It’s so mind blowing how a woman who only had this baby for 12 days cares more about him than his own Mother.

As a foster mom that has taken in two newborns from the hospital, I can tell you the moment I held both of the babies for the first time, I loved them (and continue to love them) just as much as I love my biological son.

You always hear bad stories about foster parents just getting kids for the money; but in this case, this woman and her husband seem like they truly loved the children under their foster care. It's so sad that the baby wasn't allowed to stay with her.

“He liked to be held at all times when he wasn’t asleep” my god that just broke my heart. I bet his foster mom would have held him for months and months straight if that’s what Dylan wanted. Shame on everyone who helped put this baby back in the clutches of these monsters.

@@Barzins1 I held my daughter for just a few minutes, before I began haemorrhaging from the trauma of the birth. I was transfused for 48 hours and sedated. When I was taken off sedatives, I couldn't see my baby in the room. I went crazy and accused the staff of putting her up for adoption. They calmed me down and wheeled her in. The relief I felt was overwhelming. That rush of love I felt when she was born came back instantly. I was in hospital for 8 days and never took my eyes off her. These parents put drugs before their child's wellbeing. I don't understand why he was given to them.

She can't use her drug addiction for an excuse because I watched a video on KZbin of some street worker and Asian lady she was a street worker beautiful woman .turned her baby into the fire hall because you're allowed to do that you're not going to get in trouble you don't get in trouble you drop baby off and you leave you should watch that story it's absolutely tear jerking but for a street worker to be loaded on dope and have a child and turn that child in so make sure that child is safe this thing has no excuse.

And that is the reason why his mother hurt him as she did, bc he kept crying when he was awake and she lost her nerves when she was high or on withdrawal. I don't even wanna know how she threw him around in anger. Unbelievable what that poor little baby had to go through, he had a good place and was loved, but they ripped him away. And for what?😡😡😡

Please do not feel guilty for giving the child back to CPS to give to his drug-driven parents when you disagreed with the decision of the state!

Teachers that have worked a long time often bank a lot of time, and if I’m not wrong, flma can kick in as well. When I was 18, in college, I had my first son, and my mom who was a teacher took six months out of work to help me take care of him. We needed it, because he cried and cried and cried so much. It took his dad, myself and my mom caring for him to even be able to get enough sleep to halfway function. Surprisingly that didn’t prevent me from having anymore children.

Instead they gave those 2 sweethearts to that wicked-evil monster that abused both & killed one. Cps is a ridiculous, nasty system & there are many MANY people that consider cps to be a child trafficking ring. It's so sad!!!! This foster mother Is AMAZING & she should have had baby Dylan for longer. The cps workers gave him back after 12 days. Out of everyone in the baby's life, his foster mother seemed to love & care about his well being more than everyone else combined!

Yep, I totally agree. I had read more information about this case on Google and part of the article did mention that this Child Services in Ohio, mishandled baby Dylan's case and whoever was in charge, didn't do the right protocol procedures to keep baby Dylan away from his parents. The mom, Jessica was tested positive with meth in her system the day she gave birth to Dylan, so he was born with meth in his system. This foster mom was actually more than upset that Child Services told her she has to give the baby back to the father, Daniel, he already had a criminal record and did drugs too. All I've ever heard is that Child Services say they're always overwhelmed with thousands of cases, in each state. Not everyone can handle working with a overload of cases of each employee, some quit because it's just too much, stressful and can even be an emotional roller coaster because these employees are told to basically take short cuts just to get a kid in someone's custody and they go on to the next case. Also, too many young girls, young women are on drugs, abused, take no responsibility after having a baby, getting arrested multiple times, other foster parents just want the money they receive that's for the child but they pocket the money for their personal use and a lot of foster parents are abusive too... Not this lady, she's an Angel! But children get sent to several foster homes in one year up until they're 18 years old. And some of those kids grow up feeling messed up, depressed and turn to drugs and alcohol because of the abuse they endured. But the Child Services doesn't do anything to make things better with the system. And that's what baby Dylan was, let down by those parents and the system, even their son who was 14 at the time, was taken away and sent to foster care, I'm glad he was one of the witnesses who was able to take the stand against his parents.. R.I.P. baby Dylan

Their older son gave the father his urine because the father asked him for it. Im assuming they went in to the bathroom with them because thats just policy and standard in cps cases, so somehow he managed to pull it off. Then if im not mistaken, the mother didn't pass any drug tests, so the baby was given to the father, and the mother wasn't suppose to be staying there. The father, of course, let her stay there because #1 i think she wore the pants in the relationship and he just did whatever she wanted or what she said, and #2 he worked and needed her to keep the baby. I havent seen all the videos of this trial yet and I've not seen them completely in order, but I believe that's what has been said so far from what I have seen. The son was around 13 or 14 when the father asked him for his urine, and he testified in court and was 15 at the time of his testimony. He admitted that his dad asked for him to pee in a cup for him and give it to him.

Are you? Do you think it's rather odd that baby Dylan somehow fit into a milk crate with 18 large rocks, tons of plastic wrap and duct tape, an anchor and not one but 2 blankets etc? Is that just a little odd? Milk crates are not big enough for all of that. Then when his mother testified she didn't potentially know the real details of how the baby was killed. Maybe her confession was literally saying what CPS wanted her to say not to take the other child or children and place them in a home so abusive an abusive home of origin sounds great. I'm skeptical of the state's story because it does not rationally add up.

I was signed up & going through the training to be a foster mom w/ the FULL & COMPLETE understanding that re-unification is the ultimate goal. During training, we were told that there are & will be instances when a child may be harmed or unalived even. Still I wanted to move forward with/ training, be my best self to try & help w/ kids. During my own training it became very apparent to me that CPS/CFS/DCFS/DFS, etc. is often the part of the process that "drops the ball" w/ these kids. I understand they become overwhelmed, short-staffed, too much going on w/ 1 case, etc. So I decided that if the agency isn't doing their part to ensure the safety of kids in the system, how am I going to be able to count on their support if needed? In the end I decided that I don't think I could handle it if a child was harmed/unalived after being w/ me for awhile so I decided against being a foster mom. IMO, the system is what is killing the desire to become a foster parent. Ms. Bowling was an angel sent to help Dylan. She loved him more than his birth parents. I believe that Dylan only felt love for 12 days in his entire life. I hope that brings some peace & comfort to her after this terrible tragedy.

He was 5.4 lbs when she got him but only 4.5 lbs at autopsy. Im so grateful this woman was not in the court while the forensic pathologist covered all the injuries dylan suffered. She is so sensitive this would have broke her

It breaks my heart. Dylan could have had a loving mom and home but it was stolen from him. And she's 41. I literally thought she was younger. She's gorgeous

I was thinking the same, she does look younger

My heart aches for this amazing foster mom. The only one that loved poor Dillon. Until he woke up in Jesus' arms. Had he been left with her he would be alive, loved and healthy. Reunification kills babies more often than we think. Rest Dillon for eternity.

As I sit here and cry, I feel your pain Andrea. Always remember you are a beautiful soul who loved and cared for baby Dylan, I am sure he loves you also. He's always with you even though the cruel world dealt him the worst cards. Peace and love precious Mama.

My heart breaks seeing the heartbreak this woman is going through. She loved and cared for that baby more than his own parents. At least this little guy was loved for those short 12 days. Such a failure on the system.

God bless this woman. She tried but CPS failed again. This baby should have stayed in her care.

She really wanted to adopt him and give him a great life. The system failed this child.

The “mom” only ever felt sorry for herself. This woman was Dylan’s mother. She will grieve the loss of him for the rest of her life.
