      all right. so what is to be done considering this fait accompli well, one might suggest that her extended family pitch in to help her. or perhaps social organisations or government.

      unfortunately her dysfunctional extended family is working against her. one of her relatives is envious of *her* having a baby and decided that the appropriate response is to fabricate CPS reports to attempt to have the baby put in foster care

      this is a credible threat as much of her extended family has a history of making such reports against people who piss them off the risk of such entanglements also discourage her more functional network from engaging with her

      the ability of the dysfunctional extended family to interfere in this counterproductive manner, as you can see here, is being enabled entirely by government programs that are supposed to be helpful

      there's really not any good solution here. the sort of thick society that would have used somewhat coercive pressures to discourage her from getting pregnant doesnt exist anymore. government programs are worse than useless

      more competent people who could plausibly help her structure her life are fairly systematically discouraged from doing so could i help? maybe on the margins. is it worth the risk of multiple lawsuits and fights against fabricated CPS reports putting my daughter at risk? uhhhhh

      ultimately what this woman needed was not a government program but a society that would encourage or pressure her to make the good choices that she basically is not competent to make on her own

      I hate this conclusion because my fondest desire is for everyone to fuck off and leave other people alone but a very large number of people are not up to the task of making good decisions for themselves and the consequences of those bad decisions affect many other people

      a parent cannot credibly commit to not caring for a grandchild that their kid has when their kid is not capable of raising their own child, for example and if they or people like them /don't/ do something then that grandchild will suffer greatly
