My Thoughts On Daddy Dates, WHY I Make A Big Deal Out Of Them
"Whether you realize it or not, you alone are the greatest factor in determining what type of man your daughter ends up marrying. Quite likely, she will choose someone just like you. Or, if not a man exactly like you, one with very similar tendencies and characteristics. Scary thought, isn't it?"
"More and more fathers are becoming aware of their influence and regularly dating their daughters.
The research clearly says that daddies make all the difference in the world," says Kevin Leman, national speaker and author of What a Difference Daddy Makes. "I have tremendously more impact on my daughter than my wife does."
"It’s really not rocket science.
It can cost as little as zero dollars… but the return on that investment would make investors drool all over their pin striped suits if they knew about it!
Every week I date each daughter (Monday – Lexington, Tuesday – Reagan, etc.) and the results, already, are amazing! I can’t imagine what it will be like when they are adults."
Date Your Daughter (& Other Ways to Connect)
"As daughters grow, it's common for the distance between fathers and daughters also to grow.
That was Alan's concern when he contacted us recently. But Alan has done a great thing -- he's started having regular date nights with his 17-year-old daughter. He has felt distance in their relationship the past few years as his daughter becomes busier with school functions and an active social life. He asked for some fun ideas that don't include watching TV or movies, and don't involve hashing through heavy issues."
How to Date Your Preteen Daughter
"My wife, daughter, and I were enjoying lunch today, and then a father-daughter duo came in and sat at the booth next to us. For those who know my nosey tendencies, it comes as no surprise that I was listening in on their conversation. But I was really blessed as I listened to the father talk to his preteen daughter."

"It has been my experience over time that while family activities are important to dads and children, there is nothing quite like the one-on-one activity between a dad and his son or daughter. There is a common bond of memories and experience which tend to last a long time."
Daddy Dates: Four Daughters, One Clueless Dad, and His Quest to Win Their Hearts
"I have a friend who, like Greg Wright, is the lone man in a family with a wife and four daughters. He reminds me often of how difficult it is to "swim in a sea of estrogen." In his new book Daddy Dates, Greg Wright tackles the challenge of raising daughters with warmth, humor and an immediately practical approach. Daddy Dates is a must-read for men who are trying to be great dads to girls."
Daddy Dates -"religious" book review
"Greg Wright is a motivational speaker and executive coach whose challenge is twice as tough as mine; he has 4 daughters. Wright is the author of a new book titled Daddy Dates: Four Daughters, One Clueless Dad, and His Quest to Win Their Hearts. The book showed up in my mailbox the other day and I just had to read it. This wasn’t a tough thing to do since a) it’s only 210 pages long, b) those 210 pages are quite small with a lot of them being blank, c) the book is meant to be easy-to-read and d) I know that I need help in this very subject."
Application To Date Your Daughter
"Since we are responsible for getting prospects to "apply" to become clients, I thought I would share an "Application to Date My Daughter." I don't know who originally wrote this, but it's great."
