Did the Paraguayan women who raised the next generation after the Paraguayan War (where something like 70%+ of the male population was killed, died of disease/malnutrition, or fled the country) perceive their children (especially sons) as being fundamentally different from the generations before?

I know there's not a lot of English language research available on the the topic and sources are limited even in Spanish and Portuguese. But I'm hoping by narrowing my question's scope (compared to others I've seen posted) might offer some opportunities.

How did Paraguayan mothers perceive their children's upbringing in a world with fewer male figures than their own generations had?

Thanks!

While there is much more to be said on this topic, I have written on a similar subject in the past which looks at it out of the perspective of a continuation of the pre-war Paraguayan social world instead of a sudden, major break with the status quo.
