An umbrella offers protection and covering from the outside elements. An umbrella shields one from what you don't want to experience. Dads can picture themselves as an umbrella over their daughters as they grow up. A dad's role is to protect, cover and shield his daughter from unwanted and outside elements. My prayer is that the reader would stand above the rest in their parenting efforts. Be the kind of dad that rises to the challenge and embraces the battle. This book examines the tumultuous culture that girls are growing up in and will help dads begin to understand their role in the battle. There are firsthand testimonies from quality young women who will report what their fathers did that cultivated a close father/daughter relationship. In addition, you will hear from dads who worked hard at being great fathers and learn by their example. I will share personal experiences that have shaped my parenting and provided me with the insight, conviction and motivation I needed to be the right kind of dad for my daughter. God bless you in the sacred task of raising a daughter. I pray this book will empower you in the process. Alan Smyth
