yeah, i feel like she would've grown up being self-sufficient because aside from having basic needs taken care of by maids and such, she would've been left to her own devices. awww little liech playing by herself, poor lamb. he would've made the effort with etiquette and maybe music but otherwise he was a hands-off 'parent' (not unlike upper class victorian dads, really). but she was such a good kid, he would always think fondly of her when he remembered she existed.

to be honest, he's not the best model for independence so he can't fault her at all. she never really got the chance, but she's done very well even so. he'll sing her praises if asked, as compared to the criticism he'd heap on his other 'kids'.
