I would like to add something for Rosa's behavior as a mother. I grew up in a country and generation that hitting your child as punishment (spanking) is not considered violence.

However, what Rosa did would still consider abusive in my culture, which has an idiom something like "if you love your cow, tie it to the pole, if you love your child, spank him". Grabbing her child hair, slapping her face and yell at her like that is not a proper punishment at all. It is violence, which show lack of self-control. Yes, she could spank her but that have to come after proper explanation about what did she do wrong in detail first. Rosa's mother would only scar her daughter emotion and mental in the long run.
