In page Terem (Russia):

Daughters were often born and brought up solely within the confines of the terem, where they were isolated in accordance with Eastern Orthodox teachings regarding premarital virginity. They were taught by their mothers and other female relatives to become wives, spending most of their days in prayer or needlework.[1] Indeed, except for short excursions, women did not leave their quarters until marriage,[1] though they were permitted to receive visitors and leave their rooms to manage household affairs.[2] Male children, on the other hand, were typically taken from their mother’s care around the age of seven to receive formal instruction at the hands of private tutors or their male family members.[citation needed]
