Grandparents and parents do not always have the skills to deal with child protective services. To work within and understand the system is very difficult for many. I see first hand how folk are not able to speak effectively in an effort to represent themselves. I will agree that the grandmother should have inquired about the child but I am sure there is more to this story than we know. I can almost assure you that the grandmother has very limited education, financial resources and other supports. As a caregiver most parents do what they think is right. The grandmother more than likely acted as best she could.
