| As the US became more industrialized and fathers increasingly worked out of the home, women gained more control over the socialization of their children. Mothers were expected to teach their kids traits that would be valuable for their future careers, such as industry, temperance, and self-control---traits that Ryan describes as the spirit of a small business man. However, at-home moral education no longer seemed like enough in terms of vocational training, so many fathers called for the establishment of a school system specifically meant to prepare male children for their future roles in the economy.

| + | Education became more prominent in the middle-class to create the class reproduction of their children when industrialization took away the opportunities for fathers to teach their sons how to be in the family trade. Fathers going into more industrialized jobs created a space in the family where mothers were expected to instill the moral teachings and further teachings of the children. But, Ryan makes note of how mothers were becoming more frustrated with their sons when they could no longer teach their sons by themselves, this caused the middle-class parents to send their sons to schools to ensure that they would be gaining an education that will keep them in their class status as a means of class reproduction.
