This is the complaining thread, so I'll complain here instead of corrupting the other thread with negativity. Okay, so I start working on Thursday of last week and my daughter calls me (Most of the regulars know about her, but I'll give a little background info. She is bi-polar or borderline, she has a 20 month old baby, and she just got married less than 2 weeks ago.). She goes into a panic about how social services is going to take her baby because her friend took her to the store without pants on, with a dirty diaper and a dirty shirt on. I ask her when did it happen and she said it was the day before. I said, "don't worry about it, if anybody was going to report you, you would have heard something by now." She then goes into this, but mama you don't understand thing, and I ask her, "well does she have diaper rash or something?" She's like "no," it's bruises." I asked her, "how did she get bruises?" JR, her husband, had spanked her and bruised her bottom. My daughter had left him the day before and had given me some other reason why she had left, then admitted to me that she had gotten very angry with him every time she changed the baby and saw the bruises and left. He had spanked her 3 days earlier. Well, I told her to calm down and we would take care of it, just to let me get off of work and I would help her figure something out. I called her back and told her I would go get the baby, she was like, "what do I tell JR?" I told her, "I don't care what you tell JR, you can't take her back over there." My sister was with me and overheard the conversation, long story short, she called ss and turned him in and now Brittany won't talk to me and I probably won't see her for a long time. I really don't know if she will ever talk to me again. Her husband has been in jail for beating his ex-girlfriend. All the door in his house have holes in them from where he has beat them in. He has black-out rage, and she married him. She is angry with me and my sister for turning him in. I lived with an abusive man for 20 years, so I know that, "I'm sorry, I won't do it anymore," doesn't mean squat. So, the baby's dad has her right now, (that is where she is supposed to be, but he really doesn't care about her and probably gave her back to Brittany) and I don't know what is going to happen from here. So prayers would be nice. Sorry this is so long.
