Why does the expectant mother (or father) have a "right" to be in the family of origin and the expected child does not? Who decided that the little one has no "right" to be part of his or her birth family, just because bmom or bdad doesn't want him/her to? What about in cases of child neglect and abandonment? The birthparent(s) aren't concerned with the best interests of the child, so are those grandparents to be viewed differently? I will look for other posts/threads/blogs about this, but I'd really like to know the answer to the first question.
