FATHERLESS DAUGHTER SYNDROME

 "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.

At the age of 5, I inherited some of the traits from father absence and abandonment. At the age of 13 which was in 1989, my father remarried.

As a high school student from 1991 - 1993, I was always surrounded by men and had numerous opportunities where I was able to share my skills and talents in the area of the arts in schools and galleries.

As an adult, I lost several of my god fathers due to heart attack which include Doc Barnett Williams and Tony Duncanson.

One of the reasons why I work with Esther Productions, Inc since 2004, is 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.

If you have not experienced this issue, please do not judge others that have.
