"Since childhood, fathers have a critical impact
on their daughters’ lives as they are both their first guides to the
outside world and their first reflections of themselves, symbol of
recognition of their own value. A healthy and uninterrupted relationship
between a father and a daughter greatly helps to create a positive
self-image and therefore will have a positive influence on her
aspirations and relationships. When this relationship is suddenly broken
for some reason, the daughter’s cycle of identity development is also
interrupted. Adolescence and preadolescence are critical times where
young women build themselves: their body change, they make a transition
from girls to young women, and in this transition, the father’s role is
important. " - Source:

the age of 5, I inherited some of the traits from father absence and

As
a high school student from 1991 - 1993, I was always surrounded by men

because it gives me the opportunity to touch other girls and women
through my own personal and professional style in the area of arts and
education.
