I'm a foster parent to a little girl that was parentified and was originally placed with her siblings but then moved due to sibling on sibling violence. It has been the best thing for her. For the first time in her life she's just a kid. She doesn't have to care for anyone but herself and is a only child for the first time since she was an infant. She is thriving. Separating kids isn't optimal but sometimes it is the best thing especially for parentified children.

As a family therapist, I want to say that, it is possible much of the time for work to be done with children like that. They don’t have to lose their siblings. The parentification (and some other issues) can be worked on successfully with therapy and with the help of the foster parents as well. Of course, it’s a case by case basis. But separation is not the only answer to situations like this.

As someone who was parentified to five other kids, it really affects development and relationships. No hobbies, no friendships, no extracurriculars, no weekends, no time for homework. It made me tough, decisive, hard-working, selfless, and responsible - but also lonely, bossy, restless, self-neglectful, and exploitable. Most of us are adults now; my siblings are close, but not to me. It's awkward when I'm around because I'm not Mom or Dad, but I've never been one of them. That's what hurts the most.

I was impressed when she asked, “Did you feel the child was coached?” and then followed it up with, “Do you agree that the person who coached the child couldn’t have been the father?” (Because the father is in prison). That was a deliberate and damning condemnation of the mother… on the record. I assure you that’s going to be used by the prosecution during the mother’s trial.

This case is a great illustration that we can't assume that keeping siblings together is always in the best interests of the children. Kids who are abused often take their anger and frustration out on 'weaker' children, including siblings. Just because siblings don't want to be separated, doesn't mean they shouldn't be in some cases. Kids also very often want to stay with their abusive parents and feel punished when removed, but we don't allow them to make that call either. Even the kids who are being violent can benefit from separation from the victim-sibling, in conjunction with therapy to understand why they are hurting someone they love. This behavior has probably been learned from adult caregivers, and it takes time and space to change long-term attitudes and habits.

Exactly, sometimes siblings have to be separated and it doesn't mean always. It means they need to be able to work through their trauma, receive therapy and other services as needed. IF they don't separate kids acting out, it can be very dangerous and just opens up the possibility of another tragedy. Bless these kids, I pray they are able to heal from this and have the best life they deserve to have. NO child should have to go through this

You know what's weird, I think the father will probably do just that. He seems to understand the magnitude of the situation and he seems to be ready and willing to help and comply in any way he can. I think he's learned his lesson with this stint in prison and is ready to be a father. He didn't say much, and I don't know anything about him, but just based on his reactions to the questions and his demeanor, my gut tells me he's going to do well. I hope I'm right.

As someone in child welfare: dad is NOT being selfish at ALL for wanting his daughter to be with family. He wants her to be safe with people he feels he can trust. She’s also the oldest and is likely being put in a mothering position and been parentified, which is not healthy, especially not during traumatic grief. She would still be allowed contact with her siblings. Placing with family is actually preferred and while it does often mean separation, the court and dcbs usually work pretty hard to ensure kids have visits and time with their siblings.

I’m a foster mom and placing her with “family” she’s never known isn’t any different than placing her with complete strangers. It would be traumatic to separate her from other siblings even if she was playing a parental role. If she is in a good foster home that burden would be lifted while staying connected to the only family she knows right now. Plus she’s old enough to voice where she wants to be. Dad hasn’t been involved for many years and is now incarcerated. Who’s to say he’s looking out for his child’s best interest. He knows nothing about his daughter and what she may want nor is he considering it.

I know that when my cousin's children were emergency removed I told the cps worker to remove the girls from the boys. The girls were caring for the boys as if they were the parents, and I told cps they needed to be kids. I had all five of them with us for three months, and I struggled to keep them from "parenting" each other. They have been adopted now into seperate houses. The girls are being kids again, and doing great. The boys are growing up well, too. All are safe. A sibling violence or "parenting" behavior is so sad. She probably is blaming herself for the baby's death, and it would not be her fault. 😢

Yes, separation in conjunction with therapy could help to break these violent patterns and help *all* the children to be safe while learning how to engage with each other in a healthy way. It's odd how they remove kids when they know their parents are violent, but they don't react with the same level of protectiveness when they know siblings are violent with each other. It can be just as damaging to be abused by any family member.

From the sounds of it only the one child is his? And it’s very reasonable for a child to be placed with their family. The other children could go to someone who they’re related to as well if they were able to take them in, it’s not on people who aren’t related to them to take on extra mouths with no legal bond. In cases of child abuse depending on the circumstances it may be that the only way they can in fact heal their trauma is to be taken to a completely different situation for therapy, away from other abusers or victims. They stated the other children were violent so why would you consider leaving her with the other children who likely caused her harm? She deserves better and to heal with her families help who can show her love in a long term and meaningful way.

Olney police were called to 104 E. Springcreek Rd. on March 29 to assist with an unresponsive child, according to a press release by the Texas Department of Public Safety and OPD. OPD Chief Dan Birbeck and Detective Dustin Hudson “were suspicious of the circumstances and called the Texas Rangers to assist,” the release said.

The father, in jail, yet is more concerned than the mother. His question about not losing rights to the child sounded like a desperate father trying to make sense of a senseless situation. The mother and husband should never be able to be near these kids. It would be nice to keep the girls together but what if in the future the mother gets custody? What if she tries to kidnap them? It has happened before in cases. The fact that the father is in prison does not mean he's not concerned or doesn't want the best for his child. Already the younger girls are bullying the girl.

It is interesting reading the comments about the cousin vs Foster Care placement situation, I am a little torn myself. I can see how Davian may interalize being away from her siblings, and she may insist she doesn't want to be separated, however childern do not always know what is best for them, which is why we do not place them in the types of positions where they are making life altering decisions. My instinct is telling me that Davian only has one childhood that is slipping by, she should be given the opportunity to be a child, not be Mother Hen to her siblings, and be abused at their hands. Give the cousin a chance, with close supervision.

I grew up around archery equipment and my parents had very different bows. Now the expert couldn't say for sure who owned it based solely on the size, but they can say who wouldn't use it. The witness wasn't making any big assumptions and I get so annoyed when creators doubt someone who was qualified as an expert without providing any information that they think the expert wasn't taking into account.

Yana was the 6th child of Jasmine. There are 4 girls & 1 boy living, but I would've sworn they were only talking about 3 kids in placement? I could've missed somethin', though. Shoot! I'm a pretty darn good "Googler" but I can not find any news at all related to this case! The entire county has less than 8500 residents, but I'd have thought there'd be news stories.

Olney woman arrested in child death at RV park Wed, 12/06/2023 - 11:00pm By: Gina Keating | Editor A 27-year-old Olney woman was arrested on a charge of criminally negligent homicide in the death of her eight-monthold child in a local recreational vehicle park in March. Olney police were called to 104 E. Springcreek Rd. on March 29 to assist with an unresponsive child, according to a press release by the Texas Department of Public Safety and OPD. OPD Chief Dan Birbeck and Detective Dustin Hudson “were suspicious of the circumstances and called the Texas Rangers to assist,” the release said. A Young County Grand Jury reviewed the case and returned an indictment against Jasmin Alexis Kay Smith for criminally negligent homicide on Nov. 20, the statement said. Ms. Smith was arrested in Jack County two days later, the statement said.

Re archery - it is something he’d be able to estimate. A 50lb draw on your finger tips is incredibly heavy, and it’s really unlikely that someone with no experience could use it on a long bow. 25lb is a good starting weight for women. That weight is what they require for moose and bears.

This was heartbreaking to hear, not only of the passing of a precious baby girl but what those sweet girls have had to endure. All because their loser of a “so called mother” chose a loser and monster “boy” (he isn’t a man!) over her little girls! I truly hope and pray that the father of the oldest girl is able to turn his life around, step up, and be the best father and parent he can be. It’s time for her to be a little girl and not a babysitter/mother at her age, let alone be beat up repeatedly by her younger sisters! I hope and pray these little girls can all heal from the trauma their abusive parents put them through and allowed them to see. God bless them Please show or give us updates on this case if possible.

I think that bit about the bow and arrow was to point to the fact that a male was around and living at the home at the time of the baby's death. Given the CPS history, and the father of the last three children's criminal history, it could be that the only reason mom had custody back was that the baby daddy had to stay away. I think they were trying to prove that along with the video footage etc.
