Some people really do not deserve to have children let me tell you ! If she is doing all these terrible things in front of people … imagine what she is doing to these children in private behind closed doors. Please call child protective services ASAP
I know someone who was abused growing up. It was a small town everyone knew everything. No one did a damn thing to help any of those kids not even family. My opinion is you can stand with her family and say nothing or stand for those kids and say something. Which one makes you sleep easier?
Sounds like you already know what you need to do! Turn her in no babies should ever treated like that … and if its worse that what you all said above than absolutely
The question you must ask yourself here is could you live with yourself if anything bad happened to the kids and you know you could have stopped it!! If you couldn’t report her!
25 and 3 kids already one being 7 which means she was 17 and pregnant…don’t ask her parents for help please look what they raised. She will never be a parent to these kids report her please. Break the chain. She is what’s wrong with so many of kids today. She is a sorry excuse of a mother.
Get solid video proof and turn it in. Gather as much evidence as you can and keep reporting. In the meantime, I would try to help her/them as much as possible. Offer to take the kids for the day, see what they need and try to provide it. Give them extra love and show them you care. They’ll never forget you for that. And you’ll know you did the best you could for them.
Call child services, you owe it to those kids. We all need to help kids elderly and animals! Do the right thing.
Sorry but leaving this situation alone will only make it worse. Clearly this mother doesn’t have the right temperament for the 2 children she already has, let alone a third… sadly the only thing to do here is to raise this situation and all of the stuff you ommited to the police and social services immediately. You have to do the best thing for those kids. All 3 of them.
I agree if you can not help your friend your self or the kids call CPS on her and let them take care of the situation
This is your “friend”? You’ve been present enough times to establish a friendship and witness these behaviors without saying anything? How are you her friend? What makes you her friend or she yours? If there is truely evidence of physical, emotional abuse or neglect call social services. Just do it rather than talk about it and continue to enable by not saying something. This is abominable.
And why are you friends with her…?
For you to say that she’s horrible like that and you asking what you should do is worse by you asking instead of just doing. I would have seen that I would have reported a long time ago. Not asked what to do.
My father was abusuve toward my mother and me. i prayed someone would help me. no one ever did. I wish my mother’s friends had reported my father to the police, and i wish they would have scared the Bejesus out if him. To shape up or ship out. I learned not to trust men.
You can call in an anonymous report to Child Protective Services. Even if you identify yourself, they cannot disclose who made the report. There is likely more going on then you are even aware of and I would encourage you to think of the safety of the children and make a report. The sooner you do it the better, every day they are in tht situation is compounding their trauma and making it more difficult to recover. This is linknyo the numbers to report for every state. https://www.childwelfare.gov/organizations/?CWIGFunctionsaction=rols:main.dspList&rolType=Custom&RS_ID=5
If she treats the children like that in Front of you, Just Imagine what goes on behind closed doors. Call CPS, Please
First off get the kids away from her for a while…second. get her some help…she has some serious emotional problems that need to be addressed and counseling is definitely needed!!..she probably loves her children, but in the frame of mind she is in she has no priorities!..the kids need to to be taken out of this situation…and she needs some counseling.
It took us 3 phone calls but we finally got the girl next door arrested for child abuse and dope dealing. She lost her kids and got 5 years in jail.
Report her. Family is always a first choice when removing kids from parents.
Everyone saying call CPS, Do you know what happens to these kids if taken away??? Besides the kids most likely being separated from each other , they could end up in more abusive environment , or worse! Do you think they are being abused? Not fed? Name calling is horrible, but unless they are in real danger and seriously not loved- pulling them out in who’s knows what type of foster care could be worse then being with a mom they love, who isn’t ideal. There needs to be serious neglect or abuse before I would risk taking them away.
Did she try offering the young mom some advice or help? Maybe a stern conversations from a friend ( amd the family that supports her) on what you see with how she speaks to her daughter might help this young mom out. Don’t jump to CPS unless it’s a real danger, especially if she has family that helps and loves them - grass is not always greener on the other side. It could be horrendous for the children.
If the kids are not in physical danger then there’s nothing you can do, she’s just a bad parent. Some parents suck
If you call CPS, the first thing they are going to do (if they do anything) is ask mom if there is somebody else that could take her kids for a while. This person will need to be able to pass a background check and have beds for kids, and that’s about it. Who would she pick? Would they be better off there? Or worse? If that option won’t fix the issue, you need to be honest about how much you can do. Could you babysit everyday for free? If she’s willing to drop her kids anywhere, let her know you’d be happy to take them any time. If you can’t help, and her family is no better than her, you only have two options: report her AND her family to try to discourage CPS from allowing family to take the kids, or let it go. I hate saying let it go, because every kid deserves a good family and I don’t know the extent of the abuse here, but I have seen what CPS does to kids, and that’s not pretty either. Sometimes they would have been better off in the original bad situation.
One does what one has to do when children are involved. Their protection comes first.
You can only report her to DCPS anonymously, or if you’re willing to risk your friendship, let her know that you disapprove of her methods. She’s setting the little girl up to accept a life of abuse from men who will claim to love her. Break that cycle! Go brave!
Everyone says call CPS but if they take those kids they’ll be put in the foster system and most of the time that’s worse. Tough call.
The way you worded what was done but couldn’t be spoken about sounds like sexual abuse so I don’t even understand why you are on here asking if you should call CPS.
If you have pictures or videos that would be better, turn them in when you call so they will take it seriously. Too many parents sweet talk and fade their way out of cps grasp when its serious. Show them and they will hammer down on her.
Sounds like you need to make a phone call to child protective services
Collect evidence and contact CPS! They’ll do a case if they’re simply contacted but if you do a little leg work before contacting them it’ll speed up the process.
It’s literally illegal to have sexual relations in front of children that’s so disgusting and in itself should be enough to get those babies removed…
Is there a relative that can intervene? Calling child services sometimes is worst then the way they are living now
The thing about CPS is they always contact the mother and say I will be at your home on this date at this time. So if there is abuse you can bet your ass on that date at that time, the house will be clean she will be smiling and she will have threatened the older kids not to say a word. I would record her without her knowledge to get proof of how she speaks to her daughter. Stuff like that and present that to CPS.
Step up if what you say is true. Say something to the right people for the right reasons then stop being judgemental it does t help anyone
Surely the admin of this post know who posted it???
Those kids need child protection asap!!!
If the poster ain’t going to do it… Surely someone can!!!
No brainer you turn her and if you care one bit about children it’s your legal responsibility to do so
Then turn her in at least have them do a safety check on the kids
Call to report to child protective services, anonymously of course. I’d also start leaving ads and pamphlets around for several kinds of birth control.
CallChild Protective Services services. Report those things you cannot say on Facebook that you have personally seen. Get her on their radar. Report it to their schools so they have the kids on their radar. If she is your friend… counsel her bluntly. Get ready to lose your “friend”. You are right… the kids are the most important. Don’t let your friendship stand in the way of doing what’s best for them.
Kids need to come first in every f’d up situation
If you witness it and dont report it you mite as well be an accessory to it!
It’s your responsibility to report abuse if you witness it. Do not be complacent you’re the adult with a voice.
It’s a slippery slope, what with what CPS is doing to families, there has to be somewhere safe to report this to. CPS is the lesser of the two evils, until you try to get your life together, and then attempt to get your children back.
Why are you friends with this person?
Do you have proof of what your saying? If not, try to get it because you can present that to the police and or CPS.
Please speak up for those children. Report her. Who knows what else happens to those babies when no one is around.
Call child protective services
Report the b, i, itch to child services. FAQ her and her family/mates that aren’t saying shiz…
If you are a true friend then tell her how you feel terrible treatment of children poor we souls help them .
Report her to social services. Friend or no friend! I think you already know what you need to do.
Report her if you think it’s a problem
You can document everything take photos and report her
Call cps on her ass, she should not have custody of those children
Use you voice , save the children
Don’t take care of them but keep having them
How about calling in for a wellness check and not posting on FB🤷🏼♀️
Everybody can have a child, but that doesn’t mean everyone deserves the child. People should not be having kids if they do not want them, babies deserve so much better than the lives they get dealt with all because some people don’t know how to use protection.
Protect the kids ,get legal advice
Fuxk her and her feelings call cps. That shit isn’t right if none else will defend them you should.
I used to be a Foster parent.
Call CPS report everything you posted above . You can to this
anonymously.
Call child protection.
Then say something to her! Be those children’s voice! You not saying anything about it is doing exactly what the family is! If shes truly your friend she will understand!
Call Child Services don’t post on Facebook
Yes call CPS! If anything at least she’ll know someone else besides family is watching her and that alone may help her seek help.
Record mom’s verbal abuse if you can. Alert the school where her children attend. Call protective services. We are bound by law to report abuse.
Call the athourities. Get the children out before it’s too. Where is the real father of the children.
With what you have said, I believe you have a responsibility.
You need to call welfare !!! If you don’t you are condoning what she is doing !!
Call child protective services.
Unless the child is being molested sexually or tortured. I would say mind your own goddamn business.
It’s weird how everybody else doesn’t see this, only you … that’s a huge difference from “she a great mother” to this … but if it’s true, call CPS or speak up , I would’ve spoke up long ago
See if she will let u keep them for awhile she will be too busy with the baby …but if i were u i would recer a case worker to investigate those kids dont need to be mentally abused. …at least if a case worker comes in she maybe willing to stop because of the monitoring …
You answered your own question. “Children should always come first” Whatever you decide, I hope all works out for everyone.
Quit rewarding people for breeding, all the extra tax credits, money, WIC, food stamps, housing assistance etc should be cut in half and given to couple who choose not to reproduce. Popping out kids has become a career choice and guess what those kids are going to do when they grow up? The cycle repeats and and the burden becomes heavier generation after generation.
This is a no brainer you need to call child protective services and tell them everything I don’t care who she is
Turn her into welfare and child care let them investigate
Dont ignore get help these kids could get hurt …
All I’m gonna say is if you’re not a mother yourself…ssshhh
That’s what cps is for
I didn’t even read that apart from the start… first of all I wouldn’t ask for help on social media I would go the right routes just saying
Make the call, end the friendship
Holy shit sounds like my husband’s baby mama
