A 5 month old child home alone. What a horrible person. It's a shame you knew her but it seems like she thinks she's still a young dumb teen not a grown woman with responsibilities and a kid. Definition of peaking in high-school.
At least her drunkass was still sane enough to tell someone that the baby was home alone. I can't imagine what would've happened had he just been left there for lord knows how long.
Poor baby, would've been left until she called her mama for bail. Grandma was on her way immediately upon realizing there was an issue w the grandbaby. However, if mama didn't tell the cops, no one would've known the lil thing was left alone in the first place.
going from "my babys alone, i love him" to "i hate myself im gonna commit *S*" in the matter of seconds, tells me she just wants sympathy from the cops, no actual remorse or care for the child.
It's not necessary for sympathy. She could have realized how bad she messed up and thinking she could lose her kid can mess your head up. I'm not saying she's a good mother and leaving the child is inexcusable but she obviously does love the child; she is just young and loves herself more. Until you become a mother, you can never fully understand how much your responsibly changes and so quickly.
@j.m.beardsley473 saying that until you become a mother you wouldnt know..... tell me, if you are a mother, would you leave you months old baby at home alone while you dangerously drive drunk? She had a whole pregnancy to grow up and learn to put her child's life first, and not only did she not put her child first at all, she risked other peoples lives by driving drunk. I have no respect for drunk drivers...
@@j.m.beardsley473 If you become a mother and still don't understand your responsibilities then give your baby up for adoption. Give them a better chance at having a family that cares for them instead of a "mother" who leaves you in a crib starving and sitting in your own filth for hours on end.
@Fluff_Noodles Give up, man. You obviously don't understand. You really think all parents will just grow up and magically will be responsible just because they have a kid? You're tripping.
She’s lost herself, she needs help and someone to help her. It’s so unfortunate but in times like these, so much help needs to be had but she also needs to face the consequences first. It’s sad seeing this happen but stay safe. Check up on friends and family because you don’t know where anyone is at in life.
When I was a probation officer, there was a case in town where a lady left her 2 year old home alone to go get her nails done. She decided to try and rob the nail salon too and was arrested but she didn't tell anyone there was a child alone at her apartment. The baby spent almost 3 weeks alone, surviving on just what she could find in lower cabinets. Everyone at the office was seething about it and just praying she wasn't put on probation because none of us would have been able to be professional around her.
Unbelievable! It’s like she was HOPING her 2 year old would die, because how could anyone expect a toddler to survive that long? What a monster. I doubt I could’ve behaved professionally around her either.
I'm so glad there was police intervention. A young mother did this recently and went on a trip to Puerto Rico where the baby died of thirst and starvation. She was just sentenced to life in prison. Some people really don't deserve to be parents.
This story makes a pit in my stomach.... I've cried many tears over that poor baby. More than her own Mama probably has. I'm a Mom of 2 littles, and there is a HUGE difference between post partum depression, and just being a psycho/sociopath. That Mom is absolutely disgusting.... this one is too. My heart aches for the little girl that passed away, and this little boy... I hope he will be raised by people that actually love and care for him.
Telling the cops that you left your baby home alone with no supervision, to try and gain empathy points to get out of a DUI is a really really stupid thing to do. Also, just drink at home, it's so much cheaper and you can choose the music and entertainment lol.
Right. The price of one bar beer could get me a six pack at the gas station. Bars are a scam. Also you can't get hit with PI or DUI when you are already home.
Toddlers go to bed at like 7:00. Just wait till your kid is in bed. I'm a mom. I got a kid. I get it. But it's not like you have to wait extraordinarily late for them to go to sleep. Put your kid in bed, have your girls over, put on some music, go in the living room and have some drinks while bitching about your men. XD
It's shocking how many irritating and irresponsible parents drive drunk with their kids in the backseat or leave their kids at home alone to go get drunk or high... Or both. And then use them as a defense or to gain sympathy from the officers thinking they'll magically be un-arrested just because their kids are in the car... THE CAR THEY WERE DRIVING WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE! I seriously don't know how police deal with these types of people regularly, I would lose brain cells everytime.
My step sister went on a weekend bender and left her then 5 year old son home alone for the entire weekend. When her dad couldn't get ahold of her he knew something was up and sent the neighbours to check in. (He lives in a different city). Neighbours discovered the child home alone and called the cops. After everything CPS gave custody of her son to her Aunt. My step-sister blamed the Aunt claiming she "stole her son from her" somehow.
My 11 month old shakes when he cries even for a few minutes, knowing this little guy was left alone for HOURS in a saggy diaper and no food made my heart break, I am so so glad he was saved and put in his grandma's custody. This kind of thing seems to be happening more and more often lately, and it just makes me hold my kids tighter, I can't imagine a life without them so I don't understand how people can just choose to be so irresponsible and selfish. I hope she never gets her son back, she doesn't deserve the chance to abandon him to starve alone again.
Dude.... I've had an on/off alchol problem for three years and never ONCE have I been plastered in front of my kids, driven drunk, left my kids home alone, or anything. At worst, I've slept in from time to time after a bad night.. Drinking definitely lowers your inhibitions, but not so much that you don't understand shit like that is wrong and not ok nor is it any kind of excuse. I wouldn't leave my damn NINE year old home alone, let alone a 5 month old... And imo, drinking only lowers your inhibitions low enough to do things you were already capable of doing in the first place. I've been sober two weeks and two days now. I know it isn't long but it's huge for me since this past year its about the longest I've gone.
I had a problem too for years. I didn't have any kids yet so I was drunk constantly. That was not living and I made a lot of bad choices then. The best thing I did for myself was stop drinking completely. I'm a year and a half sober and just in time to be a parent to my newborn. You have to replace the urges with something more productive or healthy. You owe it yourself, and you can beat the habit.
@@SashimiJo well, it's a bit different since they came out of me so I really can't miss that... But, honestly, if I was a man and in one of my worst moments there is a possibility.. I hate to say that, but if it was possible, and there were times, I could sleep for days and wake up not knowing what day it was.. I'm sorry you're going through that, but I hope this might help a bit: alcoholics love and feel guilty like everyone, even though they don't show it. The alcohol isn't more important than you, it's more important than themselves and the guilt of waking up after blacking out can start that spiral all over again, especially when you've missed a holiday or a special occasion like a birthday, or ended up having to half ass something that was supposed to be special. It's never been you or anyone else. Alcohol is a great way to temporarily feel nothing and pretend like the pain doesn't exist, but it's no one's friend. I wish you all the best and healing my friend 💗
@@hollcheese 💗💕 thank you so much! I started out overcompensating with food, so now I'm getting back into exercise and writing. Hopefully I can stick through it. Congrats on your sobriety and new baby!!
The minute I heard those cries from the baby, my heart broke. I’m not a mom myself, but the idea of leaving a beautiful, innocent little life alone like that?! Absolutely enraging.
All I am is an uncle to 4. But I heard them cries and wanted to boot down the door through my monitor. Obviously glad the cops could hold back and get the keys rationally to avoid unnecessary damage and fright to the kid but...I bet the temptation was high.
The care and attention shown by the police is heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. What an awful situation the poor little man had found himself in. Hope life improves for him!
@@valoressbqiskrnrjbx5025 also just dont go day drinking period unless you have someone physically responsible to take care of the baby because even if she was home, she'd probably be too drunk to take care of the baby.
Listen up, folks. Being young is not an excuse to neglect your responsibilities as a parent. I'm just 21, going on 22, and I have two children under the age of 2. Yet, I manage to juggle being a full-time student, a full-time employee, and most importantly, a father. It's not an easy feat, but my wife and I make it work. We prioritize our babies over everything else, which means we don't get date nights often. But we are okay with that because our children come first. I always ensure that my wife and kids are fed before I even think about serving myself. Their needs take precedence over mine, and that's how it should be. These babies deserve the best, and it's our duty to provide them with that. Mistreating or abandoning them is despicable and unacceptable. If you choose to have a child, you must understand the consequences. Yes, the impact doesn't hit you until they are born, but you have to suck it up and nurture them. They will cry, break things, eat all your food, and make you go broke. But that's their job, and it's our job to take care of them and raise them. I don't care about your age, your past experiences, or where you are in life. If you choose to keep that baby, then you must take care of it. You don't have to be rich, but you must be a parent. Love that child and be the parent you wish you had or want to be. I never had a father, but I'm doing better than my biological and backup had ever to offer. These babies never deserve to be mistreated, and I won't stand for it. It's time to step up and be responsible parents.❤ In the famous words of Dane: "Taze'em!!!!"
Honestly I'm gona be 23 soon and I have 2 kids I never partied n what not but I actually can't understand how or why someone would leave there child alone especially babies and toddlers there's so many reports here of babies and toddlers missing or dying its heart breaking even daycare are leaving infants alone and there dying because they roll on there face or they are getting silently abused when I had my second son in 23 I got questioned out the booty by the health department asking if I leave my son alone and they always seem angry when I talk to them but personally I understand how parents leave there kids because I was one of those kids and it was horrifying to be left alone and abused etc but once the parents in trouble "oh no my babies" it's sad and I feel for kids that have to go through that it's heart breaking.
@powmegranate772 literally and one thing I hate is cps and dsf actually won't take kids even if there in bad places my sil is a drug addict her house is trashes so bad I can't believe cps let's the girls stay there around all that alcohol and what not the youngest is 8 now her teeth are all rotting out feom being fed sugar n junk and she talks about wanting to f dudes like her mommy last year she was doin dome dirty dancing on to the neighbors girls at my mils house it's depressing kids grow up with parents like this.
You are a good man, a good father and honestly i wish we could Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V more of you in this world. Too many neglectful people that treat babies like animals. Makes me viciously angry. Mercy is shown to those that dont deserve it.
@@powmegranate772 (Not to bring up the "sensitive subject" but...) Unfortunately, with abortion being banned in states throughout the US, we're going to be seeing more people who don't want children having them because they have no choice. 😢 Historically speaking, horrible things were done to young children and infants because abortion wasn't an option... No one wants to see that happen again. Abortion needs to remain accessible so people who aren't willing, unable, or don't want to be parents don't have to.
Grandma was clearly willing to watch him if she needed. Why wouldn’t she call and ask her to watch him?! That poor baby deserves so much better and I genuinely wish the best for him
That poor babe. Buff nearly tearing up when he saw the baby put me over the edge. I can't imagine making the choice to drink and drive, especially when I have a child waiting at home ALONE.
This made me cry. I hate parents who leave their babies all alone! What a horrible evil thing to do to a helpless innocent child that depends on you for not only survival, but comfort! THEY ARE NOT CATS! You can’t leave them all alone 🤦🏼♀️
The fact that she was like "I'm coming." the SECOND the cops asked where the child was makes me think this wasn not a one time thing from the daughter...
I can’t even leave my baby in the car when I go into the gas station let alone just walking out of the house knowing no one is there to watch him ….i can’t imagine how upset this baby was waking up to an empty house & having complete strangers come in your room expecting mommy. What was she thinking??
I can’t even go outside with my toddler if my baby is sleeping in the house. I don’t even like them crying for 1 minutes by themselves. I can’t actually comprehend this.
"Got my booze, my drinking, oh i should text Filicia and ask her what she wants from the liquor store on my way to the pool partay, ohmahgawd lawl its 11am and im already drunk, so quirky of me! Yay time to go have fun, bye bye baby, you be cool for 5 hours while mommy goes and gets drunk, have fun all alone YAY, DAY DRINKING!!! I'm having so much fun!! hahahahaha!" If i had to guess.
I'm the same exact way it disgusts me how someone can be this careless about a little kid they have no concept of the world around them it's so stupid seriously they can't defend for themselves and what if they left to look for you
Once I was sitting in Chipotle and saw a woman get her baby’s carrier out and bring it inside to get her order sitting on the pickup shelf. It took her longer to unbuckle and buckle the carrier than get her order. But it’s the right thing
This happened to someone i knew. this girl named Giselle in my sisters classes in high school. Shortly after graduating she had a kid and also attended university. One night she wanted to go to a party but couldn't find a babysitter, so she put the baby in the crib, got a towel and shoved it in the crack in the bottom of the door of the baby's room so no one would hear them crying, and left them in the apartment alone. fortunately the neighbor heard the baby and called the cops, unfortunately Giselle didn't get charged with anything but her child was removed from the home.
Did you see that woman who left her baby home alone for 18 days? No food or water? Rest in peace, baby Jailyn. It's people like this that make me want to implement mandatory parental exams
Honestly I agree 100% with this. I think parents should pass a psychiatric exam before legally being able to bring their child home and having a social worker check in periodically and randomly for wellness checks on the home for any families with a child under 18 living under their roof. As harsh and strict as that sounds too many kids get left in homes where they are neglected and physically or emotionally abused and it's not fair to them that their parents don't want to take responsibility for their actions. Plus if there are more strict rules it might deter those irresponsible parents from having kids in the first place.
@@weskersbutt. Man, the comnination of your pfp and that username... I have a body similar to this person, and it takes so much to tank me. There's no way she had one drink unless it was a triple or quadruple size LIT.
or have liver issues! I hate how much people be lying. Raised without standards or dignity or honesty or responsibility or accountability, just deny deny deny refuse lie lie lie deny lie.
Hopefully I don’t sound weird saying this, but you both come across as just good hearted, lovable dudes who would be awesome to hang out with. Good people.
I’m a mom and I absolutely cannot fathom how this even crossed her mind. What a sad excuse for a parent. I broke down at the sound of the poor baby crying from inside the empty house. Absolutely unforgivable for her to have left him. So grateful for those cops going in and caring for him.
right! i've helped my friend raise her daughter and it's just unimaginable being neglectful to your child; especially to this severity. hope the little one is in a much better situation!
I was NOT expecting the baby to be THAT little when I read the title of this video. I audibly gasped when I heard it was ONLY 5 months! Not that leaving your child home alone is appropriate at any age but babies that young need SO much hands on care and so frequently that I'm just stunned. Some people really shouldn't be able to have children.
They don't want to look bad in the picture, so they smile trying to look pretty or whatever. This, as you may know or have guessed, works very much against then in the courtroom.
i have the same story. not with the covid part, but when i burned out last year I accidentally found Ken (it was one of Felix's videos), but then I realised that I like more to watch Ken's and Dane' reactions. these videos with a lot of laugh and empathy, and Ken's way of thoughts just helped me to cope and restart. Will ever like them)
My mom was an alcoholic and pill popper til I was 10. As a 4/5 year old I would get dropped off at home by my dad who would immediately have to go back to work and every time I walked into the house my mom would be passed out on the living room floor or couch or her bed if she could make it up the stairs. I remember putting a blanket on her and stuffing a pillow under her head if she was on the ground. I would also climb up on the counter to grab two cups so I could put water in one and her favorite wine in the other and set it beside her for when she woke up. A 5 year old shouldn’t know how to do that but it’s made me mature a lot. I now currently struggle with my own drinking issues but I know when I have a kid, my baby is going to mean more than a poison that “numbs the pain”. I’m proud of anyone that at least is trying to get sober. It’s hard but you got this okay!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
30+ years over here, i dislike most alcohols i've tried since they burn my throat, i also only like sweet or sour drinks, so prefer lemonades, my vices are instead food and mindless entertainment, sounds like you were a nice kid though, sorry you had to grow up under those conditions
When I was with the Department of Children and Families, I had a case where a mom left her 2 y/o in the backseat of her car in the parking lot of a dive bar. After 3 hours of drinking, the bartender called her a cab. She couldn't tell the driver where she lived because she was so drunk, so he brought her back to the bar. Thank God he did because that's when the little boy was found sleeping on the backseat.
As a mom of a 1 yr old im absolutely sobbing for that baby. They dont sleep long, and most babies eat every 3 to 4 hours. He was alone, hungry, & confused. Im happy the police didnt wait any longer
It's crazy how many women have been caught doing this to their children with some of them even dying. Being childfree should be more normalized. Not everyone should have kids especially if they prioritize partying more than the health and well being of their literal children
I don't want kids at all, don't even like them in the slightest, and I'm still shook from this! I cannot believe the audacity of some people to call themselves "parents" when they do this kinda shit. I am so angry on his behalf, the poor little guy. Best wishes for you getting the family you want- you'll clearly be a good parent; you deserve a child of your own.
I'm a lightweight but those things are POTENT. I got 2 for my 23rd birthday because I thought 1 wasn't enough and I only managed to drink like half of 1 and I was pretty buzzed.
@@KirikazeChan If the buzzball tequilla has 15% alcohol then a big bottle of that same tequilla has 15% alcohol as well, it doesn't matter how big a bottle is. What matters is the quantity you drank.
@@MalignantGarden i hope she's not in that sort of situation that would be so awful for both her and the baby :( that's why i'm pro-choice. all the mental and emotional damage having a child that you don't want and then being forced to take care of it because of familiar or community shame or something else is awful
Right?? Mad props to the officers for going way above and beyond, bringing the kid out with carseat and diaper bag prepared to go to grandma's house and making sure he was fed. Wouldn't be awfully surprised if somebody changed his diaper, either. They treated him so gently, tried to calm him down, and saw to his needs. These are the type of police officers we need.
I never want to have a kid due to traumatic reasons, and I never liked kids to begin with, but never once would I ever think of leaving a child, unable to feed or defend itself, alone for hours. I have a baby nephew now, and ofc he’s over every week, and even though I can’t stand to be around a baby, I ALWAYS make sure everything is okay and make sure I’m there next to him if everyone is busy. This woman had no excuse as a damn mother to abandon her child like this. She could’ve called somebody to come watch her kid, or just not even go out because her child is her responsibility.
For me it’s because of my sexuality I’m aromantic but not sure if I’m asexual though I rather be on my own but, still I would still need to learn how to take care of someone in my family and also make sure they’re fine too
@@SisyphusSRB Because they aren't a baby anymore?? I don't understand this logic. Babies are expensive, messy, loud, sticky, needy, stinky, and literally incapable of showing any sort of gratitude. "They're just babies" is only an excuse to not hold any of these things against them. It is NOT an excuse for why every single person in the world should unconditionally love children.
@@animeartist888 You simply aren't fit to be a parent if you talk this way about babies. You aren't even a good human being if you hate on the most innocent humans, not poisoned by the concept of evil, babies are the purest humans out there. They cry and poop because we're human, that's how human babies act, that's why they need parents. I don't understand your logic of hating and not understanding YOUR OWN SPECIES.
@@animeartist888 I’m sorry but I’m not trying to be rude here but,you got carried away though I know it’s a hassle to take care of kids but the way you said it sounded a bit carried away,though I’m not trying to offend anyone that’s a dad or a mom here or being “parentist” whatever the term is but,I understand the part where you said “stinky” though I do have a OCD especially washing my hands though still,I’m not trying to be mean to you but the way you said it would offend those parents though yes,I respect your opinion that you don’t want to have kids same here and I probably can’t especially because I have autism which something’s can be a struggle for me so not only am I aromantic and planning on being on my own but,another reason that would make me struggle having kids would be having autism because it impacts me more but next time can you try to be more respectful so that no one gets mad I don’t want you to get ranted on or something
I'm so glad the baby got rescued and didn't go into the system, I can't imagine leaving a 5 month old alone like that... the way he was trembling broke my heart
The part that got me mad was when Buffpro said " I get she's young..." like no no no she's is 23! She knows right from wrong. That is a whole human you are responsible for.
Right. I had my son at 18. He’s almost 2. I had bad post partum depression & anxiety(worst I’ve ever experienced compared to anything I’ve gone through before) I could never leave my son alone. I don’t even like leaving him with anyone else at all. Being young is no excuse. She knew better & this poor baby had to go through this because of her💔💔
Right, we tend to try to science away peoples bad choices but 16 onward, with every major life achievement, the whole "too young or naive" shit gets old afterwhile. Are some taken advantage of sure, but sure as hell theres people wh9 know what they are doing trying to take advantage of your own naivety. If you can drink and drive and vote and pop out kids without people going good heavens! You are old enough to face the full blunt of the consequences of your own actions
This has been happening more often in recent years; moms leaving their babies and toddlers alone to party. Some have gone on vacation, and their kids starved to death!
I think it's just more widely publicized cause I've heard of these cases since I was young. I think it was just easier in the past to pretend your kid died of SIDS or something if you left them alone.
As someone who can’t give birth, do to medical reasons, it makes me sad and angry to. But even if I was able to birth children I wouldn’t do that, because I know that I wouldn’t be able to provide it with the things it needs unfortunately.
Hopefully Gran now has full custody of the baby. Absolutely broke my heart hearing the cry I was holding on to the hope she was too drunk to remember someone was actually with her baby
Buzzball’s are definitely efficient! I’ve got a super high tolerance and two of those gave me a huge buzz. Hopefully the kid’s father is a better parent and gets custody.
I don’t think they should’ve released the child to grandma, there’s no way she wasn’t in on that. I don’t know anyone who has access to someone else’s ring app at a residence they don’t live at. They definitely used that doorbell as a babysitter of sorts, a “well I can see the home on the app so I’m watching him” mindset. Any normal grandma would be telling the cops to bust that door down and get the baby or questioning further on the situation as surely they’d ask what they mean they’ve arrested their child and are here to get the baby wondering why her child wasn’t with their grandchild, she knew exactly what it was about and that that child was home alone.
My theory is that they live together, and the daughter was supposed to stay home while her mom was at work or whatever. But she got so thirsty her brain broke and she forgot she had a baby to care for and she left without telling her mom. Leaving that poor little dude home alone. 😢
@@c4tl4dy76 this is more than likely the scenario. I cant see a 23 y/o owning a home, yes, it happens but I cant see this particular one accomplishing that. Its most likely grams house and kid moved in to have mom help with the baby.
I wouldn't make such assumptions without more proof. This is just mean. Maybe she thought the mom and baby were away since mom wasn't answering the door, this is what I think most people would think if I had to wager. Plus I mean she immediately said she was on the way without hesitation, didn't even ask what it was about. Couldn't ask for anything better IMO. And it could really go either way. I just prefer to assume people's innocence until enough evidence is procured to actually make them censurable, otherwise I just look like an a**hole.
Oh so this doesn't only happen in South Africa cz we have seen a rise of these cases where these"mums" leave their babies to go partying, one even threw the baby in the river so she can go party, one went to a party and the house was somehow caught on fire the kids died, on went partying left a 2mnth old alone and a guy at that party left to go SA the 2mnth old it's wild
ban alcohol. alcohol is the worst, brings out the dumbest people too. if those mom smoked weed they wouldnt even want to leave no where and be way too paranoied to stop holding their infant
As a single mom who raised 3 children and helps others who were like me, this leaving kids alone is nothing new and, unfortunately, happens a LOT! Even mentioned historically. A lack of a support system makes the chances of this happening much more likely. And they want to outlaw abortion. Who the hell will pay for it all. Rich people are not thinking it through at all. Pretty soon, we will have gangs of homeless kids on the streets like in 3rd world countries that people can exploit too. Probably the rich who made the laws. I never left my kids, no one should. Think of how many go unreported?
So what's your explanation for all of the abandoned/neglected kids up to this point? When abortion has been federally available across the US? If your supposition about people aborting their unwanted kids was true, there wouldn't be any, would there? The simple fact is that these people DO want their kids or at least THINK they want kids. And if they didn't, they could give them up for adoption immediately after birth or up to a year. Really young kids like that are almost immediately adopted. There's a massive waiting list of people who want little babies because they don't carry the trauma that older children do, and don't have the yo-yo yank back and forth with CPS taking them out of stable foster homes to go back to unstable bio homes. There's a lot wrong with our current system, but none of your comment is correct.
0:57 They used to sell buzz balls at CVS and stopped in 2010. I would’ve been 8 or 9 at the time, and I asked my Grandpa if I could get one, cause I thought it was a soda. He replied, “If I get you one of those, you’ll end up with a public intoxication charge 2 minutes after drinking it.” I thought it was just a funny way to say, “You’re too young,” at the time. I looked at the ingredients in one recently, and he wasn’t kidding.
As someone who has a 4 month old at home, this breaks my heart. We’re not rich but my husband and I work very hard to make sure we can pay someone to take care of our child while we’re at work. 😢 I can’t even imagine leaving my sleeping child at the room alone for more than 10 minutes.
My former next door neighbor did this. I had just come back from dropping off my older son at school and was getting my baby out of his carseat when two little girls both looked less than 3 the younger maybe around 1, walked out of the apartment next to mine in diapers and just saying "mama?" I went to check the apartment after I called to see if someone was in there and no adult to be seen. I called the police. Needless to say she was arrested when she finally did show up. Turns out she'd left them alone all night to go clubbing with her sister and it wasn't the first time, just the first she had been caught. Last i heard girls were safe with relative and mom in jail.
She probably cried in front of a judge and got leniency. I couldn't be a judge, especially with people like that. She made the full choice to get wasted, get behind the wheel, and leave her defenseless kid at home alone. No leniency whatsoever from me, cause she'd just do it all over again.
This doesn't sound too far off from my own situation when I was little. Ended up finding out via eavesdropping when I was 14 into family conversations that my mom took me home after I was born. Had to stay in the hospital for a few months, so I believe I was also somewhere around 5 months as well. She ended up partying and leaving me home alone on the bed, my grandmother didnt find out til two days later. She was surprised I didn't fall off it or anything since it wasnt a crib, it was an actual bed. Not surprising seeing how my mom proceeded to raise me the few years I did end up staying with her when I was little. Total neglect, we didnt have conversations and she would snap and get pissed at me for even looking at her, god forbid i would try and start a conversation. Cops were a usual reoccurrance every other week or so. On top of that she expected me to take care of my three younger brothers when I was only around 7. I was a "brat" and a "bad older sibling" if i didnt feed them or entertain them the whole day while she just slept or smoked. And if i wasn't in the mood, she'd lock me in my room for the whole day for being said "brat". Safe to say now at 20, even if she tries to make up for all shes done, shes still a piece of shit. I hate parents like these.
Sounds like you're better off just going no-contact at this point. She never wanted to talk to you, so why should you talk to her? Unless you're (unfortunately) still living with her.
Sadly this is gonna become more common now that Roe v Wade overturned. People who arnt ready or just plain shouldn't or dont want to have kids, will get stuck with the sudden massive responsibility and expectations. Neglect and abuse is often the result of too much pressure and not enough support. It takes a lot of willpower to suddenly put your own wants and vices aside for someone else and sadly not everyone is willing to do that. Not everyone is rasied able to do that. And this is the sad results of that lack of will.Lives ruined. Reputations lost. Families broken. All for a buzz that could have been delivered to the house via doordash.
That made me cry. Babies aren't meant to be alone.... they are the center of the universe in their minds, and why shouldn't they? They are supposed to be the center of the universe when you're a parent. There's something so dirty and wrong with abandoning a child. It's just not in our evolution at all. She's a freak of nature for doing that to her baby, she's so twisted and strange for that.
just saw another video about a mom leave her 16 months old baby for a 10 days trip and killed the baby, some people need to get a license in order to allow having baby
Sad as it is to say, I really do wish we could gatekeep parenthood like that. We gatekeep it for adoption. Cars, guns, liquor, smokes, tattoos... We gatekeep all of those. But raising a tiny human gets left to whoever is lucky enough to get knocked up? Shouldn't we have some kind of periodic, random child welfare checks for new parents that *doesn't* rely on tips about abuse already happening?
I mean yea alcoholics and people partying drink all day. My friends dad (who was an alcoholic) used to stop and get beers at the store on the way to work at 6 pm 🤔 and he would drink on the way home after work too from what I remember them telling me about him. Edit: When I say used to this is someone I knew in high school. Not really sure what her parents do these days or how all that worked out for them. Been a real long time since I talked to her or her family.
you say that like anyone would think there was a safer time for drunk driving. also being a small town has no bearing on the time or day of someone crashing. i must be missing something. as small American towns are pretty notorious for drunk boomers
My grandmother told me the story of how she walked outside while I was taking a nap on the bed at a few months old. The door shut behind her and she didn’t realize it was locked. She was freaking out and ran to get help. I woke up and was crying while she got a neighbor to help get in. She was so worried and I was not alone for long, I can’t imagine someone leaving their baby by itself for any reason
@@vincemarenger7122 no the baby did not survive… it was a horrible story! The mom had posted pics of herself on the beaches of Puerto Rico and all the while her daughter is sitting home alone In a pack n play with only 2 bottles ….2 bottles!!!! At one point u can hear the baby crying on the ring doorbell…outside… that did it for me, I cried too.. mom , ok well that POS got life no parole
As both a father and an alcoholic with just shy of 7 years without a drink, this one was very hard to watch. Part of me felt like I had to, as a reminder. I stopped drinking because I didn't want my daughters to remember me as pathetic drunk! I have worked hard to get to a much happier and healthier place for me and her, and am thankful every single day I still get to have her in my life. (But this ain't about me!) More than anything I sincerely hope that kid is safe, and whoever is closest, someone please hug Dane for me! He said exactly how I felt and I needed one, too!
Holy shit I went to high school with her. Did not know this is where she ended up. ARIZONA IS A WILD RIDE
Did she have a drinking problem then? She’s got that “23 going on 50 look”
that is crazy, small world
I knew this was in AZ just looking at the landscape... I hope she will not have anymore kids
A 5 month old child home alone. What a horrible person. It's a shame you knew her but it seems like she thinks she's still a young dumb teen not a grown woman with responsibilities and a kid. Definition of peaking in high-school.
this was Arizona?! why did the officers take the baby outside?!
At least her drunkass was still sane enough to tell someone that the baby was home alone. I can't imagine what would've happened had he just been left there for lord knows how long.
exactly what I was thinking
Probably until mom got home, which probably wasn't for another three hours.
@@zarasbazaar Right? Sounded like she was at work but the way she reacted to IMMEDIATELY come home was reassuring!
Poor baby, would've been left until she called her mama for bail. Grandma was on her way immediately upon realizing there was an issue w the grandbaby. However, if mama didn't tell the cops, no one would've known the lil thing was left alone in the first place.
@@tiffanyann6497 don't refer to that thing as "mama". she's nothing but a bitch
going from "my babys alone, i love him" to "i hate myself im gonna commit *S*" in the matter of seconds, tells me she just wants sympathy from the cops, no actual remorse or care for the child.
It's not necessary for sympathy. She could have realized how bad she messed up and thinking she could lose her kid can mess your head up. I'm not saying she's a good mother and leaving the child is inexcusable but she obviously does love the child; she is just young and loves herself more. Until you become a mother, you can never fully understand how much your responsibly changes and so quickly.
@@j.m.beardsley473 Did we see the same woman? Where is this "obvious" love for her child?? I don't see any love anywhere in this........
@j.m.beardsley473 saying that until you become a mother you wouldnt know..... tell me, if you are a mother, would you leave you months old baby at home alone while you dangerously drive drunk? She had a whole pregnancy to grow up and learn to put her child's life first, and not only did she not put her child first at all, she risked other peoples lives by driving drunk. I have no respect for drunk drivers...
@@j.m.beardsley473 If you become a mother and still don't understand your responsibilities then give your baby up for adoption. Give them a better chance at having a family that cares for them instead of a "mother" who leaves you in a crib starving and sitting in your own filth for hours on end.
@Fluff_Noodles Give up, man. You obviously don't understand. You really think all parents will just grow up and magically will be responsible just because they have a kid? You're tripping.
Seeing that poor baby shaking in his crib made me burst into tears. Some folks don't deserve to be parents.
Hearing him cry made me cry😭
I can’t imagine
it blows my mind she didn’t even ask ANYONE to watch him either, I can’t imagine how frightening that is for that baby :(
I'm a mom. And I can't tell you the level of rage I feel right now.
My heart hurt so much, I am literally fighting back tears. I'm so thankful for those officers.
I'm childfree by choice and that melted my cold heart as well
Hearing that baby cry and seeing him shaking, shattered my heart. I will never understand how someone can neglect (or be cruel) to a child.
it made me feel relieved cuz i knew it would be fine. i was worried how long she actually left him alone...
Some "parents" just dont care unfortunately
She’s lost herself, she needs help and someone to help her. It’s so unfortunate but in times like these, so much help needs to be had but she also needs to face the consequences first. It’s sad seeing this happen but stay safe. Check up on friends and family because you don’t know where anyone is at in life.
When I was a probation officer, there was a case in town where a lady left her 2 year old home alone to go get her nails done. She decided to try and rob the nail salon too and was arrested but she didn't tell anyone there was a child alone at her apartment. The baby spent almost 3 weeks alone, surviving on just what she could find in lower cabinets. Everyone at the office was seething about it and just praying she wasn't put on probation because none of us would have been able to be professional around her.
There's a video about a mother going on vacation leaving her child in the house to die. Her defense attorney claimed it was because of her depression.
@@IWantToPetYourDoginsane and how can any one be so horrible
@@IWantToPetYourDog Bruh I have depression and my cat is my reason to go on. I don't see how that's an excuse for neglecting a child 😭
Unbelievable! It’s like she was HOPING her 2 year old would die, because how could anyone expect a toddler to survive that long? What a monster. I doubt I could’ve behaved professionally around her either.
@@IWantToPetYourDogand she recently got sentenced to life with no chance of parole 🙌
I'm so glad there was police intervention. A young mother did this recently and went on a trip to Puerto Rico where the baby died of thirst and starvation. She was just sentenced to life in prison. Some people really don't deserve to be parents.
She was smiling in the courtroom. Disgusting!
The woman also had the nerve to go into court and say that her baby would forgive her…
This story makes a pit in my stomach.... I've cried many tears over that poor baby. More than her own Mama probably has. I'm a Mom of 2 littles, and there is a HUGE difference between post partum depression, and just being a psycho/sociopath. That Mom is absolutely disgusting.... this one is too. My heart aches for the little girl that passed away, and this little boy... I hope he will be raised by people that actually love and care for him.
I've never been a supporter of the death penalty, but that case made me reconsider my position.
I knew this would be bad, obviously. But leaving a five month old alone....? 😢 my heart broke even more.
Mine too.
A poor baby that literally can’t live without her!!!
Sadly since she’s a woman she’ll get a few days in jail and probably still get custody, and the father won’t
@@BD-1-And-Only The custody went to the grandma?
@@TheSecondOne123 Rare dub for the family courts, although the father should have gotten custody to begin with
Telling the cops that you left your baby home alone with no supervision, to try and gain empathy points to get out of a DUI is a really really stupid thing to do.
Also, just drink at home, it's so much cheaper and you can choose the music and entertainment lol.
It’s cheaper and you can choose the music and entertainment at a pool too lol. What you meant to say is “you have no reason to leave” or something lol
@@4.5yearsclean your profile name is as stupid as your comment ❤
Right. The price of one bar beer could get me a six pack at the gas station. Bars are a scam. Also you can't get hit with PI or DUI when you are already home.
But also doesn't drink if you're alone with a toddler at home!
Toddlers go to bed at like 7:00. Just wait till your kid is in bed. I'm a mom. I got a kid. I get it. But it's not like you have to wait extraordinarily late for them to go to sleep. Put your kid in bed, have your girls over, put on some music, go in the living room and have some drinks while bitching about your men. XD
It's shocking how many irritating and irresponsible parents drive drunk with their kids in the backseat or leave their kids at home alone to go get drunk or high... Or both.
And then use them as a defense or to gain sympathy from the officers thinking they'll magically be un-arrested just because their kids are in the car... THE CAR THEY WERE DRIVING WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE!
I seriously don't know how police deal with these types of people regularly, I would lose brain cells everytime.
My step sister went on a weekend bender and left her then 5 year old son home alone for the entire weekend. When her dad couldn't get ahold of her he knew something was up and sent the neighbours to check in. (He lives in a different city). Neighbours discovered the child home alone and called the cops. After everything CPS gave custody of her son to her Aunt. My step-sister blamed the Aunt claiming she "stole her son from her" somehow.
@@DeadlyTiger Good lord. That's awful, I hope he's doing well now and is happy. Poor kid.

My 11 month old shakes when he cries even for a few minutes, knowing this little guy was left alone for HOURS in a saggy diaper and no food made my heart break, I am so so glad he was saved and put in his grandma's custody. This kind of thing seems to be happening more and more often lately, and it just makes me hold my kids tighter, I can't imagine a life without them so I don't understand how people can just choose to be so irresponsible and selfish. I hope she never gets her son back, she doesn't deserve the chance to abandon him to starve alone again.
Or she could see her son again when he is 18 or 20.... and hear the kind of choice words he would say to her lol.
the way those cops rushed in for the baby and how comforting and caring they were was beautiful especially in contrast to how sad the situation is
Dude.... I've had an on/off alchol problem for three years and never ONCE have I been plastered in front of my kids, driven drunk, left my kids home alone, or anything. At worst, I've slept in from time to time after a bad night..
Drinking definitely lowers your inhibitions, but not so much that you don't understand shit like that is wrong and not ok nor is it any kind of excuse. I wouldn't leave my damn NINE year old home alone, let alone a 5 month old... And imo, drinking only lowers your inhibitions low enough to do things you were already capable of doing in the first place.
I've been sober two weeks and two days now. I know it isn't long but it's huge for me since this past year its about the longest I've gone.
Would you ever have missed your child’s birth because of alcohol? My dad did and I don’t understand it.
I had a problem too for years. I didn't have any kids yet so I was drunk constantly. That was not living and I made a lot of bad choices then. The best thing I did for myself was stop drinking completely. I'm a year and a half sober and just in time to be a parent to my newborn.
You have to replace the urges with something more productive or healthy. You owe it yourself, and you can beat the habit.
I know the struggle and I am so proud of you!
@@SashimiJo well, it's a bit different since they came out of me so I really can't miss that... But, honestly, if I was a man and in one of my worst moments there is a possibility.. I hate to say that, but if it was possible, and there were times, I could sleep for days and wake up not knowing what day it was..
I'm sorry you're going through that, but I hope this might help a bit: alcoholics love and feel guilty like everyone, even though they don't show it. The alcohol isn't more important than you, it's more important than themselves and the guilt of waking up after blacking out can start that spiral all over again, especially when you've missed a holiday or a special occasion like a birthday, or ended up having to half ass something that was supposed to be special. It's never been you or anyone else. Alcohol is a great way to temporarily feel nothing and pretend like the pain doesn't exist, but it's no one's friend.
I wish you all the best and healing my friend 💗
@@hollcheese 💗💕 thank you so much! I started out overcompensating with food, so now I'm getting back into exercise and writing. Hopefully I can stick through it.
Congrats on your sobriety and new baby!!
The minute I heard those cries from the baby, my heart broke.
I’m not a mom myself, but the idea of leaving a beautiful, innocent little life alone like that?! Absolutely enraging.
All I am is an uncle to 4. But I heard them cries and wanted to boot down the door through my monitor. Obviously glad the cops could hold back and get the keys rationally to avoid unnecessary damage and fright to the kid but...I bet the temptation was high.
The care and attention shown by the police is heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. What an awful situation the poor little man had found himself in. Hope life improves for him!
Don’t hate on the tequilarita buzzballs those are my favorite 😭
Girl must have had MANY of them cause I’d never be that messed up after one
She had 2x pint of Mojito.
Just dont leave your kid home alone to go day drinking and you're fine. Golden, actually.
@@valoressbqiskrnrjbx5025 also just dont go day drinking period unless you have someone physically responsible to take care of the baby because even if she was home, she'd probably be too drunk to take care of the baby.
Listen up, folks. Being young is not an excuse to neglect your responsibilities as a parent. I'm just 21, going on 22, and I have two children under the age of 2. Yet, I manage to juggle being a full-time student, a full-time employee, and most importantly, a father. It's not an easy feat, but my wife and I make it work. We prioritize our babies over everything else, which means we don't get date nights often. But we are okay with that because our children come first. I always ensure that my wife and kids are fed before I even think about serving myself. Their needs take precedence over mine, and that's how it should be. These babies deserve the best, and it's our duty to provide them with that. Mistreating or abandoning them is despicable and unacceptable.
If you choose to have a child, you must understand the consequences. Yes, the impact doesn't hit you until they are born, but you have to suck it up and nurture them. They will cry, break things, eat all your food, and make you go broke. But that's their job, and it's our job to take care of them and raise them. I don't care about your age, your past experiences, or where you are in life. If you choose to keep that baby, then you must take care of it. You don't have to be rich, but you must be a parent. Love that child and be the parent you wish you had or want to be. I never had a father, but I'm doing better than my biological and backup had ever to offer. These babies never deserve to be mistreated, and I won't stand for it. It's time to step up and be responsible parents.❤
In the famous words of Dane: "Taze'em!!!!"
I wish every parent had your mentality. People who don’t want to put their kids first should not have them.
Honestly I'm gona be 23 soon and I have 2 kids I never partied n what not but I actually can't understand how or why someone would leave there child alone especially babies and toddlers there's so many reports here of babies and toddlers missing or dying its heart breaking even daycare are leaving infants alone and there dying because they roll on there face or they are getting silently abused when I had my second son in 23 I got questioned out the booty by the health department asking if I leave my son alone and they always seem angry when I talk to them but personally I understand how parents leave there kids because I was one of those kids and it was horrifying to be left alone and abused etc but once the parents in trouble "oh no my babies" it's sad and I feel for kids that have to go through that it's heart breaking.
@powmegranate772 literally and one thing I hate is cps and dsf actually won't take kids even if there in bad places my sil is a drug addict her house is trashes so bad I can't believe cps let's the girls stay there around all that alcohol and what not the youngest is 8 now her teeth are all rotting out feom being fed sugar n junk and she talks about wanting to f dudes like her mommy last year she was doin dome dirty dancing on to the neighbors girls at my mils house it's depressing kids grow up with parents like this.
You are a good man, a good father and honestly i wish we could Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V more of you in this world. Too many neglectful people that treat babies like animals. Makes me viciously angry. Mercy is shown to those that dont deserve it.
@@powmegranate772 (Not to bring up the "sensitive subject" but...) Unfortunately, with abortion being banned in states throughout the US, we're going to be seeing more people who don't want children having them because they have no choice. 😢 Historically speaking, horrible things were done to young children and infants because abortion wasn't an option... No one wants to see that happen again. Abortion needs to remain accessible so people who aren't willing, unable, or don't want to be parents don't have to.
God bless these wonderful and kind officers that are looking after and caring for the sweet baby until his grandmother comes to get him
Grandma was clearly willing to watch him if she needed. Why wouldn’t she call and ask her to watch him?! That poor baby deserves so much better and I genuinely wish the best for him
Child neglect is a lot more common than people realize. I work in child care and have seen some horrible stuff. I had to call CPS a few times.
That poor babe. Buff nearly tearing up when he saw the baby put me over the edge. I can't imagine making the choice to drink and drive, especially when I have a child waiting at home ALONE.
This made me cry. I hate parents who leave their babies all alone! What a horrible evil thing to do to a helpless innocent child that depends on you for not only survival, but comfort! THEY ARE NOT CATS! You can’t leave them all alone 🤦🏼♀️
There's a video about a mother going on vacation leaving her child in the house to die. Her defense attorney claimed it was because of her depression.
I want to know what the Grandma had to say about her daughter's actions.
The fact that she was like "I'm coming." the SECOND the cops asked where the child was makes me think this wasn not a one time thing from the daughter...
@@kitkatboardit honestly explains the daughter.
I can’t even leave my baby in the car when I go into the gas station let alone just walking out of the house knowing no one is there to watch him ….i can’t imagine how upset this baby was waking up to an empty house & having complete strangers come in your room expecting mommy. What was she thinking??
I can’t even go outside with my toddler if my baby is sleeping in the house. I don’t even like them crying for 1 minutes by themselves. I can’t actually comprehend this.
"Got my booze, my drinking, oh i should text Filicia and ask her what she wants from the liquor store on my way to the pool partay, ohmahgawd lawl its 11am and im already drunk, so quirky of me! Yay time to go have fun, bye bye baby, you be cool for 5 hours while mommy goes and gets drunk, have fun all alone YAY, DAY DRINKING!!! I'm having so much fun!! hahahahaha!"
If i had to guess.
I'm the same exact way it disgusts me how someone can be this careless about a little kid they have no concept of the world around them it's so stupid seriously they can't defend for themselves and what if they left to look for you
Once I was sitting in Chipotle and saw a woman get her baby’s carrier out and bring it inside to get her order sitting on the pickup shelf. It took her longer to unbuckle and buckle the carrier than get her order. But it’s the right thing
This happened to someone i knew. this girl named Giselle in my sisters classes in high school. Shortly after graduating she had a kid and also attended university. One night she wanted to go to a party but couldn't find a babysitter, so she put the baby in the crib, got a towel and shoved it in the crack in the bottom of the door of the baby's room so no one would hear them crying, and left them in the apartment alone. fortunately the neighbor heard the baby and called the cops, unfortunately Giselle didn't get charged with anything but her child was removed from the home.
Oh my god!!!!!
Oh my gosh!!!
Did you see that woman who left her baby home alone for 18 days? No food or water? Rest in peace, baby Jailyn. It's people like this that make me want to implement mandatory parental exams
Honestly I agree 100% with this. I think parents should pass a psychiatric exam before legally being able to bring their child home and having a social worker check in periodically and randomly for wellness checks on the home for any families with a child under 18 living under their roof. As harsh and strict as that sounds too many kids get left in homes where they are neglected and physically or emotionally abused and it's not fair to them that their parents don't want to take responsibility for their actions. Plus if there are more strict rules it might deter those irresponsible parents from having kids in the first place.

right! i've helped my friend raise her daughter and it's just unimaginable being neglectful to your child; especially to this severity. hope the little one is in a much better situation!
I was NOT expecting the baby to be THAT little when I read the title of this video. I audibly gasped when I heard it was ONLY 5 months! Not that leaving your child home alone is appropriate at any age but babies that young need SO much hands on care and so frequently that I'm just stunned. Some people really shouldn't be able to have children.
3:18 is this her mug shot?? Who smiles after getting a DUI and a child endangerment charge?!
Insane b*tch*s with absolutely zero sense of shame, or even a basic personal responsibility or dignity. That's who.

I owe these guys alot, they helped me go through Covid, they would put out a video every day and it helped me stay sane then i will forever be a fan
i have the same story. not with the covid part, but when i burned out last year I accidentally found Ken (it was one of Felix's videos), but then I realised that I like more to watch Ken's and Dane' reactions. these videos with a lot of laugh and empathy, and Ken's way of thoughts just helped me to cope and restart. Will ever like them)
My mom was an alcoholic and pill popper til I was 10. As a 4/5 year old I would get dropped off at home by my dad who would immediately have to go back to work and every time I walked into the house my mom would be passed out on the living room floor or couch or her bed if she could make it up the stairs. I remember putting a blanket on her and stuffing a pillow under her head if she was on the ground. I would also climb up on the counter to grab two cups so I could put water in one and her favorite wine in the other and set it beside her for when she woke up. A 5 year old shouldn’t know how to do that but it’s made me mature a lot. I now currently struggle with my own drinking issues but I know when I have a kid, my baby is going to mean more than a poison that “numbs the pain”. I’m proud of anyone that at least is trying to get sober. It’s hard but you got this okay!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
30+ years over here, i dislike most alcohols i've tried since they burn my throat, i also only like sweet or sour drinks, so prefer lemonades,

Crying my eyes out after seeing that baby shaking all alone. And Dane looks just as heartbroken
I was adopted at 2 weeks old. My bioparents left me in a closet while they partied. Very thankful I was saved by the people I call mom and dad now.
When I was with the Department of Children and Families, I had a case where a mom left her 2 y/o in the backseat of her car in the parking lot of a dive bar. After 3 hours of drinking, the bartender called her a cab. She couldn't tell the driver where she lived because she was so drunk, so he brought her back to the bar. Thank God he did because that's when the little boy was found sleeping on the backseat.

It's crazy how many women have been caught doing this to their children with some of them even dying. Being childfree should be more normalized. Not everyone should have kids especially if they prioritize partying more than the health and well being of their literal children
As a person who’s been trying to conceive for a while now this hits me so hard. I would happily take that lil baby.
I don't want kids at all, don't even like them in the slightest, and I'm still shook from this! I cannot believe the audacity of some people to call themselves "parents" when they do this kinda shit.

Also, major props to the officer who got him and was so sweet and soft with him. ❤ That's a difficult situation to be in..
Once they heard the child they were like sue me im going in
Right?? Mad props to the officers for going way above and beyond, bringing the kid out with carseat and diaper bag prepared to go to grandma's house and making sure he was fed. Wouldn't be awfully surprised if somebody changed his diaper, either. They treated him so gently, tried to calm him down, and saw to his needs. These are the type of police officers we need.
I never want to have a kid due to traumatic reasons, and I never liked kids to begin with, but never once would I ever think of leaving a child, unable to feed or defend itself, alone for hours. I have a baby nephew now, and ofc he’s over every week, and even though I can’t stand to be around a baby, I ALWAYS make sure everything is okay and make sure I’m there next to him if everyone is busy.
This woman had no excuse as a damn mother to abandon her child like this. She could’ve called somebody to come watch her kid, or just not even go out because her child is her responsibility.
For me it’s because of my sexuality I’m aromantic but not sure if I’m asexual though I rather be on my own but, still I would still need to learn how to take care of someone in my family and also make sure they’re fine too
How can you hate babies tho? They're just babies, you were a baby too.
@@SisyphusSRB Because they aren't a baby anymore?? I don't understand this logic. Babies are expensive, messy, loud, sticky, needy, stinky, and literally incapable of showing any sort of gratitude. "They're just babies" is only an excuse to not hold any of these things against them. It is NOT an excuse for why every single person in the world should unconditionally love children.
@@animeartist888 You simply aren't fit to be a parent if you talk this way about babies.
You aren't even a good human being if you hate on the most innocent humans, not poisoned by the concept of evil, babies are the purest humans out there.
They cry and poop because we're human, that's how human babies act, that's why they need parents.
I don't understand your logic of hating and not understanding YOUR OWN SPECIES.
@@animeartist888 I’m sorry but I’m not trying to be rude here but,you got carried away though I know it’s a hassle to take care of kids but the way you said it sounded a bit carried away,though I’m not trying to offend anyone that’s a dad or a mom here or being “parentist” whatever the term is but,I understand the part where you said “stinky” though I do have a OCD especially washing my hands though still,I’m not trying to be mean to you but the way you said it would offend those parents though yes,I respect your opinion that you don’t want to have kids same here and I probably can’t especially because I have autism which something’s can be a struggle for me so not only am I aromantic and planning on being on my own but,another reason that would make me struggle having kids would be having autism because it impacts me more but next time can you try to be more respectful so that no one gets mad I don’t want you to get ranted on or something
I'm so glad the baby got rescued and didn't go into the system, I can't imagine leaving a 5 month old alone like that...
the way he was trembling broke my heart
The part that got me mad was when Buffpro said " I get she's young..." like no no no she's is 23! She knows right from wrong. That is a whole human you are responsible for.
Right. I had my son at 18. He’s almost 2. I had bad post partum depression & anxiety(worst I’ve ever experienced compared to anything I’ve gone through before) I could never leave my son alone. I don’t even like leaving him with anyone else at all. Being young is no excuse. She knew better & this poor baby had to go through this because of her💔💔
@ccxectx5431 I had my kiddo at 18 too! I was the same way when I was young mom too. Just know your are doing a great job❤️
Right, we tend to try to science away peoples bad choices but 16 onward, with every major life achievement, the whole "too young or naive" shit gets old afterwhile. Are some taken advantage of sure, but sure as hell theres people wh9 know what they are doing trying to take advantage of your own naivety. If you can drink and drive and vote and pop out kids without people going good heavens! You are old enough to face the full blunt of the consequences of your own actions
I thought he was just stipulating the saying of "when you're young and dumb"...I didn't take what he said as excusing her behavior.
U guys genuinely make me happy
Buzzballs are this generations Four Lokos lol
9:38 dane’s face for this whole clip perfectly encapsulates the feeling
This has been happening more often in recent years; moms leaving their babies and toddlers alone to party. Some have gone on vacation, and their kids starved to death!
The baby's name was Jailyn Candelario 🕊️ RIP
I think it's just more widely publicized cause I've heard of these cases since I was young. I think it was just easier in the past to pretend your kid died of SIDS or something if you left them alone.
Honestly just glad she told them he was alone
Thats why i drink at home.. like a responsible mother..
Had she taken an Uber no one would know that baby was being left home alone so mama could get drunk.
Why do people like her get be parents? I'd give anything to be a mother, but i wont be able to. But *she* gets to have a kid. Its so unfair.
As someone who can’t give birth, do to medical reasons, it makes me sad and angry to. But even if I was able to birth children I wouldn’t do that, because I know that I wouldn’t be able to provide it with the things it needs unfortunately.
@@beemillo4741 Sadly, same here.
I can give hugs if you need them. 🤗
@@FoxHybrid I do
@@FoxHybrid thanks i appreciate it ☺️
Hopefully Gran now has full custody of the baby. Absolutely broke my heart hearing the cry I was holding on to the hope she was too drunk to remember someone was actually with her baby
Awesome, a new video, I definitely won't get angry!
*The video*
Buzzball’s are definitely efficient! I’ve got a super high tolerance and two of those gave me a huge buzz. Hopefully the kid’s father is a better parent and gets custody.
I don’t think they should’ve released the child to grandma, there’s no way she wasn’t in on that. I don’t know anyone who has access to someone else’s ring app at a residence they don’t live at. They definitely used that doorbell as a babysitter of sorts, a “well I can see the home on the app so I’m watching him” mindset. Any normal grandma would be telling the cops to bust that door down and get the baby or questioning further on the situation as surely they’d ask what they mean they’ve arrested their child and are here to get the baby wondering why her child wasn’t with their grandchild, she knew exactly what it was about and that that child was home alone.
Yep, and ab*s*ve/negligent behavior tends to run in families, so i wouldnt be surprised if this girl learned this sort of selfishness from her mom
My theory is that they live together, and the daughter was supposed to stay home while her mom was at work or whatever. But she got so thirsty her brain broke and she forgot she had a baby to care for and she left without telling her mom. Leaving that poor little dude home alone. 😢
Maybe they live there together.
@@c4tl4dy76 this is more than likely the scenario. I cant see a 23 y/o owning a home, yes, it happens but I cant see this particular one accomplishing that. Its most likely grams house and kid moved in to have mom help with the baby.
I wouldn't make such assumptions without more proof. This is just mean. Maybe she thought the mom and baby were away since mom wasn't answering the door, this is what I think most people would think if I had to wager. Plus I mean she immediately said she was on the way without hesitation, didn't even ask what it was about. Couldn't ask for anything better IMO. And it could really go either way. I just prefer to assume people's innocence until enough evidence is procured to actually make them censurable, otherwise I just look like an a**hole.
Poor little one glad he was found and is safe now. ❤ 10:56
Oh so this doesn't only happen in South Africa cz we have seen a rise of these cases where these"mums" leave their babies to go partying, one even threw the baby in the river so she can go party, one went to a party and the house was somehow caught on fire the kids died, on went partying left a 2mnth old alone and a guy at that party left to go SA the 2mnth old it's wild
That is so messed up
Everywhere there's drunks and junkies it happens
My eyes popped out of my sockets. That is *beyond* disgusting.
ban alcohol. alcohol is the worst, brings out the dumbest people too. if those mom smoked weed they wouldnt even want to leave no where and be way too paranoied to stop holding their infant
Honestly i second this ^^@@imtoxicAF
Dane’s face after seeing the baby…he really is a loving man and you can see the pain on his face.
As a single mom who raised 3 children and helps others who were like me, this leaving kids alone is nothing new and, unfortunately, happens a LOT! Even mentioned historically. A lack of a support system makes the chances of this happening much more likely. And they want to outlaw abortion. Who the hell will pay for it all. Rich people are not thinking it through at all. Pretty soon, we will have gangs of homeless kids on the streets like in 3rd world countries that people can exploit too. Probably the rich who made the laws. I never left my kids, no one should. Think of how many go unreported?
I don't know. If my mom would've been allowed to, I would've been aborted. Instead I was just neglected. I think I'm much better off.
Or we could focus on improving support systems and making more community programs to help moms instead of killing their kids? Maybe? No?
So what's your explanation for all of the abandoned/neglected kids up to this point? When abortion has been federally available across the US? If your supposition about people aborting their unwanted kids was true, there wouldn't be any, would there?
The simple fact is that these people DO want their kids or at least THINK they want kids. And if they didn't, they could give them up for adoption immediately after birth or up to a year. Really young kids like that are almost immediately adopted. There's a massive waiting list of people who want little babies because they don't carry the trauma that older children do, and don't have the yo-yo yank back and forth with CPS taking them out of stable foster homes to go back to unstable bio homes.
There's a lot wrong with our current system, but none of your comment is correct.
@@janek3531abortion isn't killing. The fact that you think shows a severe lack of scientific education.
This video proves my point, at least one of many. I could write a book. @@janek3531
I have a 4 month old baby and this made me cry 😭 The idea of her being left alone breaks my heart
Exigent Circumstance is the term why Law Enforcement were able to enter
0:57 They used to sell buzz balls at CVS and stopped in 2010. I would’ve been 8 or 9 at the time, and I asked my Grandpa if I could get one, cause I thought it was a soda. He replied, “If I get you one of those, you’ll end up with a public intoxication charge 2 minutes after drinking it.” I thought it was just a funny way to say, “You’re too young,” at the time. I looked at the ingredients in one recently, and he wasn’t kidding.
As someone who has a 4 month old at home, this breaks my heart. We’re not rich but my husband and I work very hard to make sure we can pay someone to take care of our child while we’re at work. 😢 I can’t even imagine leaving my sleeping child at the room alone for more than 10 minutes.
I love you guys, life has been hard last couple years but you two always make me smile so thank you very much :D
Always and forever praying for Dane 🙌🙌🙏🙏
Sorry for being daft- is he ill or something? Or is it just because we love him in general?
Making us worried much?
I was wondering the same? 🤔
No its from a different video of Ken's its a joke.
@@jedferguson8727 thanks
My former next door neighbor did this. I had just come back from dropping off my older son at school and was getting my baby out of his carseat when two little girls both looked less than 3 the younger maybe around 1, walked out of the apartment next to mine in diapers and just saying "mama?" I went to check the apartment after I called to see if someone was in there and no adult to be seen. I called the police. Needless to say she was arrested when she finally did show up. Turns out she'd left them alone all night to go clubbing with her sister and it wasn't the first time, just the first she had been caught. Last i heard girls were safe with relative and mom in jail.
I like how Dane said "They sell them at the liquor store, I think" When talking about Buzzballs. Do they usually not sell them there??
Well, yes, I think he meant just because sometimes you can find a lot of those in a simple gas station near the front
yeah well i sell them at parties. she prob bought them from me when i went...
I bought one at Walmart. A pina colada. I hate alcohol so it was my last one! 🤣😂
She probably cried in front of a judge and got leniency.
I couldn't be a judge, especially with people like that.
She made the full choice to get wasted, get behind the wheel, and leave her defenseless kid at home alone. No leniency whatsoever from me, cause she'd just do it all over again.
Poor baby hearing him cry broke my heart.
Ken if you want to react to another mom who's trash, her name is Kristel Candelario.
This doesn't sound too far off from my own situation when I was little. Ended up finding out via eavesdropping when I was 14 into family conversations that my mom took me home after I was born. Had to stay in the hospital for a few months, so I believe I was also somewhere around 5 months as well. She ended up partying and leaving me home alone on the bed, my grandmother didnt find out til two days later. She was surprised I didn't fall off it or anything since it wasnt a crib, it was an actual bed. Not surprising seeing how my mom proceeded to raise me the few years I did end up staying with her when I was little. Total neglect, we didnt have conversations and she would snap and get pissed at me for even looking at her, god forbid i would try and start a conversation. Cops were a usual reoccurrance every other week or so. On top of that she expected me to take care of my three younger brothers when I was only around 7. I was a "brat" and a "bad older sibling" if i didnt feed them or entertain them the whole day while she just slept or smoked. And if i wasn't in the mood, she'd lock me in my room for the whole day for being said "brat". Safe to say now at 20, even if she tries to make up for all shes done, shes still a piece of shit.
I hate parents like these.
Sounds like you're better off just going no-contact at this point. She never wanted to talk to you, so why should you talk to her? Unless you're (unfortunately) still living with her.
Sadly this is gonna become more common now that Roe v Wade overturned. People who arnt ready or just plain shouldn't or dont want to have kids, will get stuck with the sudden massive responsibility and expectations. Neglect and abuse is often the result of too much pressure and not enough support. It takes a lot of willpower to suddenly put your own wants and vices aside for someone else and sadly not everyone is willing to do that. Not everyone is rasied able to do that. And this is the sad results of that lack of will.Lives ruined. Reputations lost. Families broken. All for a buzz that could have been delivered to the house via doordash.
Remember this:
All children deserve parents.
But not all parents deserve children.
Not me watching this and hearing the baby crying and going see if my son woke up from his nap early lmfao
I dont even leave my pig alone to go party , I stay home and we party together 👍🏻🇨🇦🍻
I felt Ken in EVERY BONE when he called her a piece of trash🤣
That made me cry. Babies aren't meant to be alone.... they are the center of the universe in their minds, and why shouldn't they? They are supposed to be the center of the universe when you're a parent. There's something so dirty and wrong with abandoning a child. It's just not in our evolution at all. She's a freak of nature for doing that to her baby, she's so twisted and strange for that.
seeing the kid alone just standing there broke my heart !!!!
just saw another video about a mom leave her 16 months old baby for a 10 days trip and killed the baby, some people need to get a license in order to allow having baby
Sad as it is to say, I really do wish we could gatekeep parenthood like that. We gatekeep it for adoption. Cars, guns, liquor, smokes, tattoos... We gatekeep all of those. But raising a tiny human gets left to whoever is lucky enough to get knocked up? Shouldn't we have some kind of periodic, random child welfare checks for new parents that *doesn't* rely on tips about abuse already happening?
Seeing how upset Ken and Dane were the second that baby was in view...
There truly is no safe time.. we recently had a fatal DUI accident at 4pm on a Tuesday.. and we're a pretty small town
I mean yea alcoholics and people partying drink all day. My friends dad (who was an alcoholic) used to stop and get beers at the store on the way to work at 6 pm 🤔 and he would drink on the way home after work too from what I remember them telling me about him.
Edit: When I say used to this is someone I knew in high school. Not really sure what her parents do these days or how all that worked out for them. Been a real long time since I talked to her or her family.
you say that like anyone would think there was a safer time for drunk driving. also being a small town has no bearing on the time or day of someone crashing. i must be missing something. as small American towns are pretty notorious for drunk boomers
My grandmother told me the story of how she walked outside while I was taking a nap on the bed at a few months old. The door shut behind her and she didn’t realize it was locked. She was freaking out and ran to get help. I woke up and was crying while she got a neighbor to help get in. She was so worried and I was not alone for long, I can’t imagine someone leaving their baby by itself for any reason
Just watched a story where a mom left her baby alone for 10-11 days went on vacation to Puerto Rico… 🤦♀️
Was the baby even alive ?
@@vincemarenger7122 no the baby did not survive… it was a horrible story! The mom had posted pics of herself on the beaches of Puerto Rico and all the while her daughter is sitting home alone In a pack n play with only 2 bottles ….2 bottles!!!! At one point u can hear the baby crying on the ring doorbell…outside… that did it for me, I cried too.. mom , ok well that POS got life no parole
As both a father and an alcoholic with just shy of 7 years without a drink, this one was very hard to watch. Part of me felt like I had to, as a reminder. I stopped drinking because I didn't want my daughters to remember me as pathetic drunk! I have worked hard to get to a much happier and healthier place for me and her, and am thankful every single day I still get to have her in my life. (But this ain't about me!)
More than anything I sincerely hope that kid is safe, and whoever is closest, someone please hug Dane for me! He said exactly how I felt and I needed one, too!
Im surprised mary didnt chime in to tell us how amber Lynn loves buzzballs xD
First of your videos that made me cry. Couldn't handle hearing that baby cry. . .
She had 1 giant buzzball 😂
she had a fishbowl buzzball. technically they do look like mini fishbowls, this is the first time ive heard about them
