In Victorian Times, which is what you are asking (I think), Young boys were often treated as "little men". As future heads of household, they were sent to school to learn math, science, and other things that would assist them in becoming successful men of their era. Oftentimes, fathers were more strict with boys, with the aim of making them "men".
