Should I turn my brother and sister in law in for child neglect?
My husbands brother (J) and wife (A) have 3 children ages, 3, 2 and 1. (from here on out I will name them as such) "A" is currently pregnant with number 4. Child "3" seemed to be taken care of as an infant, until "2" came along, then "2" almost starved because "A" didn't want to give him formula. "3's"behavior has gone down hill ever since. Then came the dropping off at grandmas house. These two take every chance they can get to leave their kids with grandma! "J's" mother, my mother in law. She is the sweetest women ever, and would never tell anyone no, no matter what. Well, they seemed to have such a hard time handling the two they had, but they got pregnant again. Then they decided to remodel their house. So kids were with grandma more. By this time, "A" would leave "3" alone in the car, because he fell asleep, and she didn't want to wake him up. "J" also left "3" asleep in a semi truck, for the same reason. But he woke up and was all over the place! He was 2 at the time. Well, so she gave birth to "1" and decided she would keep him on a diet of milk and raw honey. I was always told that was bad for children, especially raw! There are too many instances for me to mention of them leaving kids in cars, having them sleep in laundry rooms, etc. Now they have moved to an acreage, so they can let the kids outside and not worry about them. So this crazy wench, lets "3" and "2" outside alone, while she says in the house!!!! Mind you they live in the middle of a field, where tractors etc. are coming and going in the spring and fall. Well, yesterday I find out that she doesn't put sunscreen on them because it is bad for them, and "1" looked like he had a 3rd degree burn! His arms were about to blister, and all 3 of these kids have golden tans already! And it isn't even summer! I also found out that one of my other sister in laws went out to visit and "1" (the one year old) was playing in a sand pit, with no adult in sight. Dad was in a machine shed, and mom was in the house. Well now she is going to have another, and all hell is going to break loose. My husbands other siblings (3 sisters) are all at their wits end. But no one wants to step up and say anything, because they think it isn't their business. Well, I don't want a kid to get hurt, I did speak up about the honey, and man, did I get into trouble! The list goes on and on and on. What should I do!! Call DHS when I know they are outside alone? Or just let a kid get hurt? I have one child of my own, and have been struggling for 2.5 years to have another. He is my life, and I can't ever imagine leaving him alone, or doing these idiotic things like they are! How is it fools can reproduce like crazy but good people can't. Its all so frustrating. Hopefully this all makes sense! I tried to condense it as much as possible. OH another thing, they are all about church and politics etc. They put on a show like you can't believe. They are horrible hypocrites as well. They reticule people for letting grandma and grandpa raise their grandkids, and they do it 110% worse!!! They also use slang terms for African Americans, Mexicans etc. Anyone other than white, they call some name. But they act all holier than thou around everyone else. It makes me want to vomit!!!!!
