What advice would you give your daughters?

Always make sure you can be financially independent.

Who you marry will make the biggest difference to your quality of life.

Trust your gut instinct.

Don't be afraid to walk away.

I will never say that a boy is being nasty to her "because he fancies her". If a boy is being nasty he is an arsehole and needs avoiding.

Encourage her to play, explore and to make mistakes. Enable her to 'forgive' her own mistakes - that's how she'll learn and build resilience .
Talk with her, listen and both police and limit her online activities.

'Don't buy women's magazines' is excellent advice.

Think defensively. Be prepared for sexism and look for ways round it rather than letting it stop you doing what you want. (I have already told her about Xenia setting up her own law firm rather than putting up with sexism in an existing firm.)

I will be encouraging my dd to screenshot everything and always be aware that anything she is putting online might be shared widely or be used in evidence against her.

Oh and yes about not encouraging them to show affection they don't feel. My mum was constantly telling me to smile and accusing me of looking unfriendly. Women are so expected to be nice and hide their own feelings to put everyone else at ease -which is clearly not good for boundaries.

It's for when they're older, but I remember from about 12 onwards being dragged in by teen magazines and utterly buying into this idea that I needed to look a certain way and buy certain make up and hair products. With hindsight, I wish my mum had gently critiqued it -pointed out that boys aren't expected to spend a fortune on cosmetics and clothes and hours doing their hair, etc. and that all this is actually a a way of keeping girls and women in their place. Athat age, I was aware of sexism but I just didn't have the insight to realise that these magazines, masquerading as friends, were just as sexist and damaging.

Oh my god yes about letting them talk loudly!

Value their opinion. Don’t encourage them to show affection just because it’s family etc. Teach them to speak up when they are not happy with a situation. Teach them that they can do anything they set their mind to...I could go on but you sound like you’re making a good start.

Sounds like a great start - specially praising them for who they are and what they try hard to do, rather than what they look like.

Encourage them to do physical stuff - climb trees, throw balls around, get muddy. Let them do it in princess dresses if they want to - be relaxed about those princess dresses getting muddy and torn. Let them do the stuff that scares you, like climb that bit higher up the tree than you're quite comfortable with (obviously intervene if it's seriously scary, but give them space to explore their physical limits).

Encourage them to set and maintain their own boundaries. Think carefully about how you teach them to behave round others - are you encouraging them to think about others in a context of mutual respect or are you praising compliance? (I think this one is a really hard line to get right.)

Let them talk loudly! (Sounds like a small thing, but I still remember a primary teacher when I was about 7 or 8 saying I roared in class - I became very quiet after that for a while.)

Let them trust their instincts - if someone makes them uncomfortable, they are allowed to move away from that person.

Choice (genuine choice) is about the most valuable thing you can have. Maximise yours.
