Which of the following examples supports the conclusion that Edna was growing dissatisfied?

"She had reached a stage when she seemed to be no longer feeling her way, working, when in the humor, with sureness and ease. And being devoid of ambition, and striving not toward accomplishment, she drew satisfaction from the work in itself."

"She wept for very pleasure when she felt their little arms clasping her; their hard, ruddy cheeks pressed against her own glowing cheeks."

"[Her children's] absence was a sort of relief, though she did not admit this, even to herself. It seemed to free her of a responsibility which she had blindly assumed and for which Fate had not fitted her."

"She grew fond of her husband, realizing with some unaccountable satisfaction that no trace of passion or excessive and fictitious warmth colored her affection, thereby threatening its dissolution."

    "[Her children's] absence was a sort of relief, though she did not admit this, even to herself. It seemed to free her of a responsibility which she had blindly assumed and for which Fate had not fitted her."

    Explanation:

    In these lines, we are able to gain some insight into Edna's mind. We learn that she feels that the absence of her children is a sort of relief. She feels free from responsibilities. Moreover, we learn that Edna does not feel that she is suited to these responsibilities, and instead feels forced to accept them simply because they have fell upon her by fate. This is a clear indication of Edna's dissatisfaction.
