Update from last week’s story

http://www.kpho.com/story/24440365/toddler-caught-on-video-cursing-now-in-foster-home-with-17-year-old-mother

An Omaha, NE juvenile court ruled on Monday that the 2-year-old and his 17-year-old mother will both be placed with the same foster family.

The 2-year-old boy is being raised by a 17-year-old mother, who lived with her 19-year-old sister and their 38-year-old mother was recently incarcerated on gun charges. There were other children in the house as well.

Douglas County, NE attorney Don Kleine believes there was a constant danger in the homes.

“Some of the danger that we’ve seen previously was a history of gang involvement,” Kleine said. “There was a shooting involved that, in fact, one of the children was injured by shrapnel from [the] shots fired.”

*********************************

The 2 year old child belongs to a 17 year old child. Do the math. Sex at 14/15.

In October, there was a driveby at their previous house and the toddler was injured.

And grandma is in jail on gun charges.

So, yeah, I still think it was a good idea to investigate this.

I was a mom at 17-I assumed adult responsibilities-went to work as a cocktail waitress, and my first year of college-no government daycare, no food stamps-not all of us are dumbasses at that age-or at least we weren’t 30-40 years ago...

yes it was. again, i still haven’t seen the video, but i do believe from all that’s been said that it was sufficient to lead to this result. sad thing is how many others are doing the same, other babies living in similar environments.
