ROLE OF PARENTAL ATTITUDE TOWARDS GIRLS’ EDUCATION

Education

This study investigated the role of parental attitude towards girls’ education. Now-a-days, girls’ education is drawing attention of our government, parents and educationists. According to the census report of India Government, the percentage of educated women is very low in our country comparatively than men. So our country is suffering from the oppression of women. One of the main reasons for the lack of girls’ education in India is the male-dominated society. Even though the country is making progress, the belief that women belong in the home is still widely held. Changes in a demographic profile of nation depend largely on attitude and behaviour of individual. Gender in equality is a very serious issue in the Asian nation, which is why 10 million female babies have been aborted over the past 20 years. A son’s education is given more importance because it is thought that daughters will eventually get married and live with their husband, so many believe that a girl’s education is not of much help directly to her family. These causes should be found and proper solutions should be worked but so that all women receive education.
