[quote=Anonymous][quote]With regards to Edith and Marigold...Edith originally put her up for adoption in Switzerland. Edith took the baby from that family and put the Marigold with the Drewes. Only Mr. Drewe knew the baby's origin, but Mrs. Drewe figured it out. Yes, Edith is utterly selfish from taking a child from a loving home--twice. [/quote] Yes, and I know that parenting standards were completely different in that time/class, but now Edith seems to be flitting out to London for her paper over and over without her beloved Marigold. And then staying a couple days, a week solo? Sure Mrs. Drewe would be even happier to hear that Marigold has been taken away from her to be cared for by a nanny exclusively for days/weeks a month. [Note: I have nothing against nannies and employ one myself! Not trying to start another WOHM/SAHM battle :D - just pointing out how Edith's class/culture has an interesting conception of maternal devotion in the first place...][/quote]
