The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) alleged under Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivision (a) that mother exposed then eight-year-old S.S. to a detrimental home environment, in which mother and S.S.’s maternal grandfather (MGF) engaged in physical altercations, including one during which MGF struck S.S.’s head. Under section 300, subdivision (b), the petition alleged that mother had failed to obtain timely, necessary medical treatment for an extended period for S.S.’s severe urinary tract infection, and also alleged that the altercations between MGF and mother endangered S.S.
