Answer:
it's best if you don't beat around the bush and tell everyone the truth
The correct answer is option one.
Mrs Pontellier and Madame Ratignolle are friends who have opposite characteristics and represent different female roles. The first does not have a special bond with her children - she makes them carry her paints and things into the house. The children do not stop to talk to her - they just want to see what is in the bonbon box.
On the other hand, Mrs Pontellier sees Madame Ratignolle as a graceful and refined woman with a stronger maternity spirit. She has a more loving relationship with her children, since they embrace her as soon as they see her.
