Raising self sufficient men

 Raising self-sufficient men in our society involves a multi-faceted approach that includes both parents and wider societal influences.Here are a few key considerations:

1- Promoting emotional intelligence:

Encourage boys to express their feelings and emotions openly,teaching them that vulnerability is not a sign of weakness.This held them develop a strong sense of self and healthy copying mechanisms.

2- Challenging gender stereotypes:

Avoid limiting boys to traditional male roles and expectations. Encourage them to explore a range of interests, including those typically associated with femininity,such as art and caregiving. This fosters a more well-rounded sense of self and respect for diverse perspectives.

3- Teaching life skills:

Equip boys with practical skills such as cooking, cleaning and basic household maintenance. This helps them become self-sufficient adults capable of taking care of themselves and their homes.

4- Foster emotional intelligence:

Encourage men to express their emotions and build healthy relationships. Teach them empathy, communication skills,and conflict resolution strategies. Encourage them to question traditional stereotypes of masculinity that discourage emotional vulnerability.

5- Teach financial literacy:

Educate boys about money management, solving,investing,and planning for the future help them understand the importance of financial independence.
