Dear Daughter is back!

الوصف

Namulanta Kombo is collecting letters of advice from around the world, to create a handbook for life for her daughter Koko – and daughters everywhere. This season, Namulanta speaks to Brenda and Kielah from Canada, who tell her about the extraordinary and life-saving decision Kielah made for her mum. Ajit from India reflects on the moment he realised just how challenging it is for his daughters to grow up in a male-dominated society. She also meets Bella, who lives in Dubai, and is raising her daughter born with global development delay. She shares how she’s had to redefine her expectations of parenthood. Namulanta welcomes her first-ever guest from Japan as Tamaki describes her daughter’s Seijin no Hi (Coming of Age Day). In 2010, Ann from Florida, USA was shot and killed by her boyfriend. Ann’s mother, Kate, shares an astonishing and deeply moving letter to her daughter. This series, we’ll even hear some ‘Dear Son’ letters, and we’ll be catching up with some of our guests from previous seasons. Expect thoughtful conversations, brilliant advice, laughter, wisdom and tears. And we’d love to hear from you! Send us your letter for your daughter, or a daughter figure in your life…or, for this season, a son! Email deardaughter@bbc.co.uk or visit www.bbcworldservice.com/deardaughter to find out more.
