Her older son (who is likely the one to inherit the Jarldom when she retires or dies) is a spoiled, xenophobic brat, and she's a naive fool who can't be bothered to just walk about Riften for a moment to see what's going on. Mavens behavior is Mavens fault, not Laila. She has her own faults, but every other Jarl stays in their keeps and things work fine. If Oblivion Skingrad was run by a vampire who never interacted with his subjects and I would say it was one of the best run town. Maven is abusing her power while pretending to be a trusted friend to Laila.
