Females are considered as the developing and supporting elements of a family. They support their families in making them respectable members of society. Without female supports and help the proper development of a family is not possible. Women are the family builders who carefully develop a family as per its requirements in society. That is why female education is the basic need for social development in a country. This study discovers the need for female education to be essential for a family in Pakistan. A well-developed and tested questionnaire is used for data collection. Data were collected from 110 respondents on a convenience basis from selected primary schools of district Malir in Karachi. For data analysis, descriptive statistics were applied on proposed variables, such as the importance of female education, female financial support, female support for children's education, and female support in family grooming. The results of the analysis were in favour of female education. This study stands out as the first of its kind in Pakistan intended to serve as an inspiration for government regulators to help them in future policymaking for the country. Due to female education in the country effective decision-making and planning activities may help not only to improve the present society but also to reduce poverty in Pakistan
