The American society was shaped by an economic and a religious change. The women were changing a great deal because the women were realizing that they didn't necessarily need the men to run things. This developments affected women in three main categories. The women's roles and opportunities in the family, workplace, and society. The started to work, but only in curtain places and at one point only curtain ages could work and if you were a lady who was over or under that age, you were not allowed to work. The main careers for the women were, nursing, Domestic servants in someone's home, working in the cotton mill and teaching in a school. These careers were for unmarried women. For the women who were already married, and wanted to work anyway, the careers were house maintaining ,and child rearing. This terribly affected the home life of these women. In the home the women were to take care of the children, and were constituted as the first teacher, because the children were the future of the country and they were to be raised with proper education, and the proper manners that would be considered very high class. When the changes hit the house hold the teachings were not as strict as before, and there was really no more teaching at home; the children, who were old enough, went to school, and the babies would stay at home with a servant or with a relative while the mother and father were off working. Once the changes hit home it also really affected the women in the public society.
