“Somehow we have been taught to believe that the experiences of girls and women are not important in the study and understanding ofhuman behavior. If we know men, then we know all of humankind. These prevalent cultural attitudes totally deny the uniqueness of the female experience, limiting the development of girls and women and depriving a needy world of the gifts, talents, and resources our daughters have to offer.” IfsKnowsMenWorldBelieveHas BeensImportantGirlUnderstandingAttitudeStudyTalentTaughtDevelopmentOffersBehaviorDaughterResourcesFemaleDenyHumankindUniquenessKnow MeHuman BehaviorNeedyOur DaughterDepriving Book:Raising a Daughter: Parents and the Awakening of a Healthy Woman Source: Raising a Daughter: Parents and the Awakening of a Healthy Woman

The innocent joy of childhood, the devotedness of a wife, the self sacrificing service of a daughter--none of these have an earthly market. To reduce everything to the dirty scales of economic values is to forget that some gifts, like Mary's, are so precious that the heart that offers them will be praised as long as time endures.” HeartLongSelfJoyValuesForgetWifeSacrificeEconomicChildhoodOffersDaughterEndureScalesInnocentDirtyMaryPricelessEconomic ValueJoys Of Childhood Author:Fulton J.
