Dear MEL Topic Readers,
This is what happens when gender roles are forced on kids
Either a boy or a girl, babies are usually babies. They do the same things and act in the same way mostly. When they become toddlers, both boys and girls become active, though boys are more powerful as they develop macules. When they become children, boys and girls tend to do different things and do things differently. For example, types of toys they play with, colors of things they paint or use, and clothes they wear are usually designed for boys and girls respectively. Then when they reach puberty, girls usually start changing earlier than boys, they tend to, or often are taught to by tradition, keep some distance from each other. All these changes and behavioral differences seem to occur quite naturally and gradually within their respective society. In other words, boys and girls have or are expected to have, physical functions to work and social roles to play once they reach their adolescence.
In the next two topic readings, you’ll also learn very different roles and expectations women have in two distinctively different cultures.
Enjoy reading and learning how children change as they grow.
