| Summary | "The Power of Womanhood, or Mothers and Sons" by Ellice Hopkins is a treatise aimed at parents, particularly mothers, written in the late 19th century. The book discusses the critical role mothers play in nurturing and guiding their sons, emphasizing moral responsibility and the influence that a mother's character can have on the upbringing of young men. The author proposes that the protection and development of future generations rest significantly on the shoulders of educated women and their protective instincts. At the start of the work, the author shares her journey and struggles, advocating for mothers to become actively involved in the moral training of their sons. She stresses that mothers should be aware of the dangers their boys may encounter as they grow up, particularly the destructive influences that can emerge during school life. Hopkins encourages mothers to foster an environment of purity, respect, and responsibility in their homes, highlighting the significant influence they hold over their sons' moral and emotional development. Through personal anecdotes and insights, Hopkins aims to awaken the consciousness of women regarding their crucial role in the family and society at large.
