If the parenting is inadequate to keep a child alive and reasonably healthy, they need to be removed from that guardian.
Also, beggars can't be choosers unless a person is foolish enough to allow themselves to be walked all over. I'll usually respond to a request for assistance, but my willingness to help requires the asker to agree with the solution I provide. Some people aren't looking for solutions, and many have ulterior motives.
It takes a tiny bit of discernment to tell the difference between those with needs, and leeches. One requires utmost compassion, the other utmost contempt.
