Well, she had a couple of great teachers in how to do that. Her dad and Harry. So if anyone can do it, it will be her.

not exactly, she can't escape Winter, and Mab wanted her to be prepared to take her role as Queen, that means she'll become total Fae. Michael & Harry don't have any experience to teach her that.

I don't think that is what Mab means, yes, eventually Molly may become a total Fae to become Queen. However that doesn't mean she has to be devoid of compassion, that is the "Summer" Mab said she was acting like. Mab has rid herself of all compassion, that is what she thinks is needed, but both Harry and Molly think she is wrong.

--- Quote ---A cold, smooth voice came from the darkness in a patch of shadows papa’s tasteful lighting scheme had missed. “The person you used to be is what holds you back.”
Queen Mab stepped out of the darkness and faced me. She was wearing thick white fur robes. Her hair was a silver cloud around her, sparkling with crystals of frost. Her eyes were a pale, icy blue that was nearly white.
“Very eighties,” I said. “Did you use hairspray?”
Mab’s tone turned a little colder. “I summoned wind and ice.”
“Oh,” I said. “Sweet. I’ll have to remember.”
Mab glowered at me and then at my family’s home. “This is what keeps you from being truly ready.”
“Ready for what?” I chirped.
She gave me an icy look and shook her head. “Let the mortal die. She will not be of use to you.”

that's exactly what she meant, it's pretty clear.

Well, she can escape Winter. We know it can be done and survive. She know she can escape it too, but not in any way that keeps her above ground.
And for her and her mortal life, it may be that Mab is telling her this to push her into being a better WL and keep her humanity. We saw how Maeve turned out when she just let her humanity go. But maybe it's because she knows how much Molly loves Harry and wants her to lose her humanity to keep them both in her service. Or maybe it's just that Mab needs Molly as ruthless and cut throat as herself because of what is coming down the road and thinks that her humanity will hold her back, when we all know it's what makes her and Harry stronger.
