simply put, ableism.

in a society where your usefulness is directly related to your physical health, a disabled lioness has no use. her other daughters are praised because they can still hunt and operate in a pride. nothing cannot. it might also be because powerstrike didnt expect any of her children to survive, so she was probably already feeling disconnected to them. pride lionesses probably come to numb themselves to their kids dying, especially if they go through multiple manes throughout their life.
