Lunatic Mom Insists Her Neighbor Must Babysit Her Kid, Goes Livid When She Sends Her Son There And The Neighbor Is Not Home
As if getting along with your neighbors wasn’t enough of a challenge already, some next-door residents take the craziness to a whole new level. Especially if that includes dealing with not just entitled, but a very entitled parent.
All this and more happened to one work-from-home mom of two boys, age 5 and 10. In a viral post on r/EntitledParents, the author shared how years ago, “this new neighbor of mine kept trying for the better part of a summer to use me as a free babysitter.” It turned out, the lady kept dropping off her 7-year-old at the author’s door in the early mornings. Even after telling her a solid “Stop sending your kid over, I am NOT a baby-sitter!” the senseless behavior continued, pushing the author to the brink of insanity.
So let’s see how this neighbor drama progressed in the full story below, which will make you want to hug your neighbors, however loud their music may be, because now you know… it could be worse. Worse times infinity.

The best way to handle this would have been to call the police and say "I have a lost child who has been abandoned by his mother. Can you some find out who he belongs to?" And if the neighbor protests...let her know your next call will be to child protective services to report her for child abandonment.

that's the only right way. Be sure to have a video where she leaves the child unattended on your door

Some people are literally living carpets who let people just walk all over them. This woman doing absolutely everything to protect the crazy woman from herself by not calling the cops on her that first day is just too much.

Seriously? The story makes the woman sound pretty crazy but there were like 5 easy solutions for this on the second time she did it. Some random man calls up and yells at you? You get the police involved pronto.

When it became clear that she was leaving him on purpose (and it wasn’t that she’d had an emergency or something), poster should definitely have involved the police and told them she was leaving her child alone when she went to work.

My best friend's mother use to pull this sort of thing all the time. My best friend was just at our house everyday. One weekend we pack our bags and go to stay at my uncle's house on the beach for the weekend. We get back late Sunday night and my friend is in our screened in porch. She was 7 or 8 at the time and had ripped open the screen and slept on the porch all weekend. We couldn't find her mother until she showed up a few days later to pick her up. My parents divorced and we moved away but my dad stayed. My friend calls up my dad one day saying her mother had been gone for a week and asked my dad to come get her. She didn't know where she was so my dad had to get the police involved to try and figure out where my friend was. Nightmare.

abandoning a minor ('cause she is clearly leaving child somewhere forcing other to care) in Italy is a crime

These reddit posts are starting to be too many and l really don't understand the point of them! 99% of the cases are extreme situations that have an obvious wtf reaction! Nothing for debate at least....

I’m a very easygoing person, don’t like confrontations, but I would’ve called the cops the first time, saying someone abandoned their kid. Not my problem.

I'd have called cops second time, not first time. Because there's a background you don't know, there's maybe a screwup/misunderstanding, whatever. Second time it's clearly a safety/mental health issue; you call the police and that's clear enough --- child services are so overbooked they're not going to take on a new case just because it's possible there's problems... so you can do that first police call without real risk to the kid.

I remember working retail at a drugstore that had a toy aisle. We were in a fairly small town, but I remember being shocked one day when we discovered this mother had dropped her group of small, young children (the eldest could not have been more than ten or eleven and the youngest was five or so) in our store and told them she'd pick them up in an hour. The kids were rowdy at best, running around, throwing bouncy balls and stuff. My assistant manager immediately asked them to find their parent and stay out of the toy aisle and they told her their mom wasn't there. I was so happy when the mom came by to watch my ASM tell her if she ever did it again, we WOULD call the police and they would consider it child abandonment. The mom was genuinely shocked that we wouldn't be a free daycare for her grade schoolers. The mom in this story truly should have called CPS or the police. They would have at least contacted the father who really seems like he had no idea what was really going on.
