Michigander_Life (178 posts) On "narcing out" negligent parents I cannot believe the controversy associated with this. How many children are neglected every day? Abandoned by parents? Is this "narcing out" so awful because the subject of his report was a single mother? Well, I'm going to tell on myself too. I have called the police more than once when I've seen a parent leave their young child or children in a parked car, unattended, outside of a business. I understand that sometimes life gets hard, but I would rather meddle and be able to sleep at night, than turn a blind eye and have to deal with a dead kid who I could have saved. I applaud our DUers who choose to get involved, no matter how unpopular that choice may be.

It was all about the poster and her personal feelings, really not about the children (there were two of them) at all. Speaking to that is not a denial that children do need help sometimes. These are not equivalent things we are discussing here. That is obvious to anyone who read the other thread, and took great offense to it. These false equivalencies and new threads about this are ignoring what the real crux of the issue was in the first story.

I don't care if the woman thought the mom was a saint or a serial killer.... ... if she saw neglect, she in my opinion had a moral duty to report it to the authorities. I'd have had a legal duty as well. And by "neglect", I mean leaving a five and 10-year-old alone overnight, not cooking microwave cuisine or watching PBS.
Star Member boston bean (20,524 posts) 80. Umm, she called the cops, the kids were not alone. She was WRONG. I take everything this woman says to be suspect and she is having personal motives in getting this woman off her property because she has not paid last months rent.
Star Member moriah (3,963 posts) 96. Why bother trying to force someone out when you have perfect legal grounds for eviction?Unless you're accusing a long-term DUer of just being a twisted psychopath who enjoys meddling in the affairs of others for her own convenience and amusement.
