1 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:04,880 S1: Doctor Gary Chapman with a Love Language Minute. 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,639 S2: A few years ago, I teamed up with Doctor Ross Campbell, 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,559 S2: a psychiatrist whom I greatly admire, and I wrote a 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,240 S2: book called The Five Love Languages of Children. In that book, 5 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,280 S2: Doctor Campbell made the point that during the pre-adolescent stage, 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,759 S2: girls have a particular need for expressions of love from 7 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:27,400 S2: their fathers. At the same time, fathers often withdraw from 8 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:31,000 S2: hugging and kissing their daughters, feeling it's inappropriate at this stage. 9 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,800 S2: In reality, the daughter needs the hugs and kisses of 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,280 S2: her father, and if he withdraws, she will likely seek 11 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,840 S2: physical touch from another male and often in an unwholesome manner. Certainly, 12 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,320 S2: there is no place for sexual exploitation, but your daughter 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,440 S2: deeply needs your loving and affirming touches. 14 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,480 S1: Doctor Gary Chapman is the author of the Five Love Languages. 15 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,520 S1: For more, visit five Love Languages.
