Research indicates that engaging in physical activities like walking can help fathers build closer relationships with their daughters. Lead researcher Dr. John Day highlights a societal shift towards more involved fatherhood, as women from different generational cohorts report improved emotional connections with their fathers, particularly those born in the 1980s and 1990s. While activities like swimming and cycling serve as common ground, some daughters noted that their fathers' preferences could still dictate engagement levels, particularly when competitiveness entered the picture.
Physical activity acts as a bridge for fathers and daughters, helping them form deep emotional connections and challenge the stereotype of distant dads.
Daughters have sought ways to grow closer to their dads, and physical activities provide a comforting environment for fathers to engage one-on-one.
