The correct answer is:

  • To be recognized as equal to men
  • To be treated as full citizens
  • To be involved in the political process.

Explanation:

Abigail Adams was the wife of President John Adams and the mother of President John Quincy, she wrote frequently to her husband because they spent several time apart, specially when Adams was in the Second Continental Congress, on her letters (published after she died) she asked her husband to remember the women. Abigail was an advocate for women rights, and believed that women should be educated and involved in the political process, because they are equal to men. Abigail Adams didn't live to see women earned the right to vote, she died in 1818, and the United States Constitution granted women the power to vote in 1919, after the Women Suffrage movement.
