Once you’ve read the source material, you have some observations in the chart regarding the ideal, or “perfect,” fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters. This question asks how some of the sources depict the ideal fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters: What do they do, and how do they act? And do you note that some ideal fathers/mothers/sons/daughters act/think the same ways in the sources, or are they depicted doing quite different things? Finally, how do those parenting approaches compare to Shippen and Wayland, discussed in the intro to the sources?
