I'm rereading the whole thing now and I wonder. Is the reason why Miok "can't support them" not because of them but because of the little girl? I kept getting confused why she was being so weird about it and that would be the only somewhat reasonable explanation. That she doesn't want the girl to feel singled out once she's older, just like Miok feels now. If not, then the whole arc doesn't make much sense to me.
