Glenn Sacks writes and speaks often about men's issues and fathers' issues. In 'Daughters love to boast how strict their dads are...this allows them to ‘show off’ how much their fathers love them' Glen writes about Dr. Meg Meeker's book Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters. He quotes from Dr. Meeker:
"Let me tell you a secret about daughters of all ages. [Daughters] love to boast about how tough their dads are—not just physically, but how strict and demanding they are. Why? Because this allows daughters to ‘show off’ how much their fathers love them."
Sounds like an interesting book.

I hope they learn that male dominance doesn't equal male love before they start seeking a mate. If it's true at all of course.
Many things in life need a balance. Parents, fathers and mothers, need to be firm, but not too controlling.
Our goal is to teach our children to be close to the balance.
