If you were me, Would you report ?

Oh my dear... this is really a heartbreaking situation. It hurt me while I am reading those whole thread here.

What's about that bank who takes care of utilities bill automaic to transfer to companies for them? It's simple...

Yes, I agree that the parents are the one who are responsible to make sure everything safety and make sure that they get plenty of foods and money for the kids. I really don't understand why they trust the kids' Grandma to take care of them when you said that she has no common sense? She do nothing but just sat with 2 kids without paid the utilities bills, foods, or do SOMETHING to solve or whatever. ?

Yes, you doing thing right to report because Grandma do NOTHING to her both grandsons for past 3 days.

Kalisa, I would advise you to not jump yet until you listen parents's side first then... perhaps they did gave money to Grandma? perhap they thought they trust Grandma to take care of their kids? perhap Grandma forget that the parents gave money to her to take care of the kids? I am sure that they will thank you for save their kids' life if they learn that Grandma do NOTHING... (I hope my suspect will be correct)... If my suspect is wrong about the parents then I will disguit what and how they did to her poor kids alone with their Grandma like what you described in your previous posts.

Believe it or not... They paged other Deaf lady, they mentioned - The parents stayed in Florida other day (yesterday). They had a good time cruise blah blah... Did not ask her, how are the boys doing at all.. Can you imagine that...

They will fly down Boston at 6pm tonight, should be home by 8pm. I do not know what Social Worker would do with them. I have not go over their house last night, I was too exhausted work until 1am with emergency situation at group home.

I just found out that they will take limo tonight with champagne. Ugh... Unbelievable, they spend thousand dollars on luxury.

*speechless*

You said that they paged other Deaf lady how good time they are etc without mentioned how their boys are. Do you mean that Deaf lady see their boys time to time to know how their boys are doing? If not, why should they tell her how boys doing when she didn't see them? I would say to Deaf lady when I were boys' parents that 'we have great time etc. etc. but we still miss our boys very much and still thinking of them and hope they doing well...

I am surprised that they didn't say one word about their boys when they mentioned how good time they are... *speechless*

*nodding agreement*

We would not leave our boys alone for our pleasure until they are old enough and out of school. If we want to go vacation then our boys are always come with us.

When I was in USA as bridemaid at Angel & Roadrunner wedding last July 2007. My hubby did not go there with me but my own because one of parents should be there for our boys and their school etc. It's parental's responsilbe, not anyone.
 
The whole thing sounds so unreal, how stupid some people can be.

What happened to the grandmother that was supposed to be watching them?

Even the bill wasn't paid on time, there's always a grace period for utilities shut off unless you've missed payments before. That's why you usually have to deposit something when you get new service. This shows that there's a history of not paying bills -- taking a lavish vacation while not paying the bills shows that the CPS has good reason to take the kids.

I agree with you. It sound like the electricity have been off for some time which is appalling to me especially kids shivering in cold temps and rotten foods ? what are they suppose to eat? bugs? Hell no! This whole thing doesnt make any sense to me at all really. I hope everything will be straightened out. sigh!
 
All I know is, the more I read the more angry I get. Some people shouldn't have children!!! God bless those kids and I hope that life gets better for them now.
 
Wow! A luxury limo takes precedence over their kids? I cant imagine doing that to my kids. *shakes head*

As a teacher, I am wondering if the boys' school noticed anything funny or if the boys said anything to their teachers about their parents taking a trip and having no food nor electricity? Just wondering.
 
My support too! My best friend was a wonderful parent until
one of her children died from a terminal illness. He was 3
when he died and we had been best friends for 15 years.
I loved her very much. But then she turned to drugs, (meth)
and kids were being neglected. I had to testify against her
and in favor of her husband who I did not really like. She
hates me now, but the kids are safe. I am still very sad.
But I just keep telling myself the kids are safe.
 
Kalista...You did the right thing for those boys... their parents should be arrested by now... Kids are so precious....
 
Kalista did the right thing, no question there at all. For those of you who might hesitate, I remind you that we are all mandated reporters.
 
If you see something thats not right, even by not reporting it you could be held for neglect if your name ever comes up in an investigation. Anytime you see a situation where the seafety and well-being of children are in question, please call the authorities.
 
Since the parents choose to pay for their cruise & other stuff instead of their bills & stuff for their kids - I would defintely choose to call CPS & stuff. Even if she was my best friends - I rather try to protect the kids over worrying about saving my friendship with my best friend.

I have a few best friends. My #1 is my husband, of course. I lost one of my friends that turned into one of my best friends last year because of a huge messy issue that went on with her and some other people in my family - so we had to end the friendship & while I am sad that our friendship ended the way it did, I still miss her & the fun times we've had but I know it is best to end it. That's how you should feel about your best friend- it may just be best to let the friendship go if she's going to be pissed at you & stuff. She has to undrestand that what she did isn't right to her kids! :/

I believe you'll do the right thing! Good luck and update us on this whole situation.
 
I came in AD to check on this but no updates as of yet?? so I am still waiting.... I am curious to what the outcome of this ?
 
You did the right thing by calling DSS. did the boys go somewhere else do you know?


this is a true story... this happened 4 years ago, i think, in my hometown

there was 3 little kids.. at the age of 10, 7, and 5 living in an apartment. the mother dressed them up really good and told them that she would be back later. So the 3 kids stayed home. 6 days went by. the mother never came home. So the grandmother decided to go check on the boys and the mother to see if they're okay since the grandmother hasn't heard from them. the grandmother had an extra key so she comes in, all the lights were off. She found that the power has been cut off. as she called out to the grandkids and daughter, no response. the grandmother decided to check the bedrooms.. as she opened the bedroom, the oldest was "asleep" on the floor. There was no beds! They were basically sleeping on the floor with a pillow and blanket. so the grandmother goes and wakes him up. He was dead. she goes and checks the other 2 rooms.. the 7 year old was in his room.. dead.. 5 year old in his room... dead. :( so the grandmother calls 911.

the coroner said the 3 boys were laid on their back and had their arms perfectly set on the sides and their hands on the belly. as if someone had done that. so the autopsy ran. weeks went by. of course.. the mother was with her "boyfriend" and never came home. so they arrested the mother for murder.


so for the autopsy.. the boys died of starvation and hypothermia (froze from the cold)

Kalista.. you did the right thing. You followed your heart and you definitely did the right thing. Especially the 3 year old is just too young to be left for a week at home without the parents and let alone a 15 year old babysitting the 3 year old. well, of course the grandmother was there. but she's 70!!!! Its just so wrong.

Yes I agreed that Kalisa doing right thing to report because Grandma do nothing.

*goose bump* story... :tears:

Your story remind me of few years back thru the news.

A single mother prepared with full of foods and drink at her 2 toddlers´ bedroom and then lock them and went off for 2 weeks vacation with her boyfriend without ask anyone for watch them...

The neighbor heard the cries and thought it´s normal cries... ignored it.... it continue cries and cries and then quite.... no more cries... Neigbor suddenly remember that she haven´t see the mother around for weeks and it could be something happeend to her in the apartment? No answer so she called police to check... No answer, so they are force to break the door and found 2 toddlers dead with fifly foods and drink everywhere... Where´s mother? Nobody know... so they check with airports... They found her name on the list and got security to arrest her when she come home from her vacation. They arrested her... The mother cried and said that she do not intend to make them suffer to death that´s why she prepared plenty of foods and drink, toys, etc. then they can eat for whole 2 weeks and lock the door for their safety... She is wrong... She said nobody watch them not even Grandparent because she has no contact with them... :tears: She should take her toddlers with her to vacation instead of pleasure vacation with her boyfriend.
 
I am waiting on updating but I had a feeling that parents might be surprise by what was happening. Maybe we will know as soon as today or tomorrow. Just wait and see.
 
ohh gosh.. the story that Rebelgirl and liebling posted on here broke my heart.. made me cry... kids shouldnt suffer for this.. this is soo WRONG... why do some people do that?? thinking their kids will be ok? they are wrong! gosh.. God will punish them for what they did! :(
 
She said, We back home safe and I found out that why did you call them for? I heard alot problem with my mother when we were on cruise. What is going on? Everything is ok now, we had straight out.

I replied her back... You will have to ask your sister. We are very disappointed in you and your husband. I have no comment any further. I am surprised, you did not even thanks of our thoughtful of your boys for their Trick or Treat on Halloween.

She sounds piss off at me. I better back off and focus on my own family and life.

Let DSS and court take care of her family.
