She's the youngest of 7 granddaughters and the only one who has to do things by herself. The others were made to feel part of a team effort to get the housework done, the laundry done, the kitchen done. The child did one thing while the parent did another, but they worked together and there was frequent talking and laughing and sharing as the work was done. This child does hers alone and then gets it inspected.
Her step-mother even refers to herself as the army sgt. I guess I really don't think the step mom loves her very much. Unfortunately her real mother is dead.
