"So, what's the deal? You two are dressed quite nicely. Is your family short on food? Or clothes?"
"Can't you treat all children the same? Do you have to play favorites?"
"If this girl weren't so tough, who knows what you would have worn her down into."
"If you don't want to raise her, just say so. Don't give me that nonsense about how 'this child is no trouble, she can do laundry and cook, she eats little and isn't picky about clothes, so she won't be a burden.'"
"Shouldn't you be raising the child of your lifesaver? Since you want the vanity that comes with it, don't act like it's such a hardship! If you're not willing to raise her, plenty of good families would be happy to take her in!"
"In any case, I adore this child."
