Preeti Rana: Making Her Opinions Matter
Eighteen-year-old Preeti Rana, says, “ My father’s friend would visit our home regularly. We sisters found him offensive as he would leer at us and come visiting us when none of the elders or parents were at home. One day, I told my father about him. He, however, refused to believe me. But when he returned home early one day and found his friend at home, it struck him that we were telling the truth. He rebuked his friend and asked him to stop visiting our home. More important, now my father listens to us and hears us out.”
