by Brooke
(North Carolina, USA)

I have a 2 and a half year old cousin..she lives with her mom, her 3 year old sister and her moms mom... her grandmother and great grandmother are the ones abusing her.. they call her devil child and the grandmother has hit her with a paint can..enough to leave a gash...and consistently beats her with a fly swatter..we all know that they hurt bad...she has come to me with scratches on her neck and feet and told me herself that her "meemaw" hit her with a fly swatter...it is obvious that she hit her hard considering how hard it is to leave scratches with a fly swatter... the father C---- is paying child support for both of his girls but the mom wont let him see them because they are beginning to really talk and tell him what is going on.. the 3 year old is not being abused in any way because she is the favorite..kind of like the princess and the 2 year old is abused because she looks so much like her daddy.. they call her evil, deceitful, and the mother has even said she is the ugliest baby in the world where she can here it...one day her sister and her were playing in my dining room and the sister knocked over a glass vase on a stand and the 3 year old said her sister did it and just waited...mean while the 2 year huddled in the corner and yelled " no no no!!!" neither i nor my mother would hit either of the babies we have only witnessed it and try to reassure her that shes ok and shes not in trouble... i babysat her ALOT usually her and not her sister because as i said the sister is the princess... i was volunteering one day and on my way to the car which she and my mom where in waiting on me..my mom had told her we were taking her to her mommy and she began a frantic fit yelling no multiple times and kicking and screaming...i sat in the back with her to calm her down..when we reached her mom i had her unbuckled waiting for her mom to get there and the minute she saw her moms car she jumped out of her seat across to me and began crying terribly...when her mom opened the door to get her she slapped the air towards her screaming no and grabbing me... i went home with them that night and at bed time the mom gave them a bath and put the 2 yr old in the bed with no lights, shut the door and let her scream while the 3 yr old got to sit in the living room and watch dora until she fell asleep...unfair!!! the father is now fighting for joint custody and we find the results out next friday... pray for her please she does not deserve this

This baby cannot protect herself. You must act. Please contact your local Child Protective Agency or contact Child Help at 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453) in order to talk to someone about the abuse you know about. They are staffed 24/7 with professionally trained counsellors who can help you determine who to call about reporting the abuse. Visit their website by copying & pasting the following URL into your browser: http://www.childhelp.org/get_help

I must also point out that both the 2-year-old and the 3-year-old are being abused, only differently. The 3-year-old is witnessing the abuse of her sister, and that is a form of emotional abuse. She is also being taught through favoritism that it's okay to mistreat the 2-year-old. In fact, she's being groomed to do so. That most definitely is a form of abuse, a form of neglect. I can only hope the custody arrangement changes for the sake of both these babies.

Thank you for sharing your cousins' story with my visitors and me.

The sooner, the better...Darlene is right!
by: Anonymous

Brooke, Darlene is totally right; I can't believe that your cousin had to stay with her sick, sadistic monsters for mother, grandmother and great-grandmother and have them beat and berate her 24/7...how dare they! Babies can't defend themselves...and if those sick, sadistic women didn't want to be there, they should've had the courage to give her up for adoption instead of sadistically abusing her. The path that they chose is inexcusable. Oh, and did I mention that they also abused her older sister by grooming her to be anti-social towards her? Oh, and they are wrong, wrong, WRONG! That baby is not evil; she's not decietful; she's a good person. She's not ugly; she's a really beautiful baby who only deserves love, dignity, protection and respect, all of which they sadistically denied her of. Please tell someone you really trust about what's going on (besides that poor baby's dad) and keep telling until he/she will finally listen to you and help that poor baby. Those sad, tragic women must go to jail for all those terrible crimes that they committed against her because she did nothing wrong. Plus, abusers don't stop abusing until they're made to stop.

by: maurice

Darlene's heart has spoken to you: You are a loving, caring, concerned, gentle, kind, understanding brave cousin on your baby cousins behalf: Darlene sure has heard your cry for help for them both: She has with the other comments given you hopefully the courage to speak to someone who will take them away from those beasts of Mom and Grand-mother: It is unreal, unnatural, for a mother to abuse her child and let her mother in turn abuse her grand-child: You be brave, have courage, don't be afraid follow Darlene's comment and get protection for these innocents: They will thank you for your love and caring of them: Yes, you are in a predicament, making you fearful and afraid, yet by your finding Darlene's site your heart tell you differently: These little children have no voice but yours, they trust you and you see the evidence of what they are telling you: You'll do what you know to be best for them: With your friends help: support encouragment you will talk with some-one who will help them:

please help this baby
by: Gianna

That poor baby girl, please report this mother that is abusing this child. Call the cops or a child abuse hotline, and don't stop calling them until they remove these children from this woman. Someone needs to help these kids, people that see abuse need to report it, and keep reporting over and over as many times as you have to call the agency until someone helps these kids.

You need to do what is right!
by: Chelsea

You are the only voice that this child has at this moment, and you need to protect her in anyway that you can. Who else will speak up for this baby?? You are a good, kind soul and know what is right and what is wrong. Please put yourself in the shoes of that little girl and what you would want someone to do for you, imagine crying, feeling alone, being hurt, abused physically and emotionally.... I am sure you would pray for someone anyone to step in and stop it all. This baby needs love and thankfully she gets it from you and your mom. She needs to feel protected, Imagine if something serious happened to her and you could have intervened but didnt.... Could you live with yourself if you knew you had the chance to protect a baby and you just turned your head and looked the other way?? I know I would do anything in my power to protect a baby that I knew was being abused. You can call and report it anonymously, you dont even have to say your name and if you do it is illegal from them to tell the mother who called. Good luck to you and I have faith that you will do what is right.
