TV host Nida Yasir has revealed that her husband Yasir Nawaz insisted their daughter become a doctor because he could not become one himself. She said a counselor eventually changed his mind.
“My husband clung to the idea that my daughter would become a doctor. He got her the same subjects in O Levels, because he could not become a doctor himself, so this was his wish,” she said on her morning show.
Yasir said she could not change his mind herself, so she took him to a counselor. “I arranged a counselor and took my husband to the counselor. I was a friendly mother, but I had to convince my husband, who was not listening to me or the children. So I took him to the counselor,” she recalled.
She said the counselor walked Nawaz through his research and wrote down each point. That convinced him.
