Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A comprehensive guide to help dads support their daughters through the preteen and teen years up to adulthood
"Communication" with your daughter doesn't mean having "big" conversations all the time. Creating even the smallest moments of father-daughter connection can build bonds. In Talk with Her, you'll find information on nineteen topics defining your daughter's life-including body positivity, romantic relationships, social media, mental health, and academic achievement-along with the communication strategies you'll need to address them with care and confidence.
With cutting-edge research, expert perspectives, and talking points, Kimberly Wolf brings broad-ranging and often overwhelming topics into focus to help you make a positive, lifelong impact on your daughter one conversation at a time.
"Kimberly Wolf provides a vital map for fathers in navigating the most important-and often the most challenging and turbulent-aspects of father-daughter relationships. This is an engaging, insightful, thoughtful, and wonderfully useful book." -Dr. Richard Weissbourd, Senior Lecturer and Faculty Director of Making Caring Common, Harvard Graduate School of Education

The author covers nineteen fundamental topics defining a daughter's life with information fathers need to address them, including body positivity, gender and sexual identity, negative peer influence, academic achievement, and financial literacy. For each topic, the author provides background knowledge, including cutting-edge research, expert perspectives, and terminology to help bring topics into focus; goals to help focus fathers on deeper, more lasting impacts; talking points for conversations; and specifics on what to say and what not to say"-- Provided by publisher.
