How father and daughter bonds shape views of family and relationships
While speaking to Briefly News, psychologist and relationship expert Penny Holburn shared how father and daughter bonds shape views of family and relationships. Penny said individuals learn about relationships from the first relationship they experience – which is their family in most cases.
"Under seven years old, we are very susceptible to what goes on around us, and young children observe and take in information like a sponge. We also tend not to challenge what we see as to whether it is right or wrong when we are that young. So, whatever the father-daughter bond is, it is going to be how the children in the family perceive fathers and daughters should behave. This becomes the norm in the children’s minds," she said.
The psychologist expressed that people learn by what they see, whether in their homes or surroundings.
"This is how people act, and so they expect such a bond and the behaviour accompanying it. If the bond is unhealthy, the family may still perceive that this is how relationships should be unless they become aware of what is happening. Our perception of roles is usually unconscious to us."
Penny went on to add:
"If we want to change what we see as a problem, we need to become consciously aware of what we experienced and understand and learn a better way to act. If the bond is good, then that lays the framework for the children to experience healthy relationships in their adult lives."
