However, Jason conceded that there are a lot of positives that come with being a girl dad — especially when it comes to the father-daughter bond.
“I obviously have not had a son, but there is something about a daughter in the way I think as a dad, you feel an extra amount probably of protection and love toward that child,” he explained.
