Answer:
The correct answer is A. Matilda recognizes her mother’s weakness.
Explanation:
Matilda's Mother's disclosure that "I didn't know if I was looking at a bad man or a man who loved me" made Matilda feel a little uneasy about being told such a thing, which she considers to be adult talk. However, it made her realize something and change her perception of her mother.
She realized that her mother is still stuck at an earlier period in her life where she suffered a disappointment from Matilda's father. Matilda realized that whatever it was that her father did is still stuck in her mother's head and she hasn't moved on from it.
The paragraph <em>Miss Havisham remains in her wedding gown for an event that has been and gone. I had an idea my mum was stuck in a similar moment. Only it had to do with an argument with my dad. Her frown gave her away. A frown that could be traced back to the original moment. I had an idea that whatever my dad had said still rang in her ears, </em>confirms that Matilda recognizes her mother's weakness of not being able to move on from what happened to her in the past.
