[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The book makes it kind of clear that Mr. Bennett spent all his income every year instead of putting any of it away for dowries for his daughters. He was relying on the possibility of having a son, and then just shrugging and giving up when it became clear no son would come. [/quote] Yep. Mr. Bennett was a terrible father! Totally checked out of his family, hiding away in his office, doing nothing to ensure their continued well-being after his death in a time when women were completely reliant on the men in their lives to take care of them. I can understand why Mrs. Bennett was in a tizzy all the time with an uncaring partner like that! [/quote]
