Dr. Meg Meeker issues fathers thirty days of challenges to help strengthen their relationships with their daughters. Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters: The 30-Day Challenge is the highly anticipated follow-up companion to the national bestseller, Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters by Dr. Meg Meeker. The 30-Day Challenge takes readers through thirty practical father-daughter activities, meant to strengthen dads in their parenting roles, while also creating honest and thriving relationships. With twenty-five years’ experience as a pediatrician, Dr. Meeker combines her expertise and wisdom with warmth and humor to make this the perfect guide for dads to take the Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters experience to the next level. The 30-Day Challenge offers practical suggestions for dads to spend uninterrupted, scheduled time with their daughters, including: • Taking her on a date, dancing, or into nature • Taking her to work or teaching her to handle money responsibly • Doing an art project or planting a garden together • Treating her mother well Reflection questions help readers examine where they are as a dad right now and where they would like to be this time next year. Checklists with important reminders help the reader commit to following through and adequately preparing for the challenges. Challenges can be adapted from the simple to the involved, depending on time availability, comfort levels, and the daughter’s age. Unlike other parenting how-to books, The 30-Day Challenge becomes a cherished handbook as dads and their girls evolve in their father and daughter roles. The 30-Day Challenge will equip dads to answer the call to become engaged and intentional fathers. “Both my girls were practically grown and gone the first time I discovered Meg Meeker’s Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters , but it still had a huge impact on how I talk to and relate with them. Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters: The 30-Day Challenge is the book I wish someone had given me the day my first daughter was born!" - Dave Ramsey , New York Times bestselling author, nationally syndicated radio show host, and father of two daughters "Meg Meeker radically changed the way I look at parenting and fatherhood. There is joy, wisdom, and truth in everything she writes, and I will be the first in line to buy each new book she shares with the world." — Jon Acuff , Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Quitter: Closing the Gap Between Your Day Job & Your Dream Job and father of two daughters “Raising four daughters while playing professional football was very demanding. Dr. Meeker is oh-so-accurate when she points out just how observant and impressionable young girls can be! Her work always inspires me to do a better job, and The 30-Day Challenge is filled with lots of good ideas. Thanks, Meg!” — Chris Godfrey , father of six, member of New York Giants Super Bowl XXI Championship Team, estate planning attorney and president of Life Athletes "Dads need help, particularly when it comes to building bonds with their daughters.

Great read!
My husband and I both read this book, and liked it so much we bought it for all of the other guys in our family who have daughters. It will really make you think...and worry a little bit! Dr. Meeker has a very interesting perspective as a pediatrician and shares a lot of information that is really scary to think about, but also offers a lot of excellent advice for raising a daughter in this crazy world!

Good Practical Tips for Dads and Daughters
Good book filled with practical tips for building a relationship with your daughter. The daily format is helpful for making regular, small, relational investments in this relationship. It really helps to buy the book that this is based on -- that book helps put the daily tips and activities in context. My only complaint is that some of the activities are aimed at younger daughters. Mine is a teen-ager and some of the suggestions wouldn't work well at her age. For dads who need help going beyond inspiration and instruction to actual action, this is the book for you.

great book. This is a good book to get ...
great book. This is a good book to get if you're worried about your future relationship with your daughter. This should be the manual they give out at the hospital with your baby girl. I bought this for my husband who's been struggling to relate to his 11 yr old & even from him skimming through it - It's worked wonders. It will change your view of how to be a strong role model & helps you to remember the man you are today will be the type of man she will seek in her future for a husband. Would you be okay with your daughter marrying a man like you? leaves you really thinking. It also helps him to not take her pre-teen struggles so personally.

greatly needed perspective on the father daughter relationship
Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters by Meg Meeker gives much needed information and guidance for the father who desires to develop a better relationship with his daughter. This is a book I wish I had read when my daughters were young. It will help the father at any stage in the parenting process, including relationships with adult daughters. The author understands men and is very supportive and helpful on important issues.

This author is amazing
One of my husbands favorite books for parenting. The author has incredible knowledge and biblically sound. Everything we’ve read from her is great and this is no exception! Tangible activities to spice up interactions with daughters.

Great Guide For Fathers
I bought this book for my husband for father's day. It has great day to day tasks a dad can implement in his own life or his daughter's life to strengthen the father/daughter bond. The chapters are short and very doable. My husband isn't one for reading, but these chapters are well laid out and easy to follow. Anything by Dr. Meg Meeker is worth reading.

Really good book that all dad's should really, especially when your girls are young. I had to go out and buy the book for some friends as it was that good.

Not that good
Not that good for divorced fathers. Very américain way of thinking. I was very disappointed by it all to be honest.

Just a summary and preachy
Like others I bought this thinking it was the main text but its not, its merely a companion guide. As a father to a 10 year old I found it useful reading and compared well to other father/daughter texts I have read. I got most of the way through the text but found myself closing and putting away the book when I was told I had to tell my daughter that God was real and I should instill this belief in my daughter. Faith is a very personal thing and I do not feel the author should be telling me what to teach my daughter. If she had said she was a person of faith and if you also identify as this then teach X, Y, Z I would have been more accepting. Sorry but I can't finish this text and will not be buying the main text. Your need to try and indoctrinate others to follow your own beliefs have diminished any positive benefits I had identified with in your writing.
