“K”
“I’m baby”?
Did she mean “I’m busy”?
If so this is messed up.
I'm guessing it's supposed to be "I am, baby" (in response to 'are you coming home') but written in a panicked haste.
Anyone thinking she'd have the time or calm to properly spell check before sending when her kid's in danger is delusional.
She is a baby. I guess she was on some good stuff.
K
I'm baby
Imagine responding like that to any Lemmy post:
*Proton endorses Trump
*K
*Gaza ceasefire
*I'm baby
Mom is texting while driving and freaking out, that's why her texts are like that
This seems to be the actual reporting: https://abc7.com/montclair-teen-saves-niece-home-invasion-quick-thinking-home-invasion/1781013/
TL:DR her mom called the police and a neighbor and the neighbor loudly arrived spooking the intruder

Sounds like when the guy knocked on the door she could've just shouted "we don't want any" and he would've left
Comments are funny and this girl was so smart and fast it's incredible. But I have a question because I'm not American and I see this all the time: why do they make/let 14year olds babysit toddlers and babies. I understand that it's cheaper or free if it's a family member. But there are many emergencies (more common than this one) that I don't think a teen is matured or prepared for, seems crazy to me to leave a child in the care of another child
Because emergencies are so rare. Many adults are quite unprepared for a lot of them as well.
It's different if you were to leave like a 1-2 year old in the care of someone but it's generally okay to leave a 5-10 year old in the care of a 14-15 year old. They mostly just need to feed them and make sure they go to bed.
Plus it gives the teens responsibility and some extra money to spend and it helps them get prepared for the future. Usually if it's a super young one the teens tend to have first and courses suitable for young children as well or actual baby sitting certifications from a course of some sort.
I suspect it's legal because it was a prevalent practice before laws were made, and nobody wanted to change that so they just made sure the law allowed for what they were already doing. For example, Kansas was part of a "territory" before it was a state, so only the USA as a whole had authority, and I doubt there were many laws about the subject we're discussing, so there was probably literally no local law enforcement in most of Kansas at some point. Additionally, in the USA people settled / farm(ed) by having one family live far away from everyone else (as opposed to in Europe where it was supposedly more common to have a central place where a lot of people lived and then they would walk to their sector of farmland that surrounds the town). This means that people with 8 kids probably assigned any 14 or 16 or 12 year olds to watch the younger kids, while the adults and older children were out farming or preparing food (which took a lot more time in the past), since there was no other adult that was physically close by (and any that were would probably have to attend to their own farm/business rather than help with raising someone else's kids).
You had a good run mummy wants her white claw wednesdays back
"I'm baby" yup I feel that.
Who is bebby?
The mom

Imagine if the last thing you saw from your mom was k.
Fun fact: this comment makes sense both in English and in Spanish!
FYI: Text to 911 is a thing in many places.
What happens if it isn't available in your area do you get a notification or you just sit there waiting?
That why you own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion.He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up, Just as the founding fathers intended
I mean... That was exactly the right thing to do.
Respond as fast as possible as clearly as possible.But looking back on it, it is pretty fucking funny to read.
Y'all focused on the wrong thing. How the fuck you pronounce the nieces name?
Zoyee?
I'm listening.
what name?
I am wondering too, and I’m kind of worried it’s an awful spelling of Zoë?
Ah! We have a version of the tragedeigh sub over here too! It's only got one post though, but this would fit right in it!
What hurts the most is that "here me"
Imagine being someone that thinks grammar is most important when someone's braking in to you're house
braking in to you’re house
Should I call 911?
Yeah, undereducated people really suck, huh?
