Gender Roles

I think for a boy or girl to have a father or mother like figure in their life is very important. For a son not to have a father will effect him later in his life. The same with a a daughter. A boy needs and adult male to help him with his problems throughtout his life. A girl wouldent be able to help a boy learn how to play sports and do guy things. I no that I wouldent want to have my mom take me out to play football and go fishing. A girl likes to go shopping and i wouldent wanna go shoping all day. Thats boring.Either i think all adults are important in all childrens lifes.
