How To Raise The Boys : Teach Them To #ShareTheLoad
I often keep hearing a lot about how to raise our girls. How to teach them to be safe, to stand up for what they want, to empower them and let them achieve more.
.
But I rarely hear anyone talking about how to raise boys. I worry about how our sons will treat girls.
.
So, here's what I teach my son and show him through example, every single day.
.
I teach him that household work is not just a woman's job. Cooking, laundry, washing utensils, cleaning and much more is something which he needs to learn. It's ok if he is not perfect at any of them but atleast he can make efforts to help completing these daily routine work.

There can be days in life when he might have to living on his own, do his laundry and cook if he feels hungry at night. He might want to impress his partner with a meal cooked by his own hands.
These days schools are also including these activities in curriculum so that such habits can be developed right from the childhood but the basic education needs to start at home.

Are you teaching your sons what you’re teaching your daughters? Teach your sons to #ShareTheLoad.

Ariel believes in sharing the load and help in removal of tough stains in just one wash because with Ariel #ToughIsEasy.
Ariel claims to be the expert when it comes to stain removal. So, for my family, it has been just like an active member which makes my life easier by sharing the load.

I pledge to #ShareTheLoad in household chores in association with Ariel and BlogAdda. You too can join hands with me !!

Absolutely the right approach, when girls are taught that they are no lesser than the boys, the boys should be taught to share the load of the women too.
ReplyDeleteGood to know that someone is taking initiative. We all need to teach boys about the Share the load.
