The mother's dwelling and maintenance are incumbent upon all her sons and daughters, according to their financial ease and the spaciousness of their homes. She chooses with whom she wishes to reside, and she should be obeyed in this matter. The one with whom she resides has the right to demand from his siblings their share of her maintenance, clothing, and housing. Her going out for recreation or to visit those she loves is a duty upon her children.
