Fathers, this writing is on behalf of your daughters who need you desperately. These words are not meant to blame, hurt, or point fingers, but to rattle you into responsiveness, to shake you into action. We hurting daughters are a national dilemma. You won't hear about us on the six o'clock news, but we are here.
We are living under your roof, eating from the same dinner table as you, pouring from the same milk carton. We are spending at least eighteen years, or 6,570 days with you at home. We pass you in the hall and wonder why we aren't enough to catch your eye. We wonder what on earth a television set, a newspaper, has that we don't. We are curious why you don't get fired up for your daughters like you do the big game.
We are attuned to the fact you don't seem very interested in our words, our feelings, our deepest convictions and doubts. We sob on the inside.
