The answer is:

Her mother is frail and aging.

By saying this and adding this unnecesary details to the story the author wants you to sympathize with his mother, in a way that we all do with grandmas because of that fragility.

What is one reason that Thomas Paine thinks the colonies stand a good chance against the British
Svet_ta [14]

On the other hand the British had everything to lose once the colonies freed themselves from the oppression. The colonies had every resource to prepare arms for the fight against the British. The British would lose out financially in a big way as the colonies would then stop paying undue taxes that the British government charged.      </span>
