Amanda Grayson on Vulcan

Why was Spock's mother, Amanda Grayson, with the Vulcan High Council before its destruction and her death?

 

I'm sure Sarek wanted to keep her close.

 

she was with sarek though some books have speculated amanda but her own right
was respected by some of the elder powerful vulcans.

 

What was she doing with Sarek, during a council meeting?

 

it was probably impervious to almost everything except for the planet being destroyed.
remember the sensors were not functional so the vulcans themselves probably
wouldnt have a clear picture of what was being done to the planet until near the end.

 

It was "Take Your Wife to Work Day".

 

A little surprising, seeing as all the shit Spock caught for being half-human, and that would be half-Amanda. I didn't see a lot of respect there. If Amanda was respected, you'd think civility would be shown her son.

Or maybe it's that Vulcans can respect humans...they just don't want them in the family.
