Embracing Identity: How to Support Your Daughter’s Name Change
Last week, we discussed the pressures your daughter faces—from societal expectations and educational stress to hormonal changes and the patriarchy’s impact—and how empathy, communication, and quality time can transform your relationship from conflict to connection.
Today, we’re addressing a situation many parents might encounter: “My daughter says she wants to be called by a different name. What do I do?”
Hearing your daughter wants to be called by a different name can be surprising and evoke a range of emotions. It’s essential to approach this with openness, empathy, and support. Your response can significantly impact her confidence and your relationship. Let’s explore why she might want this change and how you can navigate it with love and understanding.
