Need your opinion Ladies

There's this mom who leaves her 5yrs old girl home all the time as she goes to work. I didn't know until recently I saw her walk out alone; I asked her if she was alone she said yes and thather mom does that. I feel sad and pissed. It is so unfair for her to do that. She is young.

I am just wondering can't she get her to go to a baby sitter center? And be picking her later? If it is work the money she is making she can spare for her child.

I would call the police the very next time she does it because that child is in danger being alone in a house alone. Fire,drowning,could be hungry all day. As easily as you found out she was home alone what if a sexual predator had seen her? Smh that's sad but mom has no excuse to leave a 5yr old home alone

Call the cops next time you know she's there alone! Her mom should know better.  Anything could happen to that poor baby while she's alone!

I was really shocked, even a 6yr old child to be left alone is soo damn wrong. They live in a safe neighbour hood apartment but that is not an excuse. It is terribly wrong.

Uh that's like against the law big time. That mom will wind up getting arrested and getting charged with child abandonment, and child endangering. Even though technically she is not abandoning the children she will still be charged with it

If she is home alone then I would call the cops or DHR. It is unsafe for a child that is 5 years old to be left at home.

5 years old? Are you freaking kidding me? I would step up and say something. Does she understand what can happen to that poor baby while shes at work? I swear some people should not be aloud to have children.
