 "Why would I need a dad? Dads are out. Two of my friends have got them and they just shout and stress all the time. What s the point in having a dad?" Aina Westlye is the ultimate contemporary urban teenager. Cool, sassy and incredibly confident, Aina has never met her dad. Doesn t even have a photo. But no sympathy, please. Aina is happy with her dadless life. Over her nineteen years she s formed the opinion that dads are simply unnecessary. Aina tests her theory that you don t need a dad. She meets a selection of dads to find out what they re for, starting with a trip to the Home Counties for Sunday lunch with a  perfect  dad and his family. She takes on George, who infuriates Aina by labelling her dangerous because she challenges the traditional family status quo. In her quest Aina also visits a Christian Great Dads conference and asks a speaker "do you think I need a dad?"
