Title:Understanding Social Norms Related to the Adolescent Life Cycle

Balika Panchayat meeting was held on 22.04.2024 at Mathur Village. In this meeting School teacher Mr. V. Balamurugan was Invited special guest. ADECOM Women’s Resource Centre field coordinator Mr. S. Murugan organized and the members were divided into two groups and one group was asked to raise male children and the other group to raise female children. Both groups then discussed the issue of male child rearing and female child rearing in which the birth of a male child is most critically celebrated and the naming of a male child is a ceremony. If it is a male child, they buy nutritious products and bring them up with nutrition from childhood. Boys get good education for their higher education and get admission in the institutes of their choice. Boys are free to go wherever they want. These are not taken seriously because the girl gives birth immediately after the birth. The birth of a girl child is not celebrated like the birth of a boy child. Just because they are girls, they are not given nutritious food. Women are not given higher education in the institutions of their choice or in the education of their choice. Girls are not allowed to go out and play. Girls are not allowed at home to wear whatever clothes they want. They don’t give importance in education just because what are you going to do with girl studies you are going to go to another house by yourself. 9 members are participated in this meeting.
