[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It bothers me SO much when the murderer's parents have custody.

I wonder if it would help if Christine's parents went public with their fight for custody for V. I'm 100% positive the public would rally around them and it could help put pressure on the system to take a harder look at V's current situation.

Dan Markel's parents did this and they actually got the law in FL changed wrt grandparents rights. It's a different situation with this case because their grandchildren still have their mom since the state has not charged the kid's mom with Dan's murder. [/quote]

Or maybe they can try to not splash the child across the headlines any further. If sole physical and legal custody is granted to BBs mom then sure, gloves off and do anything it takes. But that hasn’t happened yet, and I think a large chunk of the public thinks it’s slimy to put a child in the spotlight and start publicly slandering the one person left in that house who has been caring for her- the child is old enough to read the news now. Is it in her best interests to read how her one grandma thinks her other grandma is a lying piece of S** who thinks her mother was a W***? They should do everything in their power to fight for her, hard, but privately and while trying to let her keep the small amount of dignity and privacy she has left after this horrific ordeal.

And I understand that Tess is the one person left who takes care of her solely because Brendan wouldn’t  allow Christine’s family to have access to her. I’m not arguing that Tess is the good guy here. But it doesn’t matter who the good guy is for this one fact to be true- the only caretaker that the child has left, out of the people she has real memories of (given how young she was when this happened), is Tess and I guess Tess’s mother. Her mom is gone, her dad is gone, her au pair who she had been told is her new mother is gone. Her maternal grandparents and her old au pair are, in her mind, probably also gone because she hasn’t been allowed any access to them from what I’ve read here. So the child’s best interests need to stay at the forefront, even if she hopefully does eventually live with her maternal grandparents [/quote]
