Salaam,

I have recently found out that the baby me and my wife are expecting is going to be a girl. And all of a sudden the prospect of having a baby has become even more burdonsome. It's as if I feel the task of raising a daughter will be much harder than raising a boy. I have immediately decided, perhaps as a coping mechanism, that I will do all I can to help our daughter become a doctor and not to get her married off for as long as we can.

I have all sorts of worries about how I can be a good father and ensure that my daughter has a good upbringing. I would like to ask forum members, especcially the sisters, what they think makes a good father-daughter relationship. I would like to know what I can do to be a good father to my daughter.

Thankyou.
