Was she supposed to clone herself and take over both roles? Sorry but I'm so tired of women being blamed for men's actions. They're to blame for leaving the child with the father, called gold diggers if they don't leave the child with the father and act as the stay-at-home parent, often blamed if they're sexually assaulted or blamed for doing _something_ if their spouse abuses them and on and on.

Are you kidding though? “Find somebody who would love to take care of that child“ -how many foster kids do you have? nobody benefits from this willful ignorance of the foster care system. Unfortunately, nobody wants other peoples children, especially if they’re older than six months. I know because I grew up in the foster care system and it’s a very sad situation.

Why is God so cruel, just watching, not helping?????

@@Redeleiser there is no God. Hopefully people just try to be good, but somehow they always manage to justify their messed up behavior.

@@hvm5210As somebody who went into the system at 16, I can attest to the validity of this. I met so, SO many girls who had been in the system since infancy, and ended up aging out with no love or supports. A few even found out their "loving foster family" (often a family they had been with for 5-10 years and viewed as real family) only viewed them as a cash cow for the increase in "compensation" for their issues toward the end. It's so sick and wrong. It is *VERY* unlikely to be adopted out of the system as a baby with so many other babies in need of homes, and every year you sit in the system with more and more psychological issues beginning to fester and grow, the less your chance of adoption becomes. It's absolutely effing tragic. Everybody wants "blank, clean slate baby" but there aren't nearly enough people willing to adopt to account for all those babies, and after the age of 4-5, your chances of being adopted are slim to none, because nobody wants a "broken, traumatized kid". It's just so effing sad that it keeps me up at night. And all but one of those girls I met, who I still keep in contact with at 30, have gone on to either p3rpetuate the cycle (losing their kids due to drug/abuse issues early on) or have ended up in jail- same as the parents who lost them. Heartbreaking. The one success story I know grew up to become an absolutely incredible hairdresser, with a child of her own that she loves more than life itself- but she is seriously rare outlier compared to the DOZENS I met who ended up perpetuating the cycle of abuse and neglect... because abuse and neglect is all they ever knew. How can you really blame them for it? What do you even do as a society to fix this? I'm at a loss.

[@brennoxwallace2203]

@@hvm5210 my parents were Foster parents my entire life. And I’m getting ready to go thru the training and everything so I can become one. I’m a mom of 3 and now that my kids are almost grown I want to give back to my community and become a foster parent. So you think instead of finding someone who’s love to have a baby, killing it is the better option? And our whole foster system needs shit down and rebuilt. It’s awful. Too many kids dying under the ever watchful eye of CPS. And sorry you had a bad life but that doesn’t mean you get to dictate how other people think and express their thoughts.

[@latisaclewis342]

This is beyond horrific. I'll never understand a grown adult could inflict brutality on a baby. As a mother of a toddler, this makes me sick to my stomach.

[@shannonvogel825]

Why would she think marrying this man would be a good idea!!

[@stompthedragon4010]

It just seems to get worse and worse. Seizures? Suspect seizures? It's called the ER.Prolonged seizures can cause brain damage. Damn! They destroyed this poor baby. WHY? WHY do they let these monsters out? We dont need to ask why it continues.

I just wanted to say I have been a fan of your channel pretty much from the beginning. I have multiple KZbin accounts and all of them have your channel added. Thank you for all the hard work you 2 put into your videos. It is always clear how much you care about the victims whose stories you share. I'm so glad you guys are still keeping it real and strong enough to continue producing content that must take its toll on your hearts. Please know your hard work is appreciated. Thanks again. ❤

Thank you so much for the very kind words!!

[@kathyvick2710]

Why did Molly say the baby was ok after the father said to come look at him (stiffening, etc), goes to work, but then complains to coworkers that she was worried about the baby??? It makes NO sense!!! IF she was worried….why didn’t she rush him to the ER??? Sounds like she wasn’t very responsible as well as she should have left this guy when he wanted to hurt the unborn baby. No good can come from knowing that! Poor baby!!! 💙🙏

What woman continues with a relationship, engaged with a Bear, six feet four, who has violently scared her and threatened her at Five feet tall??

[@reneehouser2925]

A gold digger with a zero self esteem. That's what kind of woman sells her dreams, her self and sacrifices her first born for $.

[@bostonb4kedbeans]

Your answer is in your own comment, genius. Fear makes you do things you normally wouldn't. He could've threaten her and the babies life.

[@laurendaryani4893]

​@@bostonb4kedbeansThis is what's so messed up. I was wondering why she wouldn't leave after the threats he made against their unborn baby, but then one has to think that this is a man who easily could have killed her for trying to leave him. You never know with these violent, sadistic, controlling POSs.
