No. This was a time when the philosophy concerning children was they were to be seen and not heard. The father was in full control of the household and no one had money but him.

The saying (a proverb or aphorism) is "Children should be seen and not heard."The implication is that children, not understanding many things due to their inexperience, should not comment on, criticize, or analyze adult situations. Occasionally an innocent or naive inquiry will demonstrate some aspect of a situation or concept that is overlooked ("From the mouths of babes..."), but many times a lengthy explanation is needed to explain to a child exactly what is happening, although it may be obvious to adults.
