Re: Some parents need...something. *another LONG story*
that's horrible, and hit's too close to home.
Not with the number of kids, but my sister has 3, and my mother and me raised them because she wasn't a much better mother than those childrens
Re: Some parents need...something. *another LONG story*
yeah, i took care of my little brother and sister ALOT when i was probably too young.... but i completely went against statistics and live my life about exactly opposite as my parents did! lol. they weren't so bad but there's a time to have fun and a time to be responsible... oh well.
Re: Some parents need...something. *another LONG story*
Thank goodness you intervened. Now hon make sure and insist on a statement being filed about what you saw and did with the Social Services people (and with the police department as well). Sometimes they are overworked and occasionally uncaring but the community has to stand up for these kids and make sure that the right thing is done for them.
Re: Some parents need...something. *another LONG story*
Yeah I pulled up the page on the CPS in my area and have to print out a form and fax it to them...And yeah sadly both the cops and CPS are over worked...but I will atleast call and make sure for one they got the report and 2 someone is doing something about it...it was nuts...It's one of those things you know sadly happens in this world...but its another to see it first hand...as a parent and know you cant do a thing about it other then let the officials know...so who knows...and yes I agree that there are no accidents and coincidences in this world...for some reason I was there at that time, lets hope it was for a good reason. It's still mind blowing and I cant stop thinking about it..I drive past that house every day...I'll for sure now keep my eyes on it...
