* DisproportionateRetribution: Lydia has Ryan taken away by child services after her tryst with the principal goes awry. Noelle only wanted to help Lydia with her personal life, and the principal does not approve.

* ParentalNeglect: The young child in Aunt Lydia's flashbacks suffers from this. While his mother absolutely loves him very much, she can't provide adequate food for his lunches, leaves him at school without answering phone calls, and allows his hygiene to suffer. Lydia would be within her rights (and legally obligated) to remand him into state custody if this behavior was ongoing and unchanging.

** There is a reason why homebirths are considered to be risky, especially without the proper medical equipment. Had such equipment been available, they would have seen that Ofandy's baby is in distress (with the cord wrapped around her neck) and that an emergency C-Section would have been ordered. So much for Gilead valuing the birth of a child.
