WWYD? I know a drug taking mother

[GlassTrees]

If you knew someone who was taking class A drugs EVERY weekend, then being with her 11yo DD during the week, WWYD if anything? DD is with her dad at weekends and all school holidays it seems but this woman parties HARD each weekend, putting her antics all over FB. A mutual friend tells me that she sees her out a lot and she is always on speed/coke. There are other reasons I know her drug use is fact, but I can't say it on here, please just believe me.

This woman also has serious MH issues and is on very strong medication for it. She was sectioned last year for a time.

My concern is that she cannot be caring for her DD properly in the week if always on a come-down from Sunday night and that the DD always seems slightly neglected.

It niggles me. Would you do anything? Contact SS or the MH team where she lives? I guess it's none of my business but I think about it and her little girl a lot when I see it all on FB. I'm not that close to her or her DD so couldn't have a chat with her about it. Am I being too judgey or would you be concerned too?

What do you mean by slightly neglected? Presumably the DD is at school in the day?

If you didn't know about the drug taking would you still consider reporting to ss on the basis of the neglect alone?

She isn't taking drugs around her dd, so I doubt they would investigate unless there are other concerns about her dd's standard of care which are severe enough to warrant investigation.

Yes she's at school but homework never done, no coat, not correct uniform. Nothing major, just slight stuff. The mother doesn't get up till just before the dd comes home. Flat is a tip apparently and no proper meals are made I gather.

It's just me being judgeypants isn't it? Or not?

Is this information you know yourself, or have heard from someone else?

Sofaking, no any neglect is definitely not sever enough to report minus the drug taking.

Lily, a bit of both.

comedowns don't last a week, the danger would be getting herself arrested or hospitalized. She will probably already be on ss' radar and the school will note if there is no uniform etc. so unless you are a close friend of hers then it would be best if you kept out of it.
"apparently" and "I gather" means you have no idea, and as you have no idea I'm not sure why you feel you have to get involved.

Flat is a tip 'apparently' and property meals aren't cooked 'I gather' gossip is a very dangerous thing op. Butt out.

Why isn't she doing the homework at her Dad's?
