GENDER INEQUALITY Gender Bias in Parenting

Boy V/S Girl

A Boy Child or a Girl Child have been treated differently since ages. A desire of having a 'Son' rather than a 'Daughter' is still there in most parts of the country.Does it really matter for you? Why do you think our society has this preference for having Son rather than Daughter?

it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl.
but if you notice our mythological stories, the boys have enjoyed all the benefits. When you do namaste, the elders say putra bati bhavah...not putri bati bhavah...
probably that time they were/are thinking a son only do all the rituals when you die..not a girl..

But now the mindset is changing gradually and people are accepting that whether it's a boy or girl it doesn't matter, they should be a good human.
