Becoming the Dad Your Daughter Needs

A father models for his daughter how women should be treated, how men should act, and how a man shows healthy love and affection toward a woman. And, perhaps most importantly, he sets the standard for how his daughter feels she deserves to be treated by men. Rick Johnson shows men how to develop the close relationships with their daughters that they both need and crave.

This is a big responsibility, and it's not always easy to carry out.

But parenting expert Rick Johnson is here to help. He shows you how to develop a close relationship with your daughter, giving you the confidence and the encouragement you need to take up the active, positive role that can change your daughter's life--starting now.
