ensuring that your child feels loved and accepted unconditionally is of the utmost importance. this doesn't just mean telling her you love her and being supportive. you really have to be active in this regard. you must make efforts to spend lots of time with her. most parents love their children, but most fail to truly love their children. this is the best thing you can do to enable your daughter to grow into a stable and healthy woman.

unfortunately, you are mostly powerless over playground love and this is likely to be where she will procure her insecurities from. it's not any certain age that it happens at, but rather certain conditions.

if you're truly there for her when the outside world fails her she'll be okay.
