Abigail Adams was born on November 11, 1744 and died on October 28, 1818. Abigail Adams would have been 73 years old at the time of death or 270 years old today.
she might think that its al right.
By most accounts, Abigail Adams loved to read, she loved to write letters to people she cared about (including her husband John, who was often traveling on government business), and there is evidence at what is today the Adams Mansion historical site that Abigail also enjoyed gardening.
Abigail Adams ate many of the same foods that are still popular today. Indian pudding, codfish cakes and apple pan dowdy were some recipes prepared for her and her husband when she was First Lady.
I am not sure which "Dorothy Quincy Adams" you are asking about. There was a Dorothy Quincy, but her married name was Hancock, and she was the wife of John Hancock; today, the Quincy home is a tourist site in the city of Quincy MA, as is the Adams home, where John and Abigail lived. The Quincy family was very famous in early Massachusetts, and Dorothy Quincy was well-known as a hostess, giving parties which many important people of her day attended. John Quincy Adams (whose mother was Abigail, and father was President John Adams) did have a wife, but her name was not Dorothy-- it was Louisa.
This is a very complicated question. John Adams loved and respected his wife very much. He was very faithful to her unlike other revolutionary men (Franklin/Jefferson). He occasionally took her thoughts into consideration which wasn't commonly done in this era. Although, Abigail Adams, his wife wrote a letter to him (I suggest you look it up) called "Remember the Ladies". His response to this letter (which I also suggest you read) probably would not be accepted in today's society.
There is nothing the modern world that is much like the art of letter writing that John and Abigail practiced, except perhaps those few people that still write serious letters to each other. E-mail could be used to send longer, carefully written letters, but most people write off the top of their heads and send their letters off after 2 or 3 minutes of composition and no rewriting. Essays or compositions of the sort that people write for college English are the probably the closest thing today to the Adams' letters, I think.

Abigail Adams was born on November 22, 1744, and passed away on October 28, 1818. This means she was 73 years old at the time of her death. Abigail Adams played a significant role in American history as the wife of John Adams, the second President of the United States, and as a prominent advocate for women's rights and education.
Abigail Adams famously advocated for women's rights and education, urging her husband John Adams to "remember the ladies" in the formation of new laws. Today, similar concerns persist regarding gender equality, with ongoing debates about women's rights, reproductive health, and workplace equity. Additionally, issues like educational access and representation in leadership roles reflect her enduring legacy in advocating for women's empowerment and social justice. These contemporary challenges highlight the ongoing struggle for equality and the need for continued advocacy.
John Adams influence on this government today is to be more professional and be ready to go to college.
