Well if you tried to be a good father that has to count for something... there are alot of men that don't even try. P.S.Daughters know when Daddy loves them. Without a doubt they do.

Tell them you love them. It is unlikely you heard this from your own father. Certainly your unfulfilled needs as a youngster made you strive to be for your daughters, all that you desired from your own father. Let go of guilt and shame that are not yours. You are not your father. Your children were not raised by your father. Just tell them the pain you felt as a youth has shaped who you are as a parent. They will understand.

The fact that you worry about this shows that you are a good father. they love you whether you know it or not. Just remember to let them know you love them everyday. Do this and they will love and remember you forever. stay strong

My father and fiance both had awful fathers. They are the two most amazing men I've ever known in my life. I don't doubt that you are loved

I once had a dream where I was standing between my divorced birth parents. My father was trying to lure me to him with gifts and money. All my mother could offer was a big hot bowl of oatmeal with brown sugar. In my dream I took my mother in the arms and shared my meal with her. Don't know why I had to share that, but your secret reminds me of it. If you love them truly, then they will know it. Don't worry.

My father had terrible parents and a nightmarish upbringing, but he is a beautiful person and a phenomenal daddy. He is my hero, because he overcame the abuse and broke the cycle, and is a great man. I love you, Dad! I'm sure that your daughters respect and love you, too.

Well my father tried to be a good father too. He didn't succeed, but at least he did his best. He wasn't really involved in my life, but I always knew he loved me. My mother was a good mother in certain ways and was more involved in my life, but I always questioned her love for me. Why don't you speak to your daughters about this?
