women really should be independent -- He Mei's mom

She had to rely on her husband and did what he requested her to do.
You are right. She was not decent person either, otherwise she could fight for her daughter if she was sure.
she must have been in deep pain when she had a bonding with her D and had to send her away.
I could not imagine how she overcame her hatred for her husband if she really loved her D.
I am a mom. I can understand Bakers. I would fight to death for my girl even though I knew that it is not moral.
