Why is it also necessary to teach boys emotional care skills?

Correct answer: So care is not considered only women responsibility

The direct answer is A: boys should learn emotional care so care is not treated as only a woman’s responsibility. Emotional care means listening, showing concern, comforting someone, understanding feelings, and helping during difficulty. These are human and life skills, not skills belonging to one gender. Step by step, if only girls are taught care, society may wrongly expect women to do all caring work. If boys also learn it, family duties can be shared more fairly, communication can improve, and boys can become supportive family members and responsible citizens. Option A is correct because it supports equality and shared responsibility. Option B is wrong because teaching boys care does not stop girls’ education; equal sharing may actually help girls continue studying. Option C is wrong because emotional care usually improves, rather than reduces, family communication. Option D is wrong because care skills do not reduce work opportunities; they add useful personal and social abilities. The exam cue is gender socialization: children of every gender should learn both caring and productive skills.
