Question

NEED HELP ASAP (TIMED). 25 POINTS!

Read the excerpt from act 3 of A Doll's House.
Nora: And how am I fitted to bring up the children?
Helmer: Nora!
Nora: Didn't you say so yourself a little while ago-
that you dare not trust me to bring them up?
Helmer: In a moment of anger! Why do you pay any
heed to that?
Nora: Indeed, you were perfectly right. I am not fit for
the task. There is another task I must undertake first. I
must try and educate myself—you are not the man to
help me in that. I must do that for myself. And that is
why I am going to leave you now.
Helmer (springing up]: What do you say?
Nora: I must stand quite alone, if I am to understand
myself and everything about me. It is for that reason that I cannot remain with you any longer.
Which 1800s societal expectation does the excerpt most challenge?
