Grandma Is Pissed Grandkids Were Placed In Foster Care of 'Transvestite' Couple

"It's not right," says the unidentified Australian grandmother who's furious to see her 4-year-old grandson and 12-year-old granddaughter removed from her daughter's home and placed in the care of a gay male couple in Queensland. "I can't understand it at all. I was really upset. It has split our family even further." So she complained to a sympathetic social worker, and eventually claimed custody of her grandson, while her granddaughter was placed back in the care of the girls' mother. Why are we talking about this now? because the case came up in Queensland's Parliemant on Monday, when legislator Rob Messenger asked Child Safety Minister Phil Reeves "if he was aware the state had entrusted children to a transvestite," reports The Courier Mail.

straight social workers should be made to live with gay couples for a month or two before being allowed to decide where kids should be placed.

Something smell with this story
Why did they not take the grandchildren in in the first place? Most likely they did not want them, until they paced them with a gay couple. Then bigoted Grandma when nuts. How dare they place my grandchildren with "->-bleeped-<-s"?
There is more to this story than we have been told.

a) why were the children removed from home?
b) why didn't grandma take 'em to begin with?
c) what f-ing difference does their sexuality matter?
d) what f-ing difference does the contents of their wardrobe matter?
-.-

in my area grandparents are often refused custody due to social workers issues with older people.
but at same time there are 60+ women having babies by various means so it's all a bit of a mess.
