...herds of the elephants. It seems she is the most powerful in the elephant's family. In humans, who should be leading the family, the mother, or the father? Since I was born, it is my father who leads us. It is the cultural thing being practiced by some families in my country.
Do you think it should be equal in leading the family?

In my day was father too but think mother slowly taking over. Mostly do to everything is screwed up, think modern times a true healthy family has both now as equal partners.

Animals do not have the concept of money and so, naturally, it's the mother leading. Even in humans, if you take out the monetary part, you can clearly see that it's the females who lead the family.

@Miracle_Maya I go your point now. I agree that one of them will take over managing the financial part.

@Shavkat No, not exactly. I believe financial planning must be done by whoever has more knowledge about investments and savings, or by both together if both have good knowledge. Gender has little role in it, while knowledge is what is more of an important criteria here.
