Family life was dominated by men in the Elizabethan times. The women had to obey the men and it was seen as a “crime against their religion” if they disobeyed them. The men would make all of the decisions for the family and everybody was expected to be in compliance with them (Elizabethan Family Life). The men went out to work and provide for the family while the women had no choice but to stay home. They male children went to school but education was unavailable for females, so the majority of them were illiterate. Some wealthy families provided their daughters with education at home. There was a massive emphasis of good manners for kids, especially those raised wealthy parents.

At home, wealthy families didn’t generally consume dairy, it was considered as food for the poor, as well as food which was taken directly from the ground. Eating meat was also banned on certain days in specific parts of the country.

Families' sleep schedules were in line with the sunlight. As the sun set they would go to sleep, and wake up as soon as it rose again. This is because there was no artificial lighting. All lighting at home came from the sun, or candles for wealthy families.

All family members dressed a certain way to display their rank in society. For example, upper class citizens would wear clothing made from furs, silk, cotton, laces, etc.
