How should a father express his feelings to his teenage daughter?
When a daughter is young, the father can freely express his feelings towards her. However, when the daughter begins to enter puberty, father and daughter gradually grow apart because gender differences become more evident.
Many parents feel uncomfortable or even confused about how to act when they see their daughters entering puberty for the first time. Curtis has advised many parents who feel confused when it comes to expressing their feelings towards their growing daughters.
These confusions and dilemmas can cause many parents to gradually reduce their interactions with their daughters, leaving a huge void in the feelings of both father and daughter. The father still loves his daughter very much, but it is the confusion that makes him choose to step back.

The arrival of puberty opens a complicated period in the relationship between father and daughter. However, according to expert Curtis, when the daughter enters adolescence, the father should not increase the distance between them, but should be more sensitive, subtle, pick up on the girls signals and expressions in order to respond appropriately.
At this time, your child is going through an important stage with many changes. Sometimes, it is difficult for him to express his innermost feelings. It is the subtlety, sensitivity and close support of parents that will help your child get through this stage well.
According to Curtis, the fathers role is very important for the daughter. The relationship between father and daughter is the first relationship in the girls life with a person of the opposite sex. It is the fathers behavior that will establish in the girl the first rules on how to behave and interact with men.
In fact, the relationship between father and daughter will have a great impact on the girls future emotional relationships. Therefore, it is important that at all times the father shows his daughter that her parents love her unconditionally.
When a daughter enters puberty, the father should not take a step back in his interactions with her, but should show more respect, greater sensitivity and delicacy.
