Movie about father falsely accused of molesting daughter

That's not it. It's definitely the daughter, and also this is an English language movie...

Wow, this is very close! The little girl looks almost identical to how I remember her from the movie.

However, there are some key differences which make me think that it can't be it. The biggest one being that the toilet-shower gag is missing, and that's a scene I remember very vividly from the movie.

The other thing is that he is definitely the girl's father, not a boyfriend or step-father. The situation is basically the reverse of this movie - he's a single dad who's just starting to date a little bit, and the ex-wife makes the accusation against him because she wants full custody.

The touching incident is also described a lot differently - in this movie, she just kind of barges into the shower, touches him, then runs off. Strange incident, but still sounds like it could be an innocent little kid thing. He definitely does not ALLOW her to touch him, and I defs remember her being described as saying the line "I know what this is for" before running off. If anything, that line may have a sinister connotation, as it may suggest that SOMEONE ELSE had sexually abused her - but I have no idea, I don't remember how the movie concluded.

Finally, the father definitely wasn't an Irishman - I would have remembered an Irish accent. He was American.

So yeah, it's a really good guess, and I'm surprised that such a similar movie even exists - but it's not it.

It honestly sounds like a Lifetime movie. Are you sure the girls accusations are false? I know in Liar,Liar the girl is told she's lying but it turns out to be true.
