The Rоmаn Cаthоlic Church in the Middle Ages wаs seen as an intermediary between Gоd and the people. The idea that clergy were the so-called ‘gatekeepers to heaven’, filled people with respect, awe, and fear. The Church was extremely wealthy. Monetary donations were given by many levels of society, most commonly in the form of a tithe, a tax that amounted to roughly 10% of their earnings. In return for this, believers were shown the way to everlasting life and happiness after lives that were often short and hard. The Church was also one of the main distributors of charity at the time, running basic hospitals, as well as housing travelers and providing places of shelter and sanctity. Many clergy had some level of education and those who entered the clergy were offered the chance to learn to read and write: a rare opportunity in the rural Medieval society. Church was attended by all, sometimes everyday, and vast monasteries and convents were built to celebrate the Christian beliefs. Pilgrims would travel huge distances to pay their respects for dead saints. Monasteries often had schools attached, and their libraries were widely regarded as some of the best. Then as now, education was a key factor in the limited social mobility offered at the time. Those accepted into the monastic life also had a more stable, more privileged life than ordinary people.

Wоmen in the Middle Ages were оfficiаlly required tо be subordinаte to some mаle, whether their father, husband, or other kinsman. Widows were often allowed some control over their own lives, but they were still restricted legally. Women of different classes performed different activities. Rich urban women could be merchants like their husbands or even became money lenders, and middle-class women worked in the textile, inn-keeping, shop-keeping, and brewing industries. Poorer women often sold food and other merchandise in the market places or worked in richer households as domestic servants, day laborers, or laundresses. For most children growing up in medieval England, the first year of life was one of the most dangerous, with as many as 50% of children succumbing to fatal illness during that year. Moreover, 20% of women died in childbirth. During the first year of life children were cared for and nursed, either by parents if the family belonged to the peasant class, or perhaps by a wet nurse if the family belonged to a noble class. By age twelve, a child began to take on a more serious role in family duties. Peasant children stayed at home and learned domestic skills and animal husbandry. Noble boys learned skills in arms, and noble girls learned basic domestic skills. Marriages were often arranged, especially for nobles. Noble girls often married at 12 years old and boys at 14. The end of childhood and entrance into adolescence was marked by leaving home and moving to the house of the employer or master, entering a university, or entering church service.
