A parent's worse nightmare....GUILT. Next ya know she's destroying the house, but heaven's no it's not GUILT ya feel.
She's probably not as unhappy as you think

I think she's fine, shoot Trace didn't realize there was more to our house than TWO rooms

And while not in a pen in those rooms, he's not allowed to roam the house cause who knows WHAT he'd find to destroy. Actually I can name a couple of those whats, so as long as he's Trace the viking....plunging and pilleraging...he stays put.
