So in my building there are 12 apartments total. The opposite end has some kids. Two families & the little kids play together, around the whole building, in the lots, whatever. None of us mind, except there is never any adult supervision.
Now, those of us at the opposite end have talked about that there is never any adult supervision. Ever. The oldest girl, who is probably about 9 years old has to watch her little sister who is probably 5ish and her little brother who is 2. He has a motorized 4 wheeler he rides around. He's been on the street with it. My neighbor, Jen, has said several times to the oldest little girl "where's your mom?", "watch your little brother". I mean, these kids think nothing of saying hi to us or talking to us. It concerns me with the odd balls that live in this general neighborhood, not just my building.
Now, the mother has a "husband". We are going to classify "husband" loosely. We all feel terrible for the oldest little girl, the one who is always in charge. She's always dragging the garbage out. Always watching those kids. She misses the school bus quite often. It's just not a good deal. Her dad is not the same dad as the other 2 younger kids. Last year, the oldest girl mentioned how her mom married the smaller kids father.
On Sunday, Jen saw most of the kids in the back (there are 2 other kids but they live in a different apartment & don't pertain to this story) except the little 2 year old boy was out front talking with the Conspiracy Theorist. WTF?? So when Jen was walking her dog, she saw the oldest little girl & asked why her mom never comes outside with them & that the little boy was talking to the Conspiracy Theorist. I guess the oldest girl made a face, like Jen was on to something. Poor little girl can't even be a little girl. Jen doesn't remember if she said anything else to the little girl. I mean neither one of those adults is ever outside sitting on the stoop watching these kids. What the fuck is wrong with them?
On Monday Jen had a note on her door telling her to mind her business & that the mom is a "single, working mom". Bull fucking shit. She's a lazy piece of garbage who is totally fucking up her kids, especially the oldest girl. Jen said the kids haven't been playing down this way. It's not like any of us mind. They like to pet the dogs when we all walk them & they chit chat with us. I mean, they are little kids. LITTLE KIDS. It's just a bad deal & that woman, those people are fucked up. If something happens to that little boy, that little girl would be messed up more than she probably already is.
