My view has changed a little bit. I kind of thought they had hard lives but they seem to be happier than i thought. They seem more similar to our culture than i originally thought.

# data[].attributes.body
My original views were that the Puritans were boring people. But now I have come to the conclusion that their family lives weren't that much different from ours.

# data[].attributes.body
My views have not changed

# data[].attributes.body
my view has changed but only slightly. I thought that the women had no say but their word is what people believe.

# data[].attributes.body
I always thought of the Puritans as generally harsh people, but from this presentation I can see how their family structures were not much different from ours today.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that the puritans where a very mean and unforgiving. I learned that they were just normal people farming and doing their best.

# data[].attributes.body
My perception has changed because I thought that Women were just stuck to cleaning and cooking. I did not know that they actually had a voice in the town and what they said goes.

# data[].attributes.body
My perception has changed from a very terrible and horrendous puritan society to a view more as like our own society. Though the puritans were not exactly like how we are now, they do share some similar characteristics.

# data[].attributes.body
My viewed has changed a little because of the fact women did not have much say but everyone listened to them if they said someone is a bad person.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that the puritan lives were more strict

# data[].attributes.body
My view on the puritans has changed from the presentation in the manner that they were actually less stern and strict in their households than I thought. Instead they were as normal families nowadays, showing lots of love in their families and to their children/parents.

# data[].attributes.body
My views on the women changed. I did not know that the woman actually had a voice in the town almost more than the men.

# data[].attributes.body
I realized that Puritan relationships were not as strict and distant as I thought. Instead, they are loving and passionate.

# data[].attributes.body
My views haven't really changed. Only that the relationship with the family and their spouse has change

# data[].attributes.body
My view of the Puritans has not changed from what initially thought. I believed that they were into agriculture and were very religious. Also that the women did most of the things around the house while the men worked on the farm.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that maybe the men were in charge completely and a little cruel to their wives since women were considered inferior, but I was surprised to find that the women had some power in the town and they also were quite loyal to their husbands and loving.
I was mostly right in my thinking but a few things changed.

# data[].attributes.body
My view has changed very little but the one thing that sicks out is that they weren't all poor people. Some didn't have it too bad and could live like they did back in their home countries.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought of them generally the same as what i learned in the presentation. However, on the aspect of marriages I thought they would have been a little more controlling over who their children married.

# data[].attributes.body
My views on puritans hasn't really changed, except for the fact that the marriages between couples were more loving and about caring for the other person. I had previously thought that it was more about financial or economic benefits.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that puritans were strict and that the men were always in charge and the women did not have a lot of say. I also thought that the male children were only supposed to go to school and the female children were supposed to take care of the house with their mothers and they were not allowed to have much fun.

# data[].attributes.body
I know now that Puritan families are loving and caring rather than harsh and unemotional. The husband and wife are at the same level.

# data[].attributes.body
My view has changed from a very harsh, cold, and patriarchal perspective of Puritans, to one of more modern-familial style. I realize now that they were very loving and kind toward their children, that women had a role in society, and that they deeply cared about relationships and interactions.

# data[].attributes.body
Before this presentation, I thought that puritans were greedy, sinful, and liked killing Natives. Now I see again how the Puritans wanted a new start, and although some may have done horrible things, the Puritans as a whole just wanted a new start and are religious people.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that they married for opportunity rather than love, but I now know that is not true.

# data[].attributes.body
My original thought was that puritans were scared in every day life. It was a rough time to live in with the uncertainty of the Natives. However, life wasn't so bad as that the family had each other, and they really loved and trusted each other.

# data[].attributes.body
We would usually think of them as rude people that came over and started changing and destroying things. We thought they had no love life. We thought they were very cruel before now, but now we have seen that they weren't as awful as they seemed.

How has your perception of the Puritans changed from before the presentation until now?
