Women were taught on how to cook and even on how take care of their families and all this things were beneficially to the community and not to the persons involved.
And now in the 21st century, what many people believed in the past is now over but for girls it had been hard for mann peolep deviate from it in 2002, free primary education was introduced by the government and then many children who had been left out because of economic reasons were given a chance to go to school and this led to a increase in enrolment, especially for girls.
