I think she should be proud of what she has because a lot of people have problems at home and stuff. And it seems like she is not proud of what she has. For example in the text it says "There are many things your father has done; she said. ‘Many things of which you should be proud. If it wasn’t for your father where would I be now after all?" she is basically saying if I never got with your father this world that we have right now would not be like this it will be much worst then what you think.
I can compare myself with this a little bit cause was dad was a great help when we were younger but right now he can’t do much but I really do think she should be proud of who she is, what she has.
