Dear Daddy, Where You At?: The Impact of An Absent Father - Paperback
by Frances E. Shipman (Author)
My dad did not even want to claim me as his child because he wasn't sure if my mom had been sleeping with another guy. Without realizing it, at that time he was already planting a seed of abandonment inside of me. Little did he know his feelings of broken trust in his relationship with my mothers were seeping inside of me in the womb. This is what caused my mother's feelings of insecurity about herself and their situation.
I learned from my dad that I was not good enough, that I was not worthy, and that I was a secret. He taught me that I was second best, and I was not valuable. Why else would my dad keep me hidden from everyone he knew? A father should be the first man that a girl loves. He will be the first man to impact his daughter's ability to love, trust and relate well to the males in her life. The impact that a father has on his daughter's life is detrimental to the development of her life as a child, teenager, and well into her adult life. This book shares experiences of women in various age groups of how an absent father impacted their childhood and adult lives. Some experienced a journey of healing and restoration, while others are still working through their pain.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
