Mom Who Smokes and Drinks Around Her Toddler – Child Abuse?
Question by Chelsea A: Mom who smokes and drinks around her toddler – child abuse?
My best friend (not anymore) of 12 years recently moved out of my apartment (where she had a bedroom with a crib) to her mother’s apartment where she and the 16 month old sleep on a leather sofa in the living room. Mom smokes weed and cigarettes, gets drunk often, takes esctacy (a street drug – mdma…) and any other prescription type pills she can get her hands on and spends her “child support” money, and her Welfare benefits on her habits – including new tattoos, drugs and alcohol. Is this considered child abuse? Should I report it? I live in Oregon.
In this apartment also lives her 17 year old little brother, her new best friend and her 2 year old daughter and her mom with her 24 year old boyfriend. All of whom participate in affore mentioned illicit activities.
