I'm not saying that Mildred is the right here, but I feel like she's slowly feeling the weight of her actions. Yes she's been acting like a mother, but we need to remember that she's not mildred that is Iris and Lily's mother. She's just sensible enough to at least be responsible for them, she also probably feels guilty on both Ashley's past from Mildred, and the fact that she isn't Mildred means she can't really go to Lily and Iris and be the loving mother that she is, since she is not their mother.I think once the money problems and she could take a breather they'll be able to speak their thoughts so I'm looking forward to it!
