After knowing that she had her feed late, it could perhaps mean that her family or her father prefers the old ways as in the past; traditional way. Violet herself writes with pencil, papers, and is not very used to the feed, meaning they prefer the old styles. Her father perhaps liked history and wanted to teach that in the present future so later, the society could at least know how to write and read.
