It may be worth remembering... Written by Mary Skater (10/14/2010 3:58 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Weak woman, penned by Angela L

that Mrs Price has spent a big proportion of her married life pregnant. She would still have had to attend to the household chores, however tired or unwell she felt. This could have ingrained a habit of doing as little as possible. Maybe Betsey is her "darling" simply because no other child came along to take attention away from her.
