increased confidence.
