'The most complex and unexplored relationship in a woman's life is with her father. If their bond is close, she is referred to as "Daddy's little girl." As cute as that may sound in childhood, a "father's daughter" pays a high price for her favored status....By identifying solely with her father, her development as a woman is arrested in daughterhood.'
