Angry

What should I do?


Ok well My boyfriends brother and wife are bad parents in my eyes. I cant stand the way his brother and his wife take care of there 1 yr old baby girl. Well His brother keeps smoking weed and having friends come over to get high with him, The other day me and my boyfriend went over to pick up some tools that he had borrowed and his brother was getting high in from of there daughter! It made me so mad! And this isnt a once in a while thing its all the time! And his brothers wife smokes weed also i dont think she has smoke while being pregnant but i no befor she got preggo with there second baby she smoked weed all the time and in front of there daughter! Im tired of just sitting around while there 1 yr old daughter is getting high! WHat do you guys think i should do? They have already had social services called on them last year so they have them on recored, should i call social services? What would you do in this position? His brother is 26 and his wife is 25 youd think after there first baby they would change. They also throw a ton of parties, last year when there baby was 4-5months they brought there baby to a party and left her crawling on the floor with an empty beer bottle in her mouth, I wanted to smack his wife and him...grrrr im so angry over this!I feel bad that they are bringing in another baby because they already suck at taking care of one now they have to deal with 2! let me know what you guys think i should do...

Hard situation esp from a outsider and not been able to see this with my own eyes its hard for me to give advise.

Personally if i thought that little girl was uncared for and in danger i wouldnt think twice about reporting this.

You do what you feel is right. x

If you think the child is at risk and by the sounds of it you do. It need to be reported to social services again otherwise its not fair on the child. Although it is easy for me to say that because i am not involved.

would not think twice about reporting them to be honest. ANY type of drug use in front/around children needs reporting as this behaviour is not acceptable and I would say the same with Alcohol too around children this too is not acceptable. I am talking about getting bladdered here not a drink or two.
