I get that Rose said it but maybe she didnt' know she didn't HAVE to give up her form? Or maybe she didn't want to tell Steven that she chose to leave him without a mother -technically speaking- when she had the option to raise him alongside Greg. I mean if you willingly ditched your kid forever and you didn't have too chances are that kid would be pretty mad and miss you at the same time. So, if Rose DID know she didn't have to give up her form but chose to anyway for Steven to have her gem but made a point of telling Steven she hadn't HAD too that wouldn't have gone over well for the poor kid.

But yeah she just might not have known she didn't HAVE to give up her form.. Ian J.Q just mentioned that she didn't NEED to for Steven to exist.
