Imran Khan: Parenting is a Privilege, Not a Duty
4 May
Summary
- Fatherhood is a privilege, not a duty, says actor.
- Co-parenting is a shared experience, not one parent's role.
- Children need emotional security and active parental involvement.
Actor Imran Khan recently discussed his approach to fatherhood and co-parenting on Parineeti Chopra's podcast. He views parenting not as a duty, but as a privilege, cherishing the time spent with his daughter, Imara Malik Khan. Khan advocates for a non-gendered perspective on raising children, seeing it as a shared responsibility between parents.
He underscored that a child's emotional security is paramount, regardless of evolving family structures. Khan believes children thrive when they feel safe and supported. His active involvement in Imara's daily life, from school to bedtime, strengthens their bond and models healthy relationships for her. Khan and his ex-wife, Avantika Malik, with whom he separated in 2019, maintain a shared custody arrangement for their daughter.
