I am not sure what exactly you are asking....
A father figure in a woman's life is important. He is her primary male figure, one that gives her atention and makes her feel special, prescious, and loved,in a NON-SEXUAL way.
Girls who grow up without adequate male attention, later on in life CRAVE that male attention. They are vulnerable to feeling like their worth is wrapped up in their sexuality. They see being sexy as the way to get that male attention.
A father figure should be supportive about her abilities, her talents, skills, and other redeeming qualities. She should treat her with respect and dignity. He needs to show her, through his actions, that there is so much more to her than her sexuality, and that other males should respect her, too. That teaches her to think highly of herself and set her standards in men higher.
Without that kind of love and support, she will feel like she has to put up with being mistreated or become easily mislead by men in her future.
Single mothers should be aware of this and pay closer attention to the company they keep. Kids monitor everything parents do and think that their parents represent all adults. They think their parents are perfect and right about everything. Their parents show them "how to be" by their actions that they model for thier kids. It's not about their intent, but rather in their kids' perception.
Single moms an also fill in the gap of an absent father by seting their own standards higer (in men). They should refuse to be mistreated, and never bitter about men. They shouldn't treat their daughters to not trust men, or that all men are the same. They should teach their daughters to keep company with men who have empathy, consideration, respect, and acceptance for them.

Here's the experience I have seen through my best friend. Her dad was killed when she was 8 years old. Since then, her mom has remarried 3 times. She has always had a hard time depending on men, yet she can't stand to not have a boyfriend. She needs the support from a man, that she's never had from a father figure. She stays in relationships too long just because these guys treat her well, not because they are actually in love.

i do no longer even decide to debate the worst subject that has ever handed off to me as a results of fact it makes me unhappy, notwithstanding it does not would desire to do with something abusive. I lost my first newborn to fetal loss of life whilst i became into 39 weeks pregnant. It does nevertheless impression me in the sense that if somebody purely asks me approximately it straight away, it makes me tear up and cry. thankfully time has healed those wounds and that i became into blessed with yet another newborn quickly thereafter. i'm sorry for what handed off to you. i comprehend that they at the instant are not close to to a similar issues, yet all of us have soreness that we would desire to attend to. I believe you that the statistics for newborn abuse are uncontrolled. I even have an relatively stable buddy who has been tormented with the aid of this and a sister-in-regulation as properly. it relatively is a topic that we see all too many times those days. So unhappy.

if you have a wonderful dad who tucked you in, took you shopping, hugged you alot, that kind of stuff, you are going to expect your boyfriends to be the same way. because it is how youve developed your opinion on men.
if your dad was rude, ignored you, abused you in any way, you are going to expect no more from a male companion. because your opinion of a man has become that.
best thing you can do is just forget your dad, and just set your own standards and dont cheat on them. figure out what traits in a guy you want, and if they dont have them, tell em to get lost. dont waste your life on someone your just settling on. spend it with someone worthy of your life.
