It appears that all the adults in the situation have abdicated any responsibility to wholesomely nuture the child (I realize that this is primarily the mother's responsibility).
Is it productive to spend all day teaching a child about Christianity, only to have the mother undermine it every evening? As you correctly pointed out, it is the mother who has the chief responsibility to raise her child. If she is acting at cross purposes to the school, the child does not benefit.

So, you feel that the influence of this mother will cancel out all of the day-long lessons learned at the school?
Do you doubt that there are cases where children have developed a higher morality than their parents, due to the influence of christian education?
Could you not see the daughter even being a spiritual help to her mother at some point?
