AIBU to think this girl needs a slap

This girl who use to hang around with us was always around trouble stealing, running away, violence, drinking, smoking, drugs you name it she did it.

I kind of moved on and she moved to a different area we had each other on Facebook but don't speak. She got pregnant and proclaimed it was going to be the making of her Hmm well it wasn't unfortunately she was constantly telling the Facebook world how SS were on to her and were going to "kidnap" her baby. She had and was given a chance and after a few photo's of her changing the child with her feet holding the bottle in it's mouth with the caption "you bitches can't multi-task like me" status of how she had to go through DNA because she'd slept around and drug test because she was taking her child to be around people whom do drugs she got miffed at the world because SS took the child away.

She still see it but lashed out at everyone with a child on Facebook stating she resents them because SS are C**t's and stole her baby Hmm they don't know what they're doing even one remark about how all the SS are is a paedophile gang leader taking and giving children to paedophiles?!?!

She's now telling the world of facebook how at her next contact she's just going to take the child and run because nobody will stop her and despite having no job, money or home she can provide better than these "paedophiles Hmm because it's going to be adopted yet she constantly refuses any help

AIBU to think that maybe if she didn't constantly accuse the SS and fill her Facebook full of shit like this she may have more of a chance I try to hide her post but some just creep on in

I kinda think that this is not a genuine thread.

Buzzardbird · 05/01/2014 00:09

Oh, goady?

Kleptronic · 05/01/2014 00:09

So why is being judgy bad, when people are calling the OP 'vile' and 'disgusting'?

I must have missed that memo Grin

Birdsgottafly · 05/01/2014 00:10

"why don't people stop all this 'troubled, vulnerable, poor girl' shite because i would be prepared to bet you wouldn't be saying it to the woman in question."

That's a bet you would lose, this is an 18 year old, who has historical issues.

"She DOESN'T have MH issues."

I don't think you would be qualified to judge that under 16, when you were her friend?

She has psychological problems, at least, these still need a lot if work by MH services. All of her behaviour has stemmed from somewhere.

Many people have undiagnosed MH/PD's until they have children and then come under the radar of the Child Protection system.

RalphLaurenLover · 05/01/2014 00:11

Limited

Sadly it is.

She's gone from my FB, I vented my frustration all is done.

Apart from vote informing me of others mh issus's that she's self diagnosed

I have also not said that it excuses child neglect. The issue isn't with whether she is correct or not in her assumptions of this women. It is the tastelessness of this thread.

To come on to any forum with the sole intention of bashing another person makes me question what the gain is for the OP. If she had written her post a bit differently and asked for advice on how to help a woman who appears to be beyond help the responses would have been vastly different.

This thread is purely to bash this woman. Why???

JumpingJackSprat · 05/01/2014 00:14

Hope you don't ever fall out of your Ivory Tower op.

VampyreofTimeandMemory · 05/01/2014 00:14

okay, some people might be kind enough to offer support if this woman posted on mn, her views regarding social services and parenting... however, a fair few would not be so gentle, especially here on aibu.

PeriodFeatures · 05/01/2014 00:14

Sorry OP but this is one of the saddest an most unenlightened threads I have ever read.

YABVVU.

Step back, view this situation for what it is and if you have nothing useful to offer this troubled friend step away. She and her child obviously need intervention and are receiving it professionally.

I personally find it in extremely poor taste when people gossip over other peoples hardships, even more so when the only exposure to them is via Facebook.

Have a bit of self respect and dignity. Find something else to do.

LimitedEditionLady · 05/01/2014 00:15

She hasnt diagnosed anything ralph,shes trying to tell you that some people DO have MH problems which cause problems in how people see life.Think now,she COULD have MH problems and you dont know,she might not even know herself.This is a possibility isnt it?You will meet a lot of people in your life and not know that they MH issues.

RalphLaurenLover · 05/01/2014 00:16

Vote I've already said I didn't word it to well.
If she is "beyond help" then you can't help. Nothing I can do or say will stop her DC from being adopted and taken off her. As others have said she's obviously done something for that to happen.

Jumping Don't worry If I'll do prince charming will be at the bottom to catch me

VampyreofTimeandMemory · 05/01/2014 00:17

thousands of the very many people who experience mh issues are extremely capable of providing adequate care for their children.

Joules68 · 05/01/2014 00:17

You spoke to her once op.... Once.... Yet you positively know there's no MH Hmm

Yeah right

VoteYes · 05/01/2014 00:18

Wow, did you even read what I wrote? If this is your interpretation of what I am saying then I can only say that I view your thread with a pinch of salt. You can't accurately repeat something that is written in black and white on this thread so what assumptions did you throw in to your original OP?

PeriodFeatures · 05/01/2014 00:19

OP sorry to be so harsh but is your reaction because you find this persons situation shocking and hard to understand?

If that is the case, that makes more sense to me than you just being judgy and frankly a wee bit inappropriate!

There is probably a better way of coming across that would mean you get a bit of a discussion to help you get your head around it. I know that being confronted with child abuse and neglect can be massively shocking,unsettling and hard to understand.

LimitedEditionLady · 05/01/2014 00:21

Noone said that people with MH problems cant raise children well,i was raised by someone with a severe MH problem.Some peoples MH problems can sadly take over,unfortunately Ive seen this.

RalphLaurenLover · 05/01/2014 00:22

period

I don't understand how someone can think anyone whom is only trying to do what is best for your child all to be paedophile gang leaders. I also don't understand how someone can take their child to be around drugs and alcohol, I don't understand how if someone is threatening to the only thing that your suppose to protect in life why you wouldn't just shut up and do as your god damn told.

I personally can't see how you'd get yourself into that much shit they'd take them off you.

thank god this child is in care then! unfortunately, 'could have mh problems' could apply to a lot of people, as we know, they are much more common than some people think.

Wtf is going on here these days
Several threads ive seen , in which posters are being deliberately nasty to Ops . Jumping on turns of phrases and twisting their meanings , for the purpose of trying to make op feel bad ... never used to be like that on here ,. On aibu you dont expect suck ups , but the OPs threads should at least be read properly and taken in the contects of its true meaning .

Is there an invasion of troublemakers or hairy handed truckers or something ?

LimitedEditionLady · 05/01/2014 00:26

Because some people are easily led and cant work out whats right and wrong.Its not that what you feel is not understandable OP its that you posted this.

Droves · 05/01/2014 00:26

(Sorry for the hijack op )
