Birds are decedents of a small, likely gregarious, species of dinosaur that was not closesly related to T. rex. Check your facts, mate.

T rex is a tyrannosaurid. Tyrannosauridae for most parts were small creatures (Guanlong for example). Birds are theropods and so are Tyrannosauridae. Not only that, there is not one archosaurus known who has no maternal feelings. Be it birds or crocodiles. The brain of T rex (as it is of all Tyrannosaurids) is birdlike and is much larger developed than that of Allosauridae.
Sue was found united with 2 juveniles by her side. Thats a simple fact. There was also one bone from an Edmontosaurus found inside Sues ribcage and that one was acid etched and was most likely part of her last meal.
Maybe you should deepen your knowledge about the topic before you offend someone to "check his facts".
