By making her kneel in dries grits
In "The Secret Life of Bees," Lily becomes a true beekeeper by facing her past traumas, finding healing through the support of the Boatwright sisters, and by fully committing herself to the care of the bees with love and dedication. Through her connection to the bees and the sisters, Lily learns about resilience, forgiveness, and the power of love.
Worker bees!

August is one of the three Boatwright sisters who take in and care for Lily Owens in "The Secret Life of Bees." She is the matriarch of the family and is known for her wisdom, kindness, and strong connection to nature. August plays a significant role in helping Lily discover and come to terms with her own identity and past.
In The Secret Life of Bees, Lily has a complex relationship with Rosaleen. Initially, Lily struggles with her feelings towards Rosaleen due to her own internal conflicts and unresolved emotions about her mother's death. However, over time, Lily comes to deeply value and care for Rosaleen as a mother figure and friend.
If by young you mean the larvae, then yes. The bees do feed the larvae.
I think those in particular are called Honey Bees. There are two different types of bees: the Honey Bee (or just the Bee) and the Bumble Bee.
Metaphorically, the queen bee would be August Boatwright because she touches and takes care of the rest of the family, including Lily and Rosaleen.
Young bees are often referred to as "larvae" or "pupae" during their developmental stages, but they are not called kittens or house bees. The term "house bee" usually refers to worker bees that stay in the hive to care for the queen, larvae, and hive maintenance. In contrast, "kittens" is not a term used in beekeeping.
Depending on the position in which the bee is to old in the bee colony depends on how long they are taken care of before they start to work. Worker bees begin to work almost immediately following the time they emerge. Other bees are taken care of for almost 3 weeks.
They would be called an "apiarist", a person who keeps bees. An "apiary" is a place where bees are kept or commonly known as a bee yard. "Apiculture" is the care and raising of bees. One might study Apiculture.
Humans affect honey bees by using insecticides in their gardens which kill the bees.
