>>1886881Call her out. Be a close dad. Most fathers I've seen have a weird disconnect with their daughters. Girls that are actually raised by a smart dad that can not only go to the office but also be his daughter's best friend always turn out more open-minded I've noticed. Don't just be "daddy" but be Dad, her best friend. Find common ground. Make common ground. Try to understand what she does.
These are all the things my father did wrong. He is a nice, kind-hearted person, but he never seemed genuine. It was like he just couldn't connect. He goes "Ah, yes. I shall do this. That shall make the kids like me." rather than actually spending time for the sake of spending time. Consequentially, my sister is a wreck of a human being. She's smart, she has incredible grades in college, an active social life...but she's never had a male figure to follow, only our clueless mother and me, the one person who called her out on shit.
Church is not going to help. Most church girls have daddy issues, in my experience. The best way to guide your daughter is by being their. Really. Make yourself a part of her life, not just "daddy" or someshit. Nurture her if she's young, talk to her, be real with her... Don't make the mistake most Dad's do. Find your own manliness and channel it to be captain Dad.
