Mrs Norris likes to manage other people Written by Mary Skater (9/12/2010 7:23 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Mrs. Norris – Too Angry, penned by Robbin

but Mrs Price absolutely refused to be managed. That would start Mrs Norris's resentment. Beyond that, I think her so-called anger is really a way of telling those around her how bad Mrs Price's situation is, and how much better off she would have been if she had paid attention to "big sister."
