Do Parents Have Different Hopes and Standards for Their Sons Than for Their Daughters?


In Pakistan there have been many studies done concerning the difference in treatment of girls and boys.

Boys seem to get preferential treatment over the girls in education and many other sexually biased situations.  The girls are expected to have a minimal education since their main goal in Pakistani life is to marry and produce children.  However, there are some Pakistani women who have become quite successful.

Boys are usually predicted as the ones with the most fluent vocabulary, but studies have shown that's its actually the girls who excel in vocabulary.

Boys are expected to find a career so that he can one day support a family.
It's all very autocratic.

Because parents treat their sons and daughters differently, it tends to cause inferior feelings in girls and superiority in the boys.  This can cause tension between siblings.  Because a girl has only the goal of being a wife and mother, her aspirations are low, sometimes causing low Self-esteem and self-doubt.

It seems like most parents concentrate their efforts in to grooming the boy for success.  This attitude can also become very challenging to a boy growing up because of the expectations.  Boys worry more about disappointing the parents than the girls do.

If your a girl, it's most likely you will learn from your mother all the challenges of being a wife and mother; All the ways to take good care of her husband.  They are not allowed as much freedom as their brothers.

In conclusion, Pakistan isn't living in the 21st century when it comes to the equality of male and female roles.  In fact, either is most of the world.

Children should, quite honestly, be treated equally no matter what the gender of the child.  Many studies show that there is alot of expectations for boys to succeed over girls.

It's time that at some point parents educate themselves on how to determine this kind of behavior so that our sons and daughters can live as equals instead of in a world of discrimination and sexist attitudes.

We need to give our children every chance at happiness.  Treating genders differently only causes distance and confusion of roles that both men and women can equally do.

Both girls and boys are intelligent and they both can be very successful at anything they desire if parents treat them like equals.  Sure, they are different because of gender, but intellectually there is a no limit to what either can do if they are taught that they have the capacity towards many accomplishments.

George Perkins Marsh’s Book "Man and Nature" (1864)

We have known about the origins of our disaster for longer than we like to imagine. More than 150 years ago, George Perkins Marsh (1801–1882) published Man and Nature; or, Physical Geography as Modified by Human Action — a study of how human action modifies the physical world, from the crust of the earth to the atmosphere. The scope of Man and Nature is vast. Beginning with chapters on “the general effects and the prospective consequences of human action upon the earth’s surface and the life which peoples it”, Marsh then proceeds to trace. -----the history of man’s industry as exerted upon Animal and Vegetable Life, upon the Woods, upon the Waters, and upon the Sands; and to these I have added a concluding chapter upon Probable and Possible Geographical Revolutions yet to be effected by the art of man. Despite the vastness of the project, Marsh’s message to readers was clear: If people do not take care of the earth, the earth will cease to take care of them. If we now find this claim ...

The brief analysis and Introduction of "Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict" (20 February 1988 – present)

  Objectives: Introduction to the conflict Impact on Regional Geopolitics of South Asia Impact on future Warfare South Asia Armenia-Azerbaijan: Why did Nagorno-Karabakh spark a conflict? Nagorno-Karabakh is part of Azerbaijan, but its population is majority Armenian. As the Soviet Union saw increasing tensions in its constituent republics in the 1980s, Nagorno-Karabakh voted to become part of Armenia - sparking a war that stopped with a ceasefire in 1994. Since then, Nagorno-Karabakh has remained part of Azerbaijan but is controlled by separatist ethnic Armenians backed by the Armenian government. Until recently, negotiations mediated by international powers had failed to deliver a peace agreement. Armenia is majority Christian while Azerbaijan is majority Muslim. Turkey has close ties to Azerbaijan, while Russia is allied with Armenia - although it also has good relations with Azerbaijan. A peace deal has been agreed between Armenia and Azerbaijan, two former Soviet Union republic...
