abstract
The Dharwad taluka's urban and rural settings were used for the study. The technique of random sampling was employed to gather data. A total of 124 parents of little children were included in the sample; 94 of them were female and 26 were male. The majority of respondents, it was discovered, fell into the medium category, indicating that they had conflicting opinions on the kinds of changes that gender equality would bring about in both life and the wider world. Regarding gender roles, there was a substantial difference between male and female respondents at the 1% level. Gender roles and parents' occupations were shown to be significantly correlated. The parents' various income levels differed significantly from one another.
