the grandmother kept saying that the little boy was afraid of his mother and didn't want to go with her. She was doing drugs. Too late.

"Mrs Buckman, you need a license to build a house, drive a car, hell you even need a license to catch a fish! But, they'll let any butt-reaming asshole be a parent." - Keanu Reeves, 'Parenthood'

Remember there are states where a gay couple with good jobs and a great social presence are not allowed to even step into an orphanage, much less arrange an adoption with a parent who desires a good life for their unborn child. But, this lady was unchecked. That boy died because we as a society refuse to accept that the outdated ideas about 'traditional families' are a hinderance to helping said society be robust and viable. They are just tools that oppressors use to maintain control. And, in some cases, we let them do it because of 'tradition'.
