One could argue that the current epidemic of CC-riders was caused by weak/effeminate/liberal/absent fathers.

Therefore, be the opposite. Be the firm (yet calm, well-meaning) male force in her life, and be persistent at it. Impose rules and morals on her. When she follows, praise her. Treat her, too (with your attention, not with material substitutes). When she slips, disapprove and tell her that she can do better. Once she is capable of understanding (school age, early teens), explain to her why you raised her the way you raised her. Bring her to a bar, and show her some of those empty husks of post-wall sluts (talk of life decisions, trajectories, and consequences).

Read up on developmental psychology (PM me for books, if you want), so that you know the sorts of challenges kids go though as they are growing up -- and as she struggles through said challenges, offer a guidance/ a helping hand (it has to be her challenge to overcome, though). Depending on where you live, I'd suggest you shield her from the brainwashing of advertisement companies -- do know that preteen kids are basically unable of critical thought; as a result of which, they are easy prey for advertising companies with an agenda of turning kids into stupid consumers for life. So no tablet at two years old, no watching crap TV all day unattended, etc. -- if even doable, in this day and age. Consider the kinds of friends she associates with, and the kinds of institutions she frequents, too.

Regarding books focused on raising girls, there is this one. I can't say I wholeheartedly recommend it (the author is a bit of a tradcon cuck), but the book is not that bad either. Might as well read through it and use the parts that resonate with you.

Do understand that for a daughter, you are the primary parent. You will, in one way or another, set a benchmark of expectations she will have regarding men later in life. If your relationship is positive, she will be inclined to seek out men of similar qualities like yours. You build her confidence up from the inside, she will be less inclined to seek instant gratifications with stupid consequences. Regarding stupid, this is of building that inner voice of "daddy woudn't approve of that, I understand what this would do to me... and I'm a better girl than this". However, in this day and age, this does seem like parenting on a hard mode, with the forces that be undermining masculinity everywhere.

> she isn't a boy so I can't just teach her to shoot guns and all and to be a 'man'.

Well, why not? Why can't you? Mayhaps shooting guns may not be her thing, but something similar of the sorts may not hurt, after all - to give her a sense of self-accomplishment that translates into self-worth. If this works, it'd be better than her searching for that self-worth on a strange cock later in life.

Also, tomboy-ish women can be more agreeable in relationships, as in such activities, they learn to relate to men and to actually appreciate masculinity (appreciating what men do, and recognizing that what they do can be difficult -- as opposed to taking it for granted and dehumanizing the men into their servants).
