Being a girl dad

from Dear Daughter Hosted by BBC World Service

Ajit, a dad from India, tells Namulanta about realising just how tough the world can be for his daughters as they grow up in a male dominated society. He’s funny, honest and totally unfiltered as he talks about being on a huge learning curve as a ‘girl dad’, and admits that parenting is far harder than any management job he’s ever had. And the conversation ends with a very emotional moment, as Ajit reveals how he discovered what truly matters in his life.
