Parenthood/Disobedience:

  • Parents were not easily disobeyed as a child. Growing up it was critical to listen to your parents. They chose who you would marry, not you.
  • If you disobeyed your parents, it became a sin in religious beliefs, and also created family issues.
  • If your parents wanted you to do so, you could be married as a boy at 14, as a girl at 12, and without parental consent at the young age of 21.

Children were always subserviant to the adults in the family. they were raised to respect and obey their parents. if not they were punished.
