Women managed their families and raised their children, as they always have. They also worked, doing nearly all the things men did, with surprisingly few exceptions. They were prevented from being monarchs in some countries, but even there, they were very often among the most powerful people in the country. Eleanor of Aquitaine, for example, was arguably nearly as powerful as King Louis VII, to whom she was married at one time, and who was otherwise her feudal lord.

There is a link below to a related question on what women did in the Middle Ages, and there are a number of source links there.

Women in the Middle Ages were chattel. They had no rights, no money, no land, no protection from abuse.
