Actually, my point was that the nature of the child's parentage is irrelevant.  
Even if this child were not related in any way to Haywood, committing domestic 
violence in the child's presence would be a felony.  Why was it even necessary 
to refer to the child being "illegitimate"?

    I agree with your general comments, but I want to take a small exception to

  Hmm. Surely there must be a term that is not pejorative to the child yet 
allows the poor decision making ability of the parents to remain an issue for 
discussion. Nominations?
