Who Is Teaching Our Boys to Become Men?

The Dad Project Live

Aaron Dale and Naroop Jhooti, The Dad Project live

About This Event

Boys don't become good men by accident.

They're shaped by what they see. By who leads them. By the conversations we avoid, and the ones we finally decide to have.

On 24 June, three days after Father's Day, Naroop Jhooti and Aaron Dale had one of those conversations, live, in front of an audience at Maslow's in Fitzrovia.

Aaron grew up in London with his father living nearby, with another family. He saw him in secret, unreliably, or not at all. When Aaron became a father himself, he decided the cycle would stop with him.

On the night, he talked about the things men rarely admit to. The guilt. The grief. The logistics of loving your kids across two homes. And what it actually takes to raise boys who grow into men worth knowing.

Then the room had its say.

If you weren't there this time, the next one is on the events page.

You don't need to be a dad to be here.
