Why are teenage guys more independent than teenage girls?

[Anonymous]

Every parent I know who has kids tells me their teen sons help cook, clean, do their own laundry, babysit their younger siblings, and will move out as soon as they're 18 years old.

On the other hand, many parents tell me their teen daughters depend on them for EVERYTHING. They won't cook, clean, do laundry, won't get a job, and just sit in their "cave", and play video games all day. They also plan to live with their moms until they're in their 30s.

My boyfriend had to grow up quickly because his mother and older sister abused him he had to figure out things on his own.

Maybe because they've already got it figured out that, chances are, they'll be lonely in life so, they just get used it sooner.

Males are thrown to the wolves and females are coddled. That is how some cultures/societies are set up

To my understanding it's usually the exact opposite.
