Welcome to Suite 101, Rachelle. What a fascinating article on the History of the European Family. Interesting fact about "pater familias" being the master of the household. I think European men still try to hold on to that idea, more so than American men, and have a difficult time giving up on it.Excellent first article. I learned much from it.
Great to have you on the Suite!
