Recently, I met a sophomore girl who studies in Tai'an and spends her holidays in Jinan. Her story shocked me deeply, and her family environment is too extreme. After her parents gave birth to a younger brother, they directly cut off her living expenses. This girl is facing tremendous pressure, and the high tuition and living expenses are a huge burden on her.
This phenomenon of preferring boys over girls exists everywhere, and many girls from such families have come to us. As this girl said, this is an old and common problem, but when it happens to herself, it becomes an insurmountable obstacle. Her story makes me think that the idea of preferring boys is deeply rooted and affects countless families, especially the lives and futures of girls.
I want to ask, why is the idea of preferring boys still prevalent? Why are girls' lives and values ignored? Why do parents think that having a boy will bring a better future? These questions are worth our deep consideration. At the same time, I also want to call on everyone to pay attention to these neglected girls, give them support and help, and let them have a better life and future.
This girl's story is just the tip of the iceberg, and many more girls are struggling. We need to change the idea of preferring boys, and we need to give girls more choices and opportunities. Let's work together to break the shackles of preferring boys and give girls a more beautiful future.
