Unfortunately, it is extremely common for parents to treat their kids differently solely based on their gender. This usually doesn't end well for anyone involved, especially when this treatment boils down to missing out on worthwhile opportunities. Many moms and dads have some unsubtle biases that can show up in very questionable ways.
This is something that one teenage girl had the misfortune of dealing with recently when she began to raise questions about her education. Her older brother had been sent to an elite co-ed private school while she went to a less prestigious all-girls school. She decided that as it was a financially viable option, she wanted to go to the school her brother went to as well but her parents didn't see the benefit. Redditors were almost entirely on her side regarding this issue. You can't limit the education of your children without a good reason behind it.
