Encourage girls to be independent from "summary" of Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

It is important to raise girls to be independent. This means teaching them to be self-reliant and self-sufficient. Encouraging independence in girls involves giving them the tools they need to navigate the world on their own. They need to develop the skills and confidence to make decisions for themselves and take care of themselves. Independence also means teaching girls to be comfortable with solitude, to enjoy their own company and not rely on others for validation. One way to encourage independence in girls is to give them responsibilities from a young age. This can be as simple as asking them to do chores around the house or taking care of pets. By giving girls tasks to complete, they learn to take initiative and develop a sense of agency. It is important to praise and reward them for their efforts, to show them that their contributions are valued. Another important aspect of fostering independence in girls is teaching them to think critically. Encourage them to question the world around them, to challenge authority, and to form their own opinions. Girls should be taught to trust their instincts and stand up for what they believe in. They should also be encouraged to pursue their interests and passions, even if they go against societal expectations. It is crucial to provide girls with a strong support system as they strive for independence. This means being there for them when they fail, offering guidance and encouragement, and helping them learn from their mistakes. Girls need to know that it is okay to make errors and that they have the resilience to bounce back.
  1. Raising girls to be independent means equipping them with the skills, confidence, and support they need to thrive on their own. It is about empowering them to take control of their own lives and make decisions that are best for them. By encouraging independence in girls, we are helping them to become strong, confident, and capable individuals who can navigate the world with grace and courage.
