52 Things Daughters Need From Their Dads
What Fathers Can Do to Build a Lasting Relationship
Most dads love their daughters, but they’re uncertain how they can show that love in a way their daughters understand…or figure out what their girls really need from them.
Jay Payleitner has given thousands of dads great, man-friendly advice in his bestselling 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad. Now Jay guides his readers into what is unexplored territory for many of them―girl land―giving them ways to…
- do things with their daughters, not just for them
- lecture less and listen more
- be on the lookout for “hero moments” and take advantage of them
- realize that their daughters are females…and tailor their actions and responses accordingly
- give their daughters a positive view of the male sex
Dads will feel respected and encouraged―not made to feel guilty―and they’ll gain confidence to initiate activities that build lifelong positives into their girls. Great gift or men’s group resource.

Praise for 52 Things Daughters Need From Their Dads
"This book is not only practical and incredibly insightful, but this is stuff I can immediately incorporate in relating to my three daughters. Jay Payleitner has done a wonderful job making this a go-to book for dads of daughters. Hint: Moms, buy this book for your husband!"
- Jim Burns, president of HomeWord and author of Teenology and Confident Parenting"In easy-to-swallow and to-the-point snippets, Jay gives dads fantastic advice. This is a great tool for any father who wants to be intentional about raising whole and healthy children in a culture that makes that task difficult. I love his approachable writing voice and the alarming but truthful cultural research you'll find in this book."
- Dannah Gresh, author of Six Ways to Keep the "Little" in Your Girl and Six Ways to Keep the "Good" in Your Boy"Every dad wants his daughter to grow up with dignity, self-respect, grace, humility, virtue and significance. These attributes do not come overnight. Jay's approach helps dads with the development of these desirable character traits from early childhood through walking them down the aisle. This man-of-God approach will play a major role in our daughters selecting a man of God for a husband."
- Darrel Billups, executive director of the National Coalition of Ministries to Men"Although raising a daughter seems foreign and frightening to many men, we play a huge role in our little girls' lives. In this book, my friend Jay provides dads with a wealth of insights and practical ideas that will help them invest wisely in their daughters' lives. Maybe best of all, he does it in a way that allows dads to smile and get rid of the fright. He instills confidence that you can have a close and difference-making relationship with your daughter."
- Carey Casey, CEO of The National Center for Fathering, radio host of Today's Father, and author of Championship Fathering
