What percentage of children that are removed from parents are given to grandparents for permanent custody?
Not enough unfortunately. Usually, if the child is removed from both parents' care before legal guardianship is established, the child is remanded to the custody of the state. At that point, it becomes more difficult (and expensive) for grandparents to gain custody. There are heartbreaking stories all over the place of grandparents trying in vain to get custody of their grandchildren.

Should victims of domestic violence face the threat of losing custody?
No, the victim of abuse should not lose custody of any children. However, Child Aid may take the children away until the victim seeks psychological counseling (learning tools to stay away from abusive relationships) and settling into a job and providing a healthy environment for their children. Sometimes the victim's parents or grandparents may be given custody until the victim is settled in her life.
