One example is........"I am assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London; that a young healthy child, well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious,nourishing, and wholesome food; whether stewed, roasted, baked or boiled, and I <span>make no doubt, that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or ragout."

Why does Daisy hope her child will be a beautiful fool? She was trying to imply that the life of a woman is a happier one in ignorance. If her daughter is a "fool" then she will never have to suffer the harsh realities of the real world. Think of the old saying " Ignorance is bliss".
