Would you be hesitant to call CPS on a close friend or family member?
Well first of all I would not have a friend that was that quick to inflict pain upon another regardless. Child abuse is an extremely terrible act to think about much less witness. I would without a doubt call them on her and I would not give a DAMNED if she found it it was me.No child or living thing deserves abuse of any kind.

Yes for the child's sake do and soon. The woman is a danger to the boy. Do it before you end up having to go the the boy's funeral.
The CPS will not tell any one who did the calling. But if she does attack you all I can say is call the police. It sounds to me like she needs help badly, and will not get any till forced to.
Now, this is not a case of a poor family. They own a home in a rich neighborhood -- they probably make about 80,000 a year (about twice what my family lives on). So these sweet little girls live in this environment!
It makes me sad! Now, many friends of this woman have gone in multiple times and gotten things cleaned up -- only to have the house back in the same horrible condition only weeks later. Many of us have talked to her, given ideas about how to set up a cleaning schedule, offered to keep her girls so she could clean, and offered to help her clean.
Her husband's family also lives in town and while they are appalled, they have kind of given up -- having done the same cleaning help that friends have done. So the question is -- should I call? Would it make things better or worse?
I can't stand the thought of these sweet little girls (who are good friends with my daughters) living like this. It really breaks my heart. Would DHS take the girls away if they saw the house?
Because my friend is really an amazing mother -- she just really stinks at housecleaning. :( And I don't want the kids taken from her. But I wonder if this would be the rude wake up call she needs to finally make some changes.
Ok -- please give me your thoughts. I need some perspective here.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
