For young females :

Your relationship to your father supports you to create healthy relationships with other men in your life.

If treasured by your father you feel valued as a female. “One theme I see is that I don’t have a father who has been a part of my life. I’ve only recently been willing to have pain about that. Because of his absence, there was no father who could say, “I see you, you are my daughter.”

I am seeing that in my relationships with guys I have a feeling of not being recognised. I am not standing as a victim because of this. It brings me to the questions that I need to be asking about men and women. So I am thankful for that as part of my biography and I know that’s a big part of the questions and the work that I bring.” – Rachel (16) USA.

It’s never too late to change your relationship to your father.

Adolescence gives you an opportunity to do that.

Some teenagers have never known what their dad looks like.
