I adopted one of a sibling pair many years ago after having them boh for 2-3 years. I let the older one go as hse had behaviors hat were hurtful to the younger kids. Today she has an 18 month old daughter and lets her birthmother who signed away parental rights, walk this baby in a shopping cart through city streets all afternoon long. The baby doesn't eat and my daughter states that babe's mom says she can't stand her and is always yelling at her. So here we are watching as another soul is damaged. This woman can't care and feed for a cat let alone a child. It won't be long before the state is involved. Then the child is lost in a system. I wish I could do more now.

That baby, and every baby, deserves better. Sometimes life is too unfair...

Could be my grand daughter

Thanks, my daughter is also calling to give more info on Monday. It is breaking our hearts as we want this child here, safe with us. My daughter is only 19 in 13 days but she would be a good care provider and we would be here as primary. It's breaking our hearts.

thanks Tanya, sadly, we have made several reports and the police are really being ahh-animals holes. My daughter watched as her birth sister gave this 20 baby beer, watchd her get drunk, mommy thought it was funny. Kid is not fed, always yelled at and ignored. Police in city were so rude to me today when I brought babie's car seat to police station as to avoid conflict with birth mom. I explained my daughter had been threatened and we did not want altercation. My heart breaks so both for my daughter who sees her neice treated worse then most people treat their dogs, and as her birth sister uses her and throws her away because my daughter has morals. Long stories here, won't bore you. The bottom line is a really messed up world where almost any woman can bear children and then treat the magical special precious gift like poo.

Makes me think kidnapping is an option.

Thanks Katheryn, unfortunately it keeps getting worse. Mom is drunk and smoking pot all of the time and gives the baby alcohol. Police are worthless. Baby is constantly yelled at, not fed, and now I believe they have left the state. Poor little girl.
