No matter how minor or major the need to improve things, he should take the first step to initiate contact, to try again, to ease tensions, to apologize, or to make a change for the good.; Yet, despite all the reasons for dad to "go first", that often doesn't work. In "Embracing Your Father", psychologist Linda Nielsen shows women how they can transform their relationship with their father if they are willing to be the adult who does the emotional embracing, not the silent, angry, sad, hurt or sullen little girl waiting for her daddy to embrace her.; Based on her "Father and Daughters" course, Nielsen uses quizzes, worksheets and activities, encouraging daughters to share more of themselves with their fathers and fathers to share more of themselves with their daughters. Readers will learn how to: examine your own beliefs and expectations regarding your relationship with your father; stop seeing your father as a wallet and to cultivate your own self-reliance; talk to your father without pretending, deceiving, clamming up or engaging
