Trapped and innocent vs. trapped and insane

Women are known to be great caregivers, very nurturing and mother-like. In A Doll's House, Nora isn't much of a mother in this story, she's more of a teenage companion to her kids I would say. She plays with them, but never really shows motherly instincts in anyway. As for the women in The Yellow Wallpaper, she can't even see her child due to her psychological problems, but she continues to care for her child in spirit and thinks about him often. I believe that the baby is really dead and the doctor in the asylum is lying to her about how healthy he is, making her think he is alive and well. When I first read The Yellow Wallpaper, I thought it connected to A Doll's House, with the husband/doctor giving them nicknames or bird names and making them feel inferior without them even knowing it. Instead, reading further into The Yellow Wallpaper, it is about a woman in an asylum with great psychological issues. She is so obsessed with this yellow wallpaper in her room and can't seem to get it off of her mind. She rubs on it, stares at it, and practically even talks to it. This lengthens her issues a great deal, especially once I realized that she was the women in the wallpaper... it was her shadow. This woman believed it was another woman trapped inside wallpaper and tried to get her out so badly, and ending up hanging herself from the obsession of this "wallpaper woman". I thought it was a very intriguing story as it made a huge plot twist the farther I read into it. Now A Doll's House good as well, it actually made me irritated when Torvald kept acting like he was so superior and could boss everybody around him to the ground. Nora was a very sweet lady and she did everything to make Torvald happy and Torvald showed how much he loved Nora, but in a disgusting and childish way that didn't make it very appealing. Both stories relate in the way the men were treating the women, making them inferior to them and talking to them like puppy dogs. They also compare by them both being trapped in a house, but one is crazy while the other is a normal go lucky wife, treating her husband the way he wants to be treated. They contrast in the way of The Yellow Wallpaper being about a woman who starts off innocent, but ends up crazy in the end, while A Doll's House, it is a normal woman that is living a normal life, but trapped by her husband.
