Talk with Her: A Dad's Essential Guide to Raising Healthy, Confident, and Capable Daughters - Paperback

by Kimberly Wolf (Author)

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
