52 Things Daughters Need from Their Dads

What Fathers Can Do to Build a Lasting Relationship

De: Jay Payleitner

Narrado por: Jay Payleitner

Most dads love their daughters, but they're uncertain how they can show that love in a way their daughters understand...or figure out what their girls really need from them.

Jay Payleitner has given thousands of dads great, man-friendly advice in his best-selling 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad. Now Jay guides his listeners into what is unexplored territory for many of them - girl land - giving them ways to...

• Do things with their daughters, not just for them
• Lecture less and listen more
• Be on the lookout for "hero moments" and take advantage of them
• Realize that their daughters are females...and tailor their actions and responses accordingly
• Give their daughters a positive view of the male sex

Dads will feel respected and encouraged - not made to feel guilty - and they'll gain confidence to initiate activities that build lifelong positives into their girls. Great gift or men's group resource.

Good Reminder

Good for those that need, like I do, to pay attention to your daughter and how you actions or lack thereof can help to inform their life.

Blessed

This was a great book, I just pray God will help me to be a better father!

Watch out, it’ll make you cry

An excellent book with great pointers for every Dad. I only wish I had gotten it sooner as one of my two daughters is already in college.

Wish I had this 10 years ago

Where does 52 Things Daughters Need from Their Dads rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is a good parent guide and along with Girls Will Be Girls (a must read by J. Deaks) is a great combination

Any additional comments?

There is nothing wrong in being a better father and as an educator I find this information will make me a better teacher.

A quick listen worth hearing over and over!

It had me in tears at my failures and filled with hope for my daughter and I's future.

a little too Christian based for me, but good

it should be classified as a audiobook in the religious section, but it really is a great book and worth the listen. he has great ideas on how to be a good dad. the last few minutes of the book his voice kinda cracks up which is nice because you can hear the love in his voice for his daughter. overall a good read and something all of us dads should hear, they just need to dial the God focus back a little, for me anyways.

Family and God approach in learning

This is my second book on raising a daughter and was 1 of the 3 books I was considering when first looking into the subject. I should start by saying it is a Christian publishing and the main focus is finding a relationship between you your daughter and God. That doesn't mean the book is worthless if you are not religious and there are a few good takeaways that are worth hearing. If I am using a credit I would probably go with Dr. Leman's 'Be the Dad she needs you to be.' In my opinion he articulated things better while Payletiner mostly told us stories of his own family. After all what works for ones daughter may not for another.

Now that this book is free with membership it is still worth picking up. There are areas I wish he went into more detail in and took more of a psychological approach but it really just depends on the readers preference.

Great book!

Especially for the busy dad always on the go, with girls at home that are between 5 and 15

All men should read this

I think all men weather you are a father or not, should read this book at least once. Men have a God given responsibility to father, no one else gets that right, we must rise up and be as we've been created. You are fathering someone, or you will someday. Be prepared.

Get focused on your Daughter

Jay does a great job of refocusing your today mind on how it affects your Daughter over the next 30 years.
