Finally watching Disco season 2!

A few minutes into the first episode and I already have so many questions, questions like: Does Amanda know how to help Michael take care of Michael's hair? (I'm sure Sarek neither knows nor cares, sorry.) Did they tell Spock before plopping a new "friend" on his plate? Doesn't Michael have any other family that could take her in? Who's the social worker who approved this placement? Not only is Sarek the worst, but aren't cultural considerations a factor? Wouldn't it make more sense to place an 8 year old human child in a place with more humans? Like earth? (It's not like this family already knows her and is close to her. Like, if she and Spock were already BFFs it would make sense to place her with her friend's family so long as they were amenable to that. Or if they'd taken her in for a short term placement that somehow stretched out into the long term, it'd make sense for her to stay there.)

I mean, it's not that I think it is necessarily wrong, all else being equal, for a human kid to be raised by a mixed couple on Vulcan, but it's certainly not the obvious choice here. And it's not like she's an infant. She's a traumatized young girl who has been raised in a very different culture. (I'm not feeling too sanguine about Vulcan's ability and/or willingness to provide appropriate mental health care either, when it comes to that.) Who made this decision? Did they do any follow-up visits to check that everything was okay?

Also, their house is enormous. But, ambassadors, right?
