* Both parents are depressed about how life at home is, with Lincoln living in fear of his siblings and the girls in no better shape. They also grow fearful the restrictions their daughters have might be doing more harm than good, seeing as Lucy was a complete mess without her journal to write with.
* In spite of their attempt to lighten the girls' mood by lifting some of their punishments, the sisters are apathetic about being given some freedom. Not only that, the parents discover the girls' social lives are almost nonexistent, with a few of them refusing to continue their passions.

The boy feels like being of use to his sisters is the only thing he's good at, and felt like they were trying to replace him with their protocol, leaving him with nobody to need him. The boy even outright admits he feels like him being born was a mistake since he has none of the accomplishments his sisters do.
