Should I Call Social Services?!

[mumtochloe]

I am getting very worried about some children I see on a regular basis.

There is a little girl called Dora who's parents let her out to roam on a regular basis - she is always getting into sticky situations and has no good role model in her life. Also I am worried about 2 other kids called Max and Ruby - their parents are always down the pub abd Ruby has to look after her little brother ALL the time. I am worried she may burn the house down.

What should I do?

Is this a serious post? Awful if it is..... but I just can't get Dora the Explorer out of my head!!!

i was worried too when i saw Ruby having to take Max to the shops the other day to buy a new pair of dungarees with £5

also, the time when Ruby (who i think is only 7) was using a hot stove and frying an egg for Max's breakfast

good job grandma is next door

Okaaaaaay..... I'm really confused.

dora(the explorer) and max and ruby(rabbits)

Doh! I seeeee, bit slow today.

LOL mumtochloe!!!!!! Where ARE Max and Rubys parents????
And doesnt Ruby sometimes have to look after a baby cousin as WELL as Max!

There is someone i worry about as well .... Her name is Maggie, she must only be 7 ... her parents let her out all hours!!! She often has to look after her triplet cousins by herself ... and she plays with a pig and a Ferocious beast

Oh god - Tessiebear - call them NOW! Soo irresponsible of her parents!!

I think there are others too!!

I know as if Max and Ruby should be in Debenhams unparented on an ESCALATOR of all things and to be wandering around with money
pah

And as for Maisy Middleton

i see this kind of thing often, children pushing thier younger siblings around in buggys hanging around on corners, because the parents cant be arsed to look after them MAKES ME SICK WITH ANGER. as you know thier names and addresses i would give ss a call. poor kids

i even saw ruby with a lemonade stand outside her house, trying to raise some extra cash, poor thing, just as well she had friends like louise to help out

personally, the babies round here (tommy, chucky, phil and lil) their parents shock me. they leave the babies with a grandad who suffers narcoloepsy, so the babies are always getting into 'trouble'. and then they have a horrible cousin called angelicia, who is the most spoilt brat ever and deserves a smacked bottom. The dog takes mroe care of the babies than the parents.

lol misdee! and tommy spends all day every day in just a nappy

its awful. i dont kow how the parents leave them like that. Tommy needs trousers!!

Not the SAME nappy Nailpolish surely??

Dora is ALWAYS in the same clothes. Bet she stinks!!!

There are loads of kids like this. It's so sad.

I know of one - ds and I see him most mornings - and he can't be more than about 7 or 8. He is always hanging around with this really old bloke - big grey beard, pointy shoes - real weirdo. And the little boy is always running around after him, doing errands and so on. He always seems to be home alone at night. I've also seen him talking to these two very dodgy characters - one's called Sly, I think? - who I know have got criminal records - they're persistent re-offenders from what I can see.

It really makes me sad - what is the world coming to when these kids are left to fend for themselves this way?

Oh it has just gotten worse... poor Dora is now not just roaming on her own but being accompanied by her baby twin siblings! Do those people have no conscience?!

I saw ruby giving max a bath, it's really dangerous to leave kids playing with water and the parents never seemed to be in on a night as I saw ruby trying to settle max down one evening, sigh, poor things at least i see bunny scout leader visit here and there.
