who is a boy and who is a girl

A Boy refers to a young male child. Boys often range in age from infancy to early adolescence, with an average age of six to twelve years. Boys often experience a variety of developmental changes throughout this time, which includes physical, cognitive, and emotional growth. Boys usually get more freedom, autonomy, and self-awareness as they grow and mature.

They also begin to investigate their own identities and learn about the world around them on their own. As a boy child, they should be taught so many things about all ice in general because a time will come, when they will have to go leave on their own to face life, with what is being learned, they can handle some parts of life their own.

               **While**

A girl is a young female child. Like boys, girls typically range in age from infancy to early adolescence, and are generally seen as being between the ages of 6 and 12. Girls go through many of the same developmental changes as boys, but may also experience some unique developmental milestones. Some Girls may begin puberty earlier than boys, and their emotional development may also be slightly different. Girls are so fragile and needs to be handled with care and so much love. They need to always be heard and listened to at all time.

Should boys and girls be raised in the exact same way?

There are variety of factors to be considered in regards to this question. Regardless,there are some general human needs And experience that both boys and girls need while growing up such as love, support, guidance and structure and the need for sense of belonging. Although boys and girls have different developmental needs and experiences so it is very important to be sensitive/pay attention to these differences while raising them. It is also important to tailor a child's upbringing to their individual needs regardless of their gender.

  • Girls have some specific developmental needs that parents should consider when raising them and it is advised not to be over looked. First, girls need to feel loved and accepted, just like any child. Girls will always need more emotional support and reassurance as they navigate the challenges of growing up. Girls are also more prone to deal with body image and self-esteem difficulties, so parents should be mindful of these requirements. We need to encourage girls to express themselves and be confident in their own abilities.

While growing up as a girl child, there are things my parents did for me that makes me feel safe and never gave me the ground to misbehave. My mom would go to the market, buy me clothes of different styles shoes and others. They give me money when I ask. I eat whatever I like. They bought me a phone when I was Upto age and these gave me a sense of security. When I grew up and began to find my path, I realized I can't be deceived by boys with materials things as my parents can always provide anything any boy think they can provide for me.

My parents took me to the best school where I was thought so many things that I am living on right now. As a girl child there are many benefits I got that my brothers didn't get. I was riased according to my need as a girl child and all thanks to my parents.

  • Boys while it is important to provide a boy with thesame love that is given to a girl child there are other way to raise a male child that a female child can't be raised. When raising a male child, they need reassurance, guidance and sense of leadership. It is important to know that boys are more kinetic than girls. It is also important to give them opportunity to develop sense of identity and independence. Incucate into them the sense of responsibility.

Every boy should be encouraged to be physically active and to also engaged in healthy competition wherever he found himself. They should be raised in a way that they can be respectful and express their emotions in a healthy way too. They should learn to handle conflict and control their anger. They should be taught to explore their own interest and passions. Every body should should be given the opportunity to to succeed and feel competent in all ramifications.

In conclusion
Let every love given be equal and don't favouritise any child. It reduces a child self esteem.

We must guide children on the right path since many of them tend to be independent and that on the one hand is very good because they have the ability to do things on their own, to experience things that are visible for the first time.

This is how it is, a friend, as children grow, they need the support of their parents and, above all, a good education. This does not mean that it is with punishments, but by giving affection and the necessary affection, it begins, so that they feel trust in their parents.

Punishment does not lead to anything, we must value values ​​so that they walk where they should and act in a good way, girls will always need the affection and love of their parents since that greatly influences their growth.

Wow
This is beautiful.
But I personally believe that every child should be raised in a way that suits their dreams. There will be some similarities in how a female child and a male child should be raised and there will be differences too

But in all it should be what is better for their future and the society.

Thank you so much for this beautiful comment, it's to enticing to read.

Even though we show love and care to our children, It is quite obvious that boys and girls are raised differently because of environmental/societal factors. A girl child is delicate and should be well taken care of, that is why the cost of taking care of a female child is more costlier than the male this doesn't mean we should care for our boys too, but it obvious anyways.

You are not easily enticed by gift from big boys in your locality because of the care you parent rendered to you at a tender age.

Societal has made it obvious the fact that boys must struggle, the question is should we always struggle. Boys should be pampered too, but the struggle to survive we not always let us settle for the less in fulfillment of the scripture sayings "Of the ground shall he till to survive"

Thanks for inviting, I'll try to drop my entry soon. Goodluck on the contest.

This part of your comment made me emotional 😭

Every boy child deserves to be pampered as a girl child. In the part of the world where we found ourselves now, bother a girl and boy child now struggles and we now create the life we desire for ourselves.

There are so many things we didn't get while growing up and we made it a challenge to achieve them on our own. So both boys and girls need love, pamper and support from their parents.

No child Is too special than another.

Thank you so much for this beautiful comment, it means alot

Hello dear @blessingogah-1, you have said the most important thing that is needed to raise boys and girls, it is the love that should be given to them equally, without preferences. The same for each gender based on the values ​​and principles that we instill in them. Greetings.

Children have diverse ways they are taught depending on the teacher. The both needs discipline but accountable in a different manner. That's why the bible says that we should train up a child in such a way that tomorrow he or she will not depart from the discipline.

Sí creo que la crianza de un niño y de una niña deben ser diferente desde la infancia misma. Son tantas cosas que anatómicamente y fisiológicamente nos diferencian que por tanto la diferencia entre ellos es notable.

Éxito en su publicación.
