"Girl" is a string of advice given from a mother to a daughter, and switches from concrete tasks (like sewing buttons) to the struggles of life (how to get someone to love you).  How would you characterize the mother?  Is she too tough on her daughter?  Do you see any love in the story?  What can we tell about the mother and daughter based on the advice given?  What might race and the time period have to do with the advice?
