Why Do Dads Spoil Their Daughters?

It is very common for most people to believe that Dads spoil their daughters. One of the reasons for this is because there is evidence on social media. You see it all of the time. A girl graduates from high school or university and she gets a shiny new vehicle from her parents. And a lot of time, it’s the Dad that is highlighted. This brings up a very compelling question that a lot of people ask.

Why do dads spoil their daughters? Dads spoil their daughters because they want to convey to their daughter that they should always be treated like gold. It is a Dad’s way of letting his daughter know that her current or future partner should make her a priority in their life.

Father-Daughter Relationship

As a father to one daughter, I can confirm that the relationship between a father and daughter is very special. Especially for someone like myself that genuinely respects women and firmly believes that women should be treated like princesses. Any father that I have crossed paths with since becoming a Dad tends to share the same perspective. We want to make sure that our daughter has everything that we never had growing up. 

One way a Dad spoils his daughter

The most common way that Dads spoil their daughters is by buying them things. Typically, a daughter will ask their Dad if he can buy them a specific item and in most cases the Dad will buy it for them. While this is not necessarily the best way to react when a daughter wants something, this is typically the result. This is not to say that every Dad buys everything that a daughter wants. However, buying stuff is one way that a Dad spoils his daughter.

Build trust with spouse

Dads really do their best to make everyone in their life happy. And fathers also want to convey to their partner or spouse that they can be an exceptional Dad too. When a Dad spoils a daughter, it can sometimes be a way for the Dad to prove to his spouse that he highly values his daughter. He wants to send a message to the partner or spouse that whatever their daughter needs, he will go out of his way to make it happen. These emotions come from a genuine place and are in an effort to gain and build trust with not only the daughter but with the spouse or partner too. 

Daughters vs Sons

As a Dad to both a daughter and a son, I felt compelled to address the fact that a lot of people are of the opinion that Dads spoil their daughters more than they spoil their sons. Based on my experience this is not the case. I spoil both my daughter and my son. 

I have also found this to be true amongst other fathers that I personally know. The general consensus is that we as parents truly want to give our kids the things we never had when we were young. And this can sometimes lead to spoiling them with love, affection and things.
