Line 18:
Ruth was a traditional housewife who stayed at home and raised her children, hence having a view that a woman place is at home. This is shown as one of the reasons of her dislike of her daughter in law [[Helen Morgendorffer|Helen]], who she sees as neglecting her husband because of her work. She also discourages her granddaughter [[Quinn Morgendorffer]] of becoming a doctor, saying she should marry one instead.
Ruth seems to have suffered (and still suffer) as much as Jake from the bullying of her husband "Mad Dog". In the episode [[Jake of Hearts]] she first describes him as a decent man but later starts remembering his faults (including never having been given enough money to care for the house and children) and apologizes to Jake for never having stood up for her son against him. In "[[The Daria Diaries]]", Jake's letters home from military school say he forgives his mother for sending him there because he knows she could never resist him.
