The women within the Stay at Home Daughter movement explain how career and education was viewed under this ideology. A higher education or a career outside the home was discouraged and considered pointless at best and an instrument of the devil at  worst.

The Daughters is an audio documentary exploring the way the Stay at Home Daughter movement - the idea that daughters should never leave the covering of their fathers until and unless they are married - affected those who grew up in it, including in their relationships, careers, education choices, emotions, dress, and religious choices. The documentary is open to those affected by this movement - both positive and negative.
