Question:What effect does the the blood and gore in the short story Bloodchild have on its story?

Status Quo: Stories that consist of mature scenes of blood and gore have the single purpose of simply disturbing the reader.

Trouble: While the story did have disturbing from the mature details, a lot of depth within the plot is found as well as a much different purpose for the mature sequences other than simply disturbing the reader.

Claim: The blood and gore in the short story Bloodchild has the sole purpose of intensifying the plot and creating an understanding of the decision making of the main character.
