A new study confirmed that education plays a key role in improving women's lives. Women who take more than two college-level math courses often achieve pay equity with men, and in many cases, receive higher average pay than men. If she shows an interest in technical things, buy her a subscription to Popular Mechanics or a computer magazine. Don't assume that she is not interested in technical things. Encourage your daughter to take advantage of volunteer opportunities, internships, and work-study programs, especially in her areas of interest.
Extracurricular activities add dimension.
Support your daughter's interests and participation in extracurricular activities. Sports, clubs, field trips, etc. allow students to find new interests, take on new responsibilities, learn leadership, be part of a team effort, and build a resume. Ask questions and not always accept the answers that are given. Take risks, seek challenges. Speak up and speak out - make sure their voices are heard.
