Or more training like aid dogs and dropping the unsuited or unneeded from the program.
The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth--that the error and truth are simply opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured of one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse than the first one. H. L. Mencken

I hate to disagree, but....
I think the Daughter grows hers rather than tucking them in a basket. She prunes them as needed, and forces them to bloom if needed, and fertilizes them, etc. All sorts of growing and changing things.
Less basket and more plants as pets, or pets as plants.

This came up in a discussion here over the weekend, and Karl put it up
on his LJ. I thought I'd cross-post it here:
In a discussion of the Chalion books, Amber mentioned that she didn't
like Hallowed Hunt because the Son wasn't as present as the gods were
in the previous two books. That made me think of the gods treating the
saints as their pets:
The Bastard meddles with his all the time.
The Daughter tucks hers into a basket and watches over them.
The Son throws a stick and says "Fetch!"
