Answer to Question 1

 Their vision produced a period known as the Enlightenment, which stressed a humanistic view of life, freedom, family, reason, and law.
 The ideal person was sympathetic to others and receptive to new ideas. These new beliefs influenced both the structure and lifestyle of the family.
 The father's authority was tempered, discipline in the home became more relaxed, and the expression of love and affection became more commonplace among family members.
 Upper- and middle-class families began to devote attention to childrearing, and the status of children was advanced.
 As a result of these changes, in the nineteenth century children began to emerge as a readily distinguishable group with independent needs and interests.
 Parents often took greater interest in their upbringing.
 Public outcries led to a decrease in excessive physical discipline. Restrictions were placed on the use of the whip, and in some schools, the imposition of academic assignments or the loss of privileges replaced corporal punishment.
 Despite such reforms, many children still led harsh lives. Girls were still undereducated, punishment was still primarily physical, and schools continued to mistreat children.
