Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Boys find it difficult to conform to the feminine norms of politeness, cleanliness, and obedience that are valued in school. Consequently, they have a relatively high rate of alienation and frequently break school rules. Girls generally are encouraged into passive roles, which may lead to selection of service careers that tend to be associated with low status and salary. Girls receive less encouragement to learn skills that would lead to success in the fields of math and science.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: The social network and peer culture play a large role in the development of ones self. The extended activities provide the needed connection to children of the same age, interest and development.
