Answer:
Limiting her
Step-by-step explanation:
A practice that has been done by many bird owners over hundreds of years is to clip the feathers on the wings of pet birds, such as chickens, parakeets, etc. It was painless, but it decreased the bird's ability to fly. It kept it limited to what it could hop-fly to. In this case, it is as if someone has cut off her freedom by taking something from her.
