I know....that is why I struggled for quite a while to take Misty from the homeless guy who used to be her caretaker. Some would say I should have done that earlier. But I couldn't -for those considerations.
Only when it became clear that he was unable to really care for her owing to his huge shortcomings (and those were nothing to do with being homeless or poor) -did I act instinctively to protect her.
