The biggest difference between boys and girls is how people treat them.

- Sonika Sethi

The biggest difference between boys and girls is how people treat them. "I've always admired the words of IW Gregorio, surgeon by training, young adult writer by passion. My oft-repeated request to mothers is, "If I can treat my girls just a little like boys, why can't you treat boys a little like girls?"

Why, after all, do we teach boys to sympathize with a crying girl rather than to empathize with her? Sympathy offers pity; empathy seeks understanding. A truly meaningful gesture doesn't just acknowledge pain—it tries to comprehend its roots. And sometimes, that shift in perspective is all it takes to nurture deeper, more respectful relationships.
