In a video posted on Ted Talks Facebook page, Reshma Saujani - the founder and CEO of Girls Who Code, speaks about how we are raising our daughters and it really hits home.

I was raised in exactly the same way as she describes, I am sure most of us were! With my brother taking all the risks and me being far more cautious. But what effect does that have on our daughters in later life?
