I bought this book thinking it might give me some advice on how to raise my daughter, being a first time father. Unfortunately, it did nothing for me. The author fills your head with negative and doomsday stories about girls she saw as a MD and does not offer any positive side to anything. I finished about 3 chapters before I, literally, threw this book across the room. It angered me more than anything else.The author doesn't have any children of her own, and seems to think she can preach to the reader how a strong father can bring up a strong daughter. The author also provides about 90% common sense ideals along with 10% sob stories of girls she saw as an MD. Honestly, none of her information helped me or changed the way I'm raising my daughter. As an intelligent and strong adult and father, I think I had a better idea of how to bring up a strong daughter before I opened this book.Stay away from this book, unless you enjoy becoming enraged before you go to sleep at night.
