Gender roles are ideas about how men and women should act. Many years ago, people thought men should work and women should take care of the home. But today, this is changing. In many families, men and women work together. They share housework and child care. This is a good change. It helps families to be happy. Some people still believe that men should do certain jobs, like being a teacher or a nurse. Others think women should only take care of children. But today, anyone can do any job they want. It is important to support each other and respect choices. Everyone should have the freedom to be who they are.
