@user-jk8sh2zm3l Yes it is an abuse, if it is an abuse when done to an adult, it is absolutely the same when it comes to children. I am sure you are not aware of the statistics, so here they are, children that are physically hit are incredibly more likely to: 1) suffer learning disability 2) in teen years develop substance addiction (due to lowering of neuro receptors) 3) in teen years are more likely to develop aggression/depression 4) have harder time concentrating, which considering that the child has ADHD, she is making the condition worse not better. It is sad that our justice system allows such people to continue destroying child's futures.
@@peztopher7297 I rewatched it to double check; it is the same woman. Her dress just looks a little different as the sun is setting (same tat on left shoulder). She is beautiful inside and out 💕 Edit: romper not dress, my bad
It honestly comes off more like she was getting even with the woman for hitting her as opposed to just simply out of the goodness of her heart for the child
This young man is going to be a fantastic father one day! God bless this young couple! They both deserve medals for their actions. What a horrible mother this woman is. God give her some sense, please 🙏
Typical.... Y'all always worried about black people tho.... Typical typical. Then when y'all do something wrong you try to single them out by saying "Karen".... Nooooo it's all of yas
As someone with a mom who was unfortunately pretty similar in some regards even if my story was also quite different than this little boy's... as an adult I still would be pretty scared of a person this chaotically yelling in public. But I still would do what I could to protect a little boy especially with the support of other adult friends or family or kind strangers also on my side in the situation. One on one n it would be hard to know how far I'd go before I had police backup though. I might be too scared to choose a 1 on 1 confrontation with that lady.
tbh alot of parents do that including my own mother but technically they cant do anything because its supposed to cover things in the household not just the child
Yeah they're probably living it up on the $600 a month. I want to know their secret in that case because I'm autistic and every time I've applied for ssdi they're like "oh you can get a job that will work with your autism" but then they never have any suggestions for what job that is.
@@-jessie-49It's almost like slamming children into things isn't excusable (hint: it's not). She could have called for help, but she chose to be abusive.
@@valafarcedricsmith Having a child with mental health issues can be extremely challenging. You're right about her needing to seek help if she can't handle it. However it's not an easy task to put oneself in her boots to understand why she did what she did. Everyone has his limits (even you). The first step is to know them.
@@peggypasson8794 as an Iowan, I’ve discovered it’s most likely because the school systems do NOTHING about the bullying, harassment, and mistreatment, causing the kids to snap and say “this isn’t going to happen in front of me again.” I am one of these kids, my highschool, commonly known as su!c!de high because of this problem, does nothing but put up posters. I’ve told my school that the next time a bully goes unchecked around me or my friends I’M handling it MYSELF and guess what? They started doing something. Only two three years of getting on good terms with the principals and getting good grades before they decided to say ”we don’t want this kid to get in trouble, this is a good kid with potential” and actually start acting (and even taking my advice of harsher punishments like moving the bully to another class and after school detention instead of in school detention getting them out of class. I’m keeping this attitude when I get out of this h3llhole.
ranting alone in the police car, she goes, “Brendon always has a way of making things worse!” in the most blame-shifting tone, you can definitely tell it’s her normal cope and defense mechanism. sick, and sad
I said that too. It broke my heart to see a child run to a stranger. Ive always been this way with abused kids in public. Caught a lot of slack for it. But do the right thing.
Him feeling comfortable enough to be held and carried by the absolutely wonderful woman in the red dress speaks volumes because autistic children usually have issues with being touched, especially by strangers. Hell, even autistic adults often have issues with being touched by strangers, myself being one of them. Especially throwing PTSD into the mix which poor Brandin undoubtedly has. This woman presented herself so openly and kindly and protectively that those boundaries stopped existing for just a moment. She's the kind of person every kid who's being abused deserves to run into. Real life superhero.
Absolutely but it’s learned behavior. My daughter did not like being touched ( hugs) and at 15 she is ok with it. I give her space to unwind after the school day and she appears to be happy
@sheilaboston7051 People can have both and coming from a situation like this would definitely leave him with some deep traumas that would most likely constitute a PTSD diagnosis
@@netheriteknives9882 it’s also worth noting that some autistic people tend to get attached to a particular person or thing. His safe space or safe person. And his safe person at the moment is the lady in the red dress
The way he asks "Are you taking my mom to jail?" with concern, breaks my heart. Children are loyal, even towards undeserving parents. It's heartbreaking.
When you put it that way... Dang... That hits me in the gut... When he said that, I was like we "whew"... but then you put it that way and it broke my heart same with people who beat innocent dogs and they just hang in there no matter what too.
I saw a social worker discussing how she observed in her experience that the child who clings to and protects the parent the most usually are the most abused, that behavior comes from them wanting to be loved and accepted by the abusive parent. Hungry for love
@@ljl8764 I have a friend who along with his wife, have fostered several children, due in part to their inability to have their own. He & his wife are so gentle & kind, people you'd trust with anything from fine china to plutonium. Just calm, pleasant, generous people. I spoke with him about how the child they've had for years now is doing - and this kid was a handful, always getting kicked out of school, etc. He's doing ok, but barely - and I heard my friend say for the first time ever & hopefully the last time, that given the opportunity, he would "mouse drag to select all the text, then hit backspace" the kid's bio-parents. Pardon my metaphor - but he wasn't speaking metaphorically. The more love these kids get, the vulnerability goes against what's now instinct. Love isn't enough.
That child’s problem is NOT ADHD. His problem is that he lives with a mentally ill and abusive mother who should have lost custody of her son a long time ago!
Thank you!!! Everyone still saying “he’s difficult, has ‘something’ going on clearly” etc etc. It’s called trauma. Get that child in therapy, and love on him, and give him all the patience and support he never had and I guarantee he will transform. I’m not saying he doesn’t have ADHD, but you can’t see it here. I don’t know any child who wouldn’t act like him dealing with that as a mother. Even at the hospital, he needs someone to sit with him and chat and give him attention. He is clearly acting out because he’s been through it and wants someone to pay attention to him. I feel for him, and I bet if red dress woman who was with him at the gas station was there, she could manage him. When he was there with her kids he sat quietly with all the chaos going on. Because he was being cared for.
Time and time again ignorant abusive people think they can beat mental illness out of a child whiles they're the ones making everything 100 times worse. She's all memememe and the poor kid is this and that. Poor kid doesn't stand a chance with that woman. Clearly "mom" never wanted the poor kid and he will think thats his fault. That's how he's feeling. I know from experience
That mom's probably got an undiagnosed processing disability, too. I wonder if she'd make better choices if she was more aware of her own frustration. That quickness to anger could be bpd or a bpd like trait of asd. I am aware of my quickness to anger and frustration that swells when things are not perfect. I take my autistic behind away from a situation to calm down and walk or smoke it off. She could probably get use from walking that anger off. Getting the blood flowing helps unblock that mind. She could be npd, though. If the dad passed the disability genetically, he might have been manipulated and easily controlled by a npd partner. That gaslighting she attempts is familiar to red flags I've dated.
As soon as she said to the officer in the back of the car "He's due for his medication when we get back home" remained me of the thriller movie "Run" where a young girl named Chloe Sherman is made to believe that she is extremely sick by her mother and take's pills then aren't meant for her.
You can tell from the fact she's just screaming "I want my kid, give me my son" over and over she just sees him as something she owns. That kid is just property to her. So gross.
I feel like her behavior explains exactly his, she acts just like him the only difference she's a grown up and he's just a kid raised by a terrible and uneducated mother. She throws a tantrum when she doesnt get what she wants, disrespects and questions authority all the time, she literally acts like an infant whose parents dont care to educate
I think she is just hysterical. There's more than what we see here. She acted obviously were horrible and abusive by throwing him to the ground, but it seems like she's having a panic attack. That's why she repeats the same thing over and over again. We can see she loves him when she's in the back of the car and her child comes to her.
Did some quick research, saw a report saying she was charged with child endangerment and abuse and lost custody of BOTH of her kids. God bless the two who stepped in. If you noticed they had a kid of their own, and stepped in to protect a child that wasn’t there.
Abortion is a selfless and kind act. It’s a medical procedure that terminates a pregnancy. Discontinuing pregnancy when you shouldn’t be having a child should be applauded. It’s a mature choice. It’s also very personal. Maybe if this crazy abusive psycho of a woman had an abortion, a child would have been spared horrific abuse. Poor little Brenden’s soul could have been born into a different body, with different parents, with different circumstances, and could have had a beautiful life. The reality is…The more abortion and birth control are limited…the more you’re going to see situations like this. It’s sad. Quality over quantity of life.
Not really. It's pretty common. Strangers help kids pretty reliably. If it's two adults fighting, most strangers won't get involved because they don't know what is going on, but if a parent is abusing their kid in public like this, most people will do what they can to help the kid. You'll notice it wasn't 1 person stepping up, it was most of the people in the store. And then they called other strangers (the police) to come help as well.
Both my parents and i have been mandated reporters f9r a few reasons in the past and learned a lot about how cps and all that stuff works and it is heartbreaking what they will let a child go through before they remove them from a family. They will leave a kid in a home sleeping on a floor with no pillow only having a bowl of cheerios for food and if the kid isnt covered in injuries or starving to death theyll leave the kid in the home. It is heartbreaking the cruelty some kids have to go through in order to be saved from abusive homes.
When the dude said “I’m not gonna let you disrespect no child in my face” it made me tear up. Im so thankful people like him step in to protect kids from abusive people
I've noticed the guy in white shirt trying to stop the guy from intervening but he stood up for the poor boy all the way till cops arrived. On behalf of us, parents, thank you Sir!
@@msriver11 I was with him until I saw him laughing in her face. Some people just stir stuff up. I thought it was good when he stepped in, he didn't know when to step out.
Yes, lady in red took the first punch, as seen on the store footage, and still said she’d be a witness and testify for the boy. And still was able to record the whole mess effectively! 🙏🏼 Also I thought it was very touching when the cops arrived, to see all the children seated with her son and sharing snacks with him. The caring mentality of the parents clearly is picked up on in their kids. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
I love the fact that there was a whole community there to protect this innocent child. Everyone jumped in rather than saying it isn't their business or their place.
@shirleysp8176 it's not every single person's role to act, it needs to be filmed too, and many people myself included would only aggrevate the situation further. Relax bro.
Kids from abusive/toxic households who experience stuff like that regularly just think it's normal and don't realize that other parents don't do that stuff too, coming from personal experience.
My mom is like this mom, so I get it. Its just very sad to see it happening to another child. In childhood I remember begging my mom to hug me after she slapped the fuck out of me in a fit of rage. I was 9. All i did was ask her a question. Dont remember the question but ai remember her snapping in anger and slapping the absolute shit out of me.
now that he's had a little taste of the outside world, like in school, it's likely he knows he did not deserve any of that. Unfortunately, due to her blaming him and willing to give him up, he's probably absorbed minor details the grownups did not pick up on, and it will take a lifetime for someone to break through to him that THIS incident and him getting separated from his mom, is NOT his fault, if they even can :(
yes , in such case it is the best way to do , and the police ware real gentlemen's to, just wow how they have handled this situation very calm and respectfully , my head off for them
He could have walked on and let it happen and mind his own business, but he helped. 🥲 I'm so glad someone cared. That child doesn't deserve to have his mother treat him like that.
I work in disability with lots of children. I have endless empathy and time for these children, but I'd be lying if I said I could cope with my child having severe autism etc. I've seen it cause divorce, suicide, and everything else in-between of the parents of these children. This lady is fucked, I'm trying not to reason with her BUT having so much experience in the field I also have empathy for her situation too -- it's more difficult than you can imagine. Ultimately if she can't cope, the kid needs to go elsewhere.
@@seventeen9718Yes, I agree. Not all of us have developed enough patience or other necessary skills. I think all parents of children with these types of conditions should get help, therapy, courses, etc
I raised 2 autistic sons. One had behaviors. I would of never done this. There was a mom of my son's classmate who ended up k*lling her son. He acted the same toward his mom l like this child. They don't know it's not okay how they are treated. And they do what these DHS workers were trying to do send him right back home.
My dad does this. He’s a huge dude and has used his threat to kick ass to stop people from mistreating service workers etc 😅 not the most orthodox method but it makes a change
@@courtneybowman1915 There's been no change. The kid is back with the mom and she's angrier than ever. She's going to channel the rage from the people who accosted her to the kid.
The fact those folks stopped their whole day to give comfort and normalcy to this kid while cops sorted everything out is pretty inspiring. The world ain’t so bad all the time.
@@Agentsex they have a point tho, if you've ever walked into a place where the residents call it "the hood" you should know that you will have a challenge to find any actual "ladies" there
When my husband was a teen, he went through a lot of mental health struggles. During a rage blackout, he threw something at his mother. His stepdad pinned him against a wall and said, “first off, that’s my wife. Don’t you ever threaten my wife. Second of all, that’s your mother”. Husband had a lot of respect for his late stepfather, and he especially respected him for putting his mother first. His stepfather was a very chill dude, a buddhist, but would not tolerate his wife being disrespected
If you are a loving Mom OR a Dad, you won't let anyone hurt a child, much less let it happen in the future if you have the means to stop it. Just normal kindness from normal parents. Not making it less important, but it should be natural, not exceptionnal.
@@Taking_Dawn_Archives No no of course I get it, but I know some parents who wouldn’t get involved just for the safety of them and their own kids, you know bystander effect.
@Michellehypocrisy the child has a disability. Her violence towards not only a vulnerable person but a vulnerable person who happens to be her son is disgusting.
That woman was fantastic for shielding the kid with her body. Massive props to the guy for instantly having her back and placing himself between him and her when Rejina started to get closer. "You touch her, you touch me too." Absolute W of a man.
@@ColletteKelly I love that he took her down. He seemed to be the first to step in for the child, then he followed through and protected his family while they joined him in the fight. This couple were so amazing to watch.
if she's slamming him down in public, it can only be 10x worse at home. he needs to be taken away from her custody immediately, the kid's life is literally in danger
The most horrifying thing (which is saying A LOT after watching this) is her words, “I’ve got a worker! And he’s taught me *how I dealt with it!* “. Who are these workers she keeps talking about? How are these “people” the professional caretakers of children? Anyone that’s worked with that child and saw nothing wrong with how he lives NEEDS to be investigated. Oh, that and her constantly blaming any escalation on her 9 year-old struggling with mental disorders.
I'm autistic so I know sometimes it's hard, but I also know that an adult screaming at me will just make me more upset. So it is indeed the parent who makes things worse. I mean just like with any kid, just give him the chance to calm down instead of THROWING him. Lady should've said "Okay Brendin we're going into the QuikTrip to buy XYZ. That's all we're getting. It should only take about 5 minutes." So they guy in there, buy XYZ, Brendin might start getting upset, so she says "Now Brendin I told you all we were gonna buy is XYZ. Why don't you take some deep breaths for me?"
I'm willing to bet that most of his behavior problems are a result of her antagonistic parenting style. When a autistic person/child gets overwhelmed the last thing you want to is upset them even more. All those threats were only making things worse.
It definitely shows she needs help as well. This is not how we treat any child, yours or not, especially a special needs child. I hope she can get counseling and treatment while serving her sentence.
yeah especially since he is a kid, he doesnt know he has an issue or problem, he is just being himself. Hopefully he gets proper care and the mother takes some ownership of her own issues. Raising a kid is rough, especially one with some mental or physical disability, but it was your choice to bring them into the world.
@@MsAnthropicthe one person I told about the abuse told my dad and mom. I WISH I had someone like these people. Someone who saw past the shmoozing narcissistic language and got me and my siblings to safety.
Yooo I made a joke literally like 2 days ago about how people say standing on business? I said give it like 2 months before it's somthing stupider than that I swear to GAWD I said 10 flat!!! Thank you 😊
That woman in red is amazing. The fact the little boy trusted a complete stranger to hide behind over his own mother speaks volumes. But for that lady to continue to stand in front and protect him, even with the mother getting into her face, what an incredible woman. Just shows there are still genuinely caring people in this world. Thank god for those bystanders. This woman deserves to never have a child in her custody again. Hope they threw away the key.
It looked like she hit mom first. After a second look, she hit mom twice. Are you guys blind. She instigated the already crazy mom even more. She is a legend.....what BS.
@@peachyrider9987 so if you see a child being abused you would stay quiet? That alone makes her the aggressor.....and there's video all over the place, mom was out of control and she got handled.
I have 3 severely autistic children. They take the most patience and love. Dealing with their behavior woth anger is the absolute worst thing this"mother" can do
CPS/DHS apprehend kids first & ask questions later where i’m from. kids get wrongfully taken ALL. THE. TIME. this kid would’ve been in custody immediately if this happened, or at least a worker sent & care plan established. mom would not have gotten him without a long battle and trainings, etc. (even if she hadn’t gone to jail like she luckily did here. if she would’ve been released, he would’ve been home with her.. these people really did save him by intervening, recording evidence, staying there, etc etc etc.)
Ohhh please if that woman in the red was really worried about the kid why she ran after the fat white woman instead of attending the child that was thrown on the floor ? She didn’t even care look back or check up on him right away she put her hands on her first yea she hit the kid but hold the kid until the cops get there why put ur hands on her if ur so worried about the kid ??
Naw dey juss noisey doin it 4 attention not da kindness of der heart, dude in white even try 2 set in but blacc dude tell him 2 bak up …like dey want all attention on dem
i have autism and adhd and would often have meltdowns like that i public. while my mom was never that violent, she was occasionally physical when dealing with me and those memories stuck with me. i hope brendin is doing better now and he has the support he needs ❤
She acted like his treatment plan included body slams that people just didn't understand. Ma'am what? My son used to melt down everywhere that wasn't home basically because he was temperature averse and sensitive to sound and lights etc. Idk why people think hitting kids is the solution to crying. He's 15 now and does way better. My youngest is 8 and also has meltdowns and is super tall so me picking her up doesn't work so I just talk her to a safe place to have her feelings. but it only works because I'm her safe space and she trusts me enough to do that. Is it fun letting her meltdown while people stare at her in a way that breaks my heart? No. But why would I punish her for their biases? I'm sorry you went through that. I was a 80s/90s kid so spanking was a big part of my life with emotional dysregulation/issues and I have loving parents that I'm grateful for but those memories are still valid and hard for me.
Alot perhaps but that's not why he's screaming, kid has problems he's just scream overall all the time we all saw that here in the video him still screaming towards the end
Yeah kids that age are good in that way. I can't take my 6 year old anywhere without her making a best friend lol and the amount of kids she ends up bringing home I counted ten the other day and one of them didn't even talk so I've no clue how that worked but I just pour juice and get the snacks so what do I know.
He's nine, he's likely been taught that police are to be respected, both in children's programming and school. Autistic children are very compliant with kindly authority figures, esp those that are new to them and give off a gentle presence. They were quiet and talked to him kindly, and it still took a few tries, because he was recovering, not from a TANTRUM, but an AUTISTIC MELTDOWN.
They are manipulative he wanted something in the store and mom wouldn't give it to him maybe a stranger would an I think he got his way on that one. Judging is so easy if you are not that person
@@naomiashcraft8080 at 19:50 the mom body slams him onto the floor. In a public place. In front of a stranger. Could you imagine what she does to him in private? That kid was running for a reason 🥴
A round of applause for the MAN that stood up and protected that kid....and then stood in front of the woman and protected her as she protected the child.....you sir, are one in a million!!!!
My son is disabled, with very challenging behaviours, to the point of he can be extremely violent towards me. NEVER have I once laid a hand on him, even if Ive had to restrain him for his own safety. I understand being a parent of any child is challenging, but once you raise your hand to a child, YOU have lost control. I'm so grateful for the witnesses and those who intervened with this monster.
I got some respect for the girl in the red dress and her boyfriend the way she was holding the kid behind her back and protecting him is just the sweetest thing that I’ve seen.
Same. Ive seen it several times. The courts in this country think that being the child's mother automatically makes a woman fit to raise the child...even if the woman barely classifies as human
Had my fair share with DCS (ik they are technically different) and they suck. My dad has abused me multiple times and the most they would do is send him to a zoom class. He had abused me once before I got them involved, and to no surprise he did it once after. Now, he is trying to be able to have full access to my 2 younger sisters (via divorce from my mom, through shared custody) and because he filed, I can't testify against him. Safe to say, they suck.
Usually it's not DHS making that decision it's the courts. DHS can't remove without enough cause. I used to work for DHS and the judge would have our head on a platter if we removed a child and they didn't deem it worthy enough. Often we would beg to not let a child return home without a safety plan in place but the judge would just ignore us and send the child home. Of course we would end up getting another call about them being abused again and have to retraumatize the child with another removal. People don't see the behind the scenes of DHS. It's the judge and court system who ultimately decides what children get removed or not and decides if they return home and when.
Couple years ago I had to speak with my states DHS about a report I made and was told that their goal is never to take the kids and if there is any type of Plan B , they don’t remove the kid. Example: parents are drug addicts,but if there is a relative that picks the kids up or can be called to step in to watch them while parents are getting high; that’s reason enough to NOT remove the kids.
Bless the woman in the red dress for blocking the mother, and helping police with the child, along with staying there and helping out when she had the chance to leave, AND ONTOP OF THAT manage to keep calm of her own child and the others around her.
The kid that was hugging the woman with the black shirt. She even motioned the boy to come to her, she hugged him, she reassured everything will be ok. She is more capable of being a better person and a mother. Her Empathy gives her a golden heart, hope she adopted him.
“Brenden has a habit of making everything worse” blaming her abuse on her child astonishes me. She’s talking in the police car knowing full well that she’s being recorded and wants to seem innocent. Disgusting.
lmfaao thats what kills me! this demon acts like her grabbing and slamming her son to the ground by his neck is normal and *just* her disciplining him. how she kept arguing and just repeating “give me my son” “my son *is* adhd” makes me feel like shes just not all the way there mentally? idk
DHS should not say it doesn't meet the criteria for removal without seeing the video and knowing that mom is spending the night in jail. In NJ, it would NOT be ok to just send the kid home with the neighbor. Background checks would have to be done on every adult in her home. The home would have to be physically in person checked by a social worker to make sure itis safe, meets license-able standards, that there is a safe bedroom for the child to sleep in with his own bed, the neighbor would have to agree to go through foster parent training and licensure. It looks like DHS here is trying not to take the responsibility. They don't want it to be their official placement. They want it to be the mother making arrangements for her own child.
Props to the woman in the red!!! Her motherly instinct kicked in and went straight to protecting that child! Even the kid trusted her more than the cops!
Yeah but it's just being human. I'm not a mother nor have I ever wanted to be one but I'd have done the exact same thing. A woman doesn't have to have "motherly instincts" in order to be a decent person. I don't hear people saying that the guy has "fatherly instincts". Maybe they're both just nice, normal people. We need to raise the bar when just saving a kid from being beaten is somehow being a hero. It's not.
@@gaylebynumcardosa7034I agree that it is a normal human instinct for some to step up and save others. And that is not new, history shows that people allow this kind of behaviour as ''It was none of my business'' far too often.
Shout out to Danesha. She came immediately to help and take care of the kid. She knows how difficult the situation would be but still showed up anyway. She seems like a great person.
The girl in the red dress in the first video is an actual queen what got me was when she said “for that little kid for him I most definitely will” like what a angel
The way she IMMEDIATELY stepped in as soon as Regina threw that poor kid made me happy; so many children are abused and need a respectable adult like her and her man did! They stood up for a child who could not stand up for themselves and I have so much respect for both of them. ❤
The first lady had it right. If she does that to him in public, imagine what she does to him in private. No matter what, you don't pick a child up by the neck. She should never be trusted with a child, and if he has "workers" they should all be fired because they're not doing their job and reporting. Wow, being thrown down , but not injured, doesn't warrant removal from the home. What kind of laws do we have in this country that protect our kids??? And this kid has obviously been through this before. My heart breaks for this little boy. ZERO sympathy for the mom. And a HUGE KUDOS for the couple who defended that child. He is definitely difficult.
I can speak on Iowa's DHS office from personal experience. I was a ward of the state, thrown away into their custody when I was 9. My first worker was utterly useless AF, and would drink coffee with my abuser while ignoring me completely. Family court was equally useless, as they took recommendations from DHS as gospel, even when workers were lying, corrupt, or working from a personal bias with nothing resembling evidence of wrongdoing. I was placed back in that abusive house repeatedly when I wasn't being shuttled off to other facilities to be warehoused or "fixed" by so-called child psychology experts. I was pumped full of prescription drugs like some experimental rat for nine years, which wreaked merry havoc with my brain chemistry and physical health. Fast forward to today. DHS office is still utterly useless. My local office refuses to answer their phones, the state office has their phone system set up to reject anybody dumb enough to try calling them, and getting information from some of the horrible people working at these offices is like pulling crocodile teeth with a pair of marshmallows. I personally witnessed a guy who was begging for help from a front desk worker, telling her how he had filed all his paperwork on time yet was still removed from his prescription assistance. He informed the worker without his medication he would die, and he even had paperwork proving that claim, yet all the worker said was, "That's not my problem." That poor boy Brenden has no chance.
He does seem to be a very difficult child, but look how much patience and kindness Donesha showed him. None of the ways that psycho ‘mother’ dealt with his behavior was going to work. I have a child with ADHD and ODD and it pissed me off to no end to watch that pos use his ADHD as an excuse to abuse him and I can guarantee you that none of those methods she tried (yelling and cussing at him from across the store and then threatening him with the police… no wonder he didn’t wanna go with them) were taught to her by any professional. She has no idea how to manage any of his behaviors… or she’s just too lazy to bother trying to do things properly.
I've witnessed the same thing once. I was getting groceries for my mother, waiting for my turn, suddenly we heard little girls crying, their dad screaming as loud as he was capable of. He was pulling one by the air and beating the other one who was laying on the flood. They we're probably around 5 ou 6 years old. All the staff came to the rescue but he managed to get out with his daughters quicker. They followed him while calling the cops, giving them his licence plate. I really hope they found him, because if he was capable of that in a public place, it was 100% worse at home.
It's actually really nice to see a community come together to help that kid and deal with this difficult situation. Too often stuff like this can get ignored, and inaction allows things to get much worse. I have a lot of respect for those who stepped up and did the right thing. These are some good people, and I wish them and the kid the best.
"you don't understand, he has adhd" oh thank god, for a second I was concerned she was beating someone without a mental disability, glad that's cleared up
The way she goes on about "I just want my son" and then "it's fine if you want to put him in foster care." She gives zero f***s about her son. She just doesn't want to go to jail.
Yeah damn she made it so clear. It's all demands and anger in the store but cool negotiations in the car. She wanted her son back because she thought she could maybe bail and lay low.
The woman in the red and her fiancé did an amazing job. They were checked out and ready to leave but went back and checked on Brendin. Good on this whole community for standing up for that child
Yeah, she’s “used to” overpowering that innocent little child in her care ALL THE TIME at home. She messed up bringing that behavior into public where other people could see and respond. What a mixed blessing, so sad that the kid is dealing with this every day but finally he’s vindicated by all this footage of the abuse. And if he really IS on the spectrum like she said, he would have even more difficulty than the average child speaking out and asking for help…
She's not well herself, definitely got some screws loose. There is some evilness going on there. That poor child of what he has gone through up until his age now. This was not a one time deal. Probably been abused from birth.
I hate how ever parent does that if their child has a mental disability/disorder. As an autistic person it’s so frustrating and ableist that they always excuse that
The one thing that’s annoying me is the people standing around just to record the chaos and all the kids in the store. No one thought to remove them from the chaos???
This man in the white cap and sunglasses and lady in the red track suit are real life heroes. Watching people naturally react like they did gives me faith in humanity.
Did you see the news interview with that one? The account given was something like "I said to her 'unhand him!'" - it's very dramatic, like Shakespeare😂
I love that that girl in the red dress (and her fiancé) said “for him I will” go to court to press charges. Standing up for the innocent is what we need to do as a society. ❤
The way she uses her son's diagnosis as an excuse to abuse him.. nobody has ever benefited from being slammed on the ground, lady, diagnosis or not. Also, the sentence "Brendin has a habit of making things worse" is just.. say you never take accountability for your own actions without saying it.. This lady needs to be checked herself
I let my dad move in with me. He started causing chaos and destroying things. He used my PTSD diagnosis from the stupid war as an excuse to abuse me. Crazy how people will refuse to look at any evidence. You MUST be the one who is wrong. He's your dad. He's always right, you're always wrong. Have to keep the delusion alive! It's a conspiracy theory to say someone who has gotten a women pregnant could ever do any wrong.
@@chilloften she’s playing a game of pure projection and blame. Why is she surprised that he throws tantrums when she has literally never modeled anything better? Guess what?! Kids learn through observation. The problem is her.
@@elizabethzacharias1757also, as an autistic- if I had to exist in Stroad Sensory Hell, USA, with that neanderthal for a mother, I wager I'd probably have my fair share of meltdowns too...
For that person who’s pressing charges and vowed to testify with, “Yeah, for him? I most definitely will”.. THANK YOU. We need more people like this. We need community.
Well, it turns out that there's an evil community out there. We can do all we can, but without support from the District Attorneys on charging perps without negotiating a lower charge, and a powerful judgement from the judges who currently capitulate to lower sentences to make the charges stick easier. It's time for America to "Nut Up Or Shut Up."
Watching videos like these with these innocent, confused and upset babies break my heart. That beast is a troll and had hurt this poor boy systematically, I bet!!! I can see the still wanting her because she abused him so much he felt attached still. Breaks my fn heart.
Thats typically what people like her do, the fact even her one supposed friend was mortified at her treatment shows that obviously she doesn't do so when the workers are with her. Even then its obvious that the son likely doesn't even know that she is hitting and abusing him, so he likely never mentions it to the workers.
I am autistic and have adhd (plus other conditions). I know we can be difficult children to raise, but if you're not prepared to be a parent to a neurodivergent child, you're not ready to be a parent period. Kids are difficult, unreasonable, loud and emotional no matter what.
The entire group of people protecting the child and cooperating with law enforcement for the child... they are an amazing group of people and a blessing to their community.
That man saying "You ain't going to disrespect a child in front of me" And "You touch her,you touch me"(prolly his wife or girlfriend) IS THE MOST GREEN FLAG ON EARTH. If he decides to have kids he is going to be a great father and partner.
if i’m not mistaken it looks like him and his partner do have a few kids together in the footage? which is sweet he seems like what a real father. none of that bullshit abuse.
"The abuse of a child is the business of anyone who knows about it."
Well done, community.
Amen.
Absolutely it is. She has no right to put her hands on anyone including her son.
Yes! I’m so thankful the couple spoke up! So many people don’t
Can you imagine what she was doing to him behind closed doors 😢
@user-jk8sh2zm3l Yes it is an abuse, if it is an abuse when done to an adult, it is absolutely the same when it comes to children. I am sure you are not aware of the statistics, so here they are, children that are physically hit are incredibly more likely to:
1) suffer learning disability
2) in teen years develop substance addiction (due to lowering of neuro receptors)
3) in teen years are more likely to develop aggression/depression
4) have harder time concentrating, which considering that the child has ADHD, she is making the condition worse not better.
It is sad that our justice system allows such people to continue destroying child's futures.
That woman who stepped in to help, pressed charges, stayed with the kid and helped get him into the police car, she is a saint. God bless that woman.
I got a tear in my eye when she put herself between the “mother” and the kid.

As someone with a mom who was unfortunately pretty similar in some regards even if my story was also quite different than this little boy's... as an adult I still would be pretty scared of a person this chaotically yelling in public. But I still would do what I could to protect a little boy especially with the support of other adult friends or family or kind strangers also on my side in the situation. One on one n it would be hard to know how far I'd go before I had police backup though. I might be too scared to choose a 1 on 1 confrontation with that lady.
Americans mind set
100% promise she has him on disability and she lives off the checks.
tbh alot of parents do that including my own mother but technically they cant do anything because its supposed to cover things in the household not just the child
Oh absolutely. There's SO many "autism moms" that act like theyre a saint because they do the bare minimum or even less
Too common and no real oversight....broken system.
Yeah they're probably living it up on the $600 a month. I want to know their secret in that case because I'm autistic and every time I've applied for ssdi they're like "oh you can get a job that will work with your autism" but then they never have any suggestions for what job that is.
As a disabled Veteran who had to actually PAY an attorney to get disability, PLEASE don’t get me started on this!!!
Its so sweet that the kids of the adults that stopped the mother are all sitting around the little boy and making him feel protected
That's cause they have great parents which this child so desperately needs.

@@peggypasson8794 as an Iowan, I’ve discovered it’s most likely because the school systems do NOTHING about the bullying, harassment, and mistreatment, causing the kids to snap and say “this isn’t going to happen in front of me again.” I am one of these kids, my highschool, commonly known as su!c!de high because of this problem, does nothing but put up posters. I’ve told my school that the next time a bully goes unchecked around me or my friends I’M handling it MYSELF and guess what? They started doing something. Only two three years of getting on good terms with the principals and getting good grades before they decided to say ”we don’t want this kid to get in trouble, this is a good kid with potential” and actually start acting (and even taking my advice of harsher punishments like moving the bully to another class and after school detention instead of in school detention getting them out of class.

😢😢😢😢💔
ranting alone in the police car, she goes, “Brendon always has a way of making things worse!” in the most blame-shifting tone, you can definitely tell it’s her normal cope and defense mechanism. sick, and sad
Her saying “see, I’m strong.” While lifting him up over the fence was one of the most wholesome things I’ve seen in a while😭 14:36
I said that too. It broke my heart to see a child run to a stranger. Ive always been this way with abused kids in public. Caught a lot of slack for it. But do the right thing.
@@debdanton2295 underwear???? it’s definitely a bodysuit - most commonly worn alone, for fitness, fashion, or comfort purposes
Him feeling comfortable enough to be held and carried by the absolutely wonderful woman in the red dress speaks volumes because autistic children usually have issues with being touched, especially by strangers. Hell, even autistic adults often have issues with being touched by strangers, myself being one of them. Especially throwing PTSD into the mix which poor Brandin undoubtedly has. This woman presented herself so openly and kindly and protectively that those boundaries stopped existing for just a moment. She's the kind of person every kid who's being abused deserves to run into. Real life superhero.
ADHD not PTSD :)
Absolutely but it’s learned behavior. My daughter did not like being touched ( hugs) and at 15 she is ok with it. I give her space to unwind after the school day and she appears to be happy
@sheilaboston7051 People can have both and coming from a situation like this would definitely leave him with some deep traumas that would most likely constitute a PTSD diagnosis
@@netheriteknives9882 it’s also worth noting that some autistic people tend to get attached to a particular person or thing. His safe space or safe person. And his safe person at the moment is the lady in the red dress
@@sheilaboston7051 With a mother like this, this child ABSOLUTELY has some form of CPTSD
The way he asks "Are you taking my mom to jail?" with concern, breaks my heart. Children are loyal, even towards undeserving parents. It's heartbreaking.
When you put it that way... Dang... That hits me in the gut... When he said that, I was like we "whew"... but then you put it that way and it broke my heart
same with people who beat innocent dogs and they just hang in there no matter what too.
It's because they have nothing else, they have no one else to turn to.
I saw a social worker discussing how she observed in her experience that the child who clings to and protects the parent the most usually are the most abused, that behavior comes from them wanting to be loved and accepted by the abusive parent. Hungry for love
@@ljl8764 I have a friend who along with his wife, have fostered several children, due in part to their inability to have their own. He & his wife are so gentle & kind, people you'd trust with anything from fine china to plutonium. Just calm, pleasant, generous people. I spoke with him about how the child they've had for years now is doing - and this kid was a handful, always getting kicked out of school, etc. He's doing ok, but barely - and I heard my friend say for the first time ever & hopefully the last time, that given the opportunity, he would "mouse drag to select all the text, then hit backspace" the kid's bio-parents. Pardon my metaphor - but he wasn't speaking metaphorically. The more love these kids get, the vulnerability goes against what's now instinct. Love isn't enough.
That kid was pretty poorly behaved. Dare I say bad.
That child’s problem is NOT ADHD. His problem is that he lives with a mentally ill and abusive mother who should have lost custody of her son a long time ago!
Thank you!!! Everyone still saying “he’s difficult, has ‘something’ going on clearly” etc etc.
It’s called trauma. Get that child in therapy, and love on him, and give him all the patience and support he never had and I guarantee he will transform. I’m not saying he doesn’t have ADHD, but you can’t see it here. I don’t know any child who wouldn’t act like him dealing with that as a mother.
Even at the hospital, he needs someone to sit with him and chat and give him attention. He is clearly acting out because he’s been through it and wants someone to pay attention to him. I feel for him, and I bet if red dress woman who was with him at the gas station was there, she could manage him. When he was there with her kids he sat quietly with all the chaos going on. Because he was being cared for.
Absolutely!
Time and time again ignorant abusive people think they can beat mental illness out of a child whiles they're the ones making everything 100 times worse. She's all memememe and the poor kid is this and that. Poor kid doesn't stand a chance with that woman. Clearly "mom" never wanted the poor kid and he will think thats his fault. That's how he's feeling. I know from experience
That mom's probably got an undiagnosed processing disability, too. I wonder if she'd make better choices if she was more aware of her own frustration. That quickness to anger could be bpd or a bpd like trait of asd.
I am aware of my quickness to anger and frustration that swells when things are not perfect. I take my autistic behind away from a situation to calm down and walk or smoke it off. She could probably get use from walking that anger off. Getting the blood flowing helps unblock that mind.
She could be npd, though. If the dad passed the disability genetically, he might have been manipulated and easily controlled by a npd partner. That gaslighting she attempts is familiar to red flags I've dated.
ADHD can develop as a response to trauma, she made the poor boy so afraid and frightened all the time his brain developed an extreme coping mechanism
"If she's doing that to him in public, imagine what she's doing to him in private."
My thoughts exactly.
I’m worried he is going to get it after all this settles
Scary to think about.
@@andythomas9564 Thank god the cameras were in decent quality and audio, something tells me the father is no longer in the picture because of this.
That's the line that made my wife and I look at each other, hard.
As soon as she said to the officer in the back of the car "He's due for his medication when we get back home" remained me of the thriller movie "Run" where a young girl named Chloe Sherman is made to believe that she is extremely sick by her mother and take's pills then aren't meant for her.
You can tell from the fact she's just screaming "I want my kid, give me my son" over and over she just sees him as something she owns. That kid is just property to her. So gross.
I feel like her behavior explains exactly his, she acts just like him the only difference she's a grown up and he's just a kid raised by a terrible and uneducated mother. She throws a tantrum when she doesnt get what she wants, disrespects and questions authority all the time, she literally acts like an infant whose parents dont care to educate
I think she is just hysterical. There's more than what we see here. She acted obviously were horrible and abusive by throwing him to the ground, but it seems like she's having a panic attack. That's why she repeats the same thing over and over again. We can see she loves him when she's in the back of the car and her child comes to her.
Did some quick research, saw a report saying she was charged with child endangerment and abuse and lost custody of BOTH of her kids. God bless the two who stepped in. If you noticed they had a kid of their own, and stepped in to protect a child that wasn’t there.

@@mudderjen abortion is a medical procedure that has nothing to do with this situation. living breathing children are different than clumps of cells.
Abortion is a selfless and kind act. It’s a medical procedure that terminates a pregnancy. Discontinuing pregnancy when you shouldn’t be having a child should be applauded. It’s a mature choice. It’s also very personal.
Maybe if this crazy abusive psycho of a woman had an abortion, a child would have been spared horrific abuse. Poor little Brenden’s soul could have been born into a different body, with different parents, with different circumstances, and could have had a beautiful life.
The reality is…The more abortion and birth control are limited…the more you’re going to see situations like this. It’s sad. Quality over quantity of life.
Not really. It's pretty common. Strangers help kids pretty reliably. If it's two adults fighting, most strangers won't get involved because they don't know what is going on, but if a parent is abusing their kid in public like this, most people will do what they can to help the kid. You'll notice it wasn't 1 person stepping up, it was most of the people in the store. And then they called other strangers (the police) to come help as well.
@@mudderjen Imagine being this crazy
DHS thinks there is no need for removal if the kid wasn't injured from the abuse?? I beg your finest pardon?!?!?!?!?
DHS and CPS sure do hate children, they literally never help them, ever.
They always wait till the kids dead to do shit.
Probably a legality.
Both my parents and i have been mandated reporters f9r a few reasons in the past and learned a lot about how cps and all that stuff works and it is heartbreaking what they will let a child go through before they remove them from a family. They will leave a kid in a home sleeping on a floor with no pillow only having a bowl of cheerios for food and if the kid isnt covered in injuries or starving to death theyll leave the kid in the home. It is heartbreaking the cruelty some kids have to go through in order to be saved from abusive homes.
Yes. Apparently it is perfectly okay for a parent to body slam their child into the ground… As long as the child doesn’t get hurt. WTF?
Dhs is so stupid. There are many kids who end up dead from a parent because DHS refused to remove them. I hope this little boy won't be one of them

If you are a loving Mom OR a Dad, you won't let anyone hurt a child, much less let it happen in the future if you have the means to stop it. Just normal kindness from normal parents. Not making it less important, but it should be natural, not exceptionnal.
@@Taking_Dawn_Archives No no of course I get it, but I know some parents who wouldn’t get involved just for the safety of them and their own kids, you know bystander effect.

@Michellehypocrisy the child has a disability. Her violence towards not only a vulnerable person but a vulnerable person who happens to be her son is disgusting.

@@ColletteKelly I love that he took her down. He seemed to be the first to step in for the child, then he followed through and protected his family while they joined him in the fight. This couple were so amazing to watch.
The little boy screaming “help help!” was heart wrenching!
if she's slamming him down in public, it can only be 10x worse at home. he needs to be taken away from her custody immediately, the kid's life is literally in danger
I agree and the fact that he is screaming "help!" From his mother proves he is terrified of her and for good reasons too 😢
The most horrifying thing (which is saying A LOT after watching this) is her words, “I’ve got a worker! And he’s taught me *how I dealt with it!* “.
Who are these workers she keeps talking about? How are these “people” the professional caretakers of children? Anyone that’s worked with that child and saw nothing wrong with how he lives NEEDS to be investigated.
Oh, that and her constantly blaming any escalation on her 9 year-old struggling with mental disorders.
Exactly
The child's "ADHD" is instead the likely trauma of his mother's abuse.
I fear for his maternal genetics as well.
@@LoriKasprzak-kc7xc That's what I was thinking the whole time, she's probably done this a lot and created all his problems.
As a PCA for special needs kids. This is unacceptable. The mother is wrong when she says that the kid always makes things worse. It is indeed her
The mom might be a little slow.
I'm autistic so I know sometimes it's hard, but I also know that an adult screaming at me will just make me more upset. So it is indeed the parent who makes things worse. I mean just like with any kid, just give him the chance to calm down instead of THROWING him.
Lady should've said "Okay Brendin we're going into the QuikTrip to buy XYZ. That's all we're getting. It should only take about 5 minutes." So they guy in there, buy XYZ, Brendin might start getting upset, so she says "Now Brendin I told you all we were gonna buy is XYZ. Why don't you take some deep breaths for me?"
I'm willing to bet that most of his behavior problems are a result of her antagonistic parenting style. When a autistic person/child gets overwhelmed the last thing you want to is upset them even more. All those threats were only making things worse.
It definitely shows she needs help as well. This is not how we treat any child, yours or not, especially a special needs child. I hope she can get counseling and treatment while serving her sentence.
yeah especially since he is a kid, he doesnt know he has an issue or problem, he is just being himself. Hopefully he gets proper care and the mother takes some ownership of her own issues. Raising a kid is rough, especially one with some mental or physical disability, but it was your choice to bring them into the world.
on behalf of every child that didn’t get to grow up because someone turned and ignored the situation, these people are some genuine heroes.
or grows up horribly scarred (mentally or physically) as well. Too many people see things but don't say anything to save the kid

@@crowmedicine3890and it sounds like she did leave a mark when they first checked him out
I mean, he definitely was hurt 😅 I guess it was too early for them to say one way or another without more information, but still
You are right! I did a DHS stint in grad school and if something like this happened, we had to go out there, not 'send an email.'
CPS/DHS apprehend kids first & ask questions later where i’m from. kids get wrongfully taken ALL. THE. TIME. this kid would’ve been in custody immediately if this happened, or at least a worker sent & care plan established. mom would not have gotten him without a long battle and trainings, etc. (even if she hadn’t gone to jail like she luckily did here. if she would’ve been released, he would’ve been home with her.. these people really did save him by intervening, recording evidence, staying there, etc etc etc.)
That man and his woman are beautiful people. Not only did he defend the little boy, he also defended his girl.
I was thinking the EXACT same thing the entire time. She protects the boy while he defends the kid AND his girl, what a power couple.
Ohhh please if that woman in the red was really worried about the kid why she ran after the fat white woman instead of attending the child that was thrown on the floor ? She didn’t even care look back or check up on him right away she put her hands on her first yea she hit the kid but hold the kid until the cops get there why put ur hands on her if ur so worried about the kid ??

i have autism and adhd and would often have meltdowns like that i public. while my mom was never that violent, she was occasionally physical when dealing with me and those memories stuck with me. i hope brendin is doing better now and he has the support he needs ❤
She acted like his treatment plan included body slams that people just didn't understand. Ma'am what? My son used to melt down everywhere that wasn't home basically because he was temperature averse and sensitive to sound and lights etc. Idk why people think hitting kids is the solution to crying. He's 15 now and does way better. My youngest is 8 and also has meltdowns and is super tall so me picking her up doesn't work so I just talk her to a safe place to have her feelings. but it only works because I'm her safe space and she trusts me enough to do that. Is it fun letting her meltdown while people stare at her in a way that breaks my heart? No. But why would I punish her for their biases?
I'm sorry you went through that. I was a 80s/90s kid so spanking was a big part of my life with emotional dysregulation/issues and I have loving parents that I'm grateful for but those memories are still valid and hard for me.
The way he was screaming for help shows this was not the first time.
honestly breaks my heart hearing that kid... god bless the girl and her fiance
I agree. I'm sure it was not the first time.... And how sad afterwards he was crying for her to hold him..... So toxic!
Alot perhaps but that's not why he's screaming, kid has problems he's just scream overall all the time we all saw that here in the video him still screaming towards the end
"HELP HELP, I DON'T WANT TO GO" that's what the kid said that broke my heart
Unfortunately won't be the last time sadly😢
I love that the other kids are just hanging with him like instant friends with kids of the same age
So wholesome
I'm glad you noticed that because I noticed it and it was a beautiful thing.
because thats how kids should be
Yeah kids that age are good in that way. I can't take my 6 year old anywhere without her making a best friend lol and the amount of kids she ends up bringing home I counted ten the other day and one of them didn't even talk so I've no clue how that worked but I just pour juice and get the snacks so what do I know.

I LOVE all those kiddos keeping him company, sitting with him, and sharing snacks. Such sweet little friends
That’s what i was thinking too, they weren’t acting like anything had happened, just sitting and keeping him company, so cute
They were so chill, so awesome
Agreed.
The fact that the first kid ran from his own mother but didn’t even hesitate to go with a complete stranger shows how much scared he is of his mom.
The fact that the child runs to a STRANGER for comfort when the police arrives told me everything I need to know.
He's nine, he's likely been taught that police are to be respected, both in children's programming and school. Autistic children are very compliant with kindly authority figures, esp those that are new to them and give off a gentle presence. They were quiet and talked to him kindly, and it still took a few tries, because he was recovering, not from a TANTRUM, but an AUTISTIC MELTDOWN.

That woman made the worst mother of all times and years
Dhs saying if he wasnt injured from the abuse doesn't justify removing him... That's why kids end up dead. That pisses me off.
Same. Ive seen it several times. The courts in this country think that being the child's mother automatically makes a woman fit to raise the child...even if the woman barely classifies as human
@@wilson120185 pisses me off too
Had my fair share with DCS (ik they are technically different) and they suck. My dad has abused me multiple times and the most they would do is send him to a zoom class. He had abused me once before I got them involved, and to no surprise he did it once after. Now, he is trying to be able to have full access to my 2 younger sisters (via divorce from my mom, through shared custody) and because he filed, I can't testify against him. Safe to say, they suck.
Usually it's not DHS making that decision it's the courts. DHS can't remove without enough cause. I used to work for DHS and the judge would have our head on a platter if we removed a child and they didn't deem it worthy enough. Often we would beg to not let a child return home without a safety plan in place but the judge would just ignore us and send the child home. Of course we would end up getting another call about them being abused again and have to retraumatize the child with another removal. People don't see the behind the scenes of DHS. It's the judge and court system who ultimately decides what children get removed or not and decides if they return home and when.
Couple years ago I had to speak with my states DHS about a report I made and was told that their goal is never to take the kids and if there is any type of Plan B , they don’t remove the kid. Example: parents are drug addicts,but if there is a relative that picks the kids up or can be called to step in to watch them while parents are getting high; that’s reason enough to NOT remove the kids.

Bless the woman in the red dress for blocking the mother, and helping police with the child, along with staying there and helping out when she had the chance to leave, AND ONTOP OF THAT manage to keep calm of her own child and the others around her.
The fact she's unbothered by her son being placed elsewhere but insists she goes home "to calm down". Says a lot about her and not in a good way
right?!? That was nuts
We call it narcissistic personality disorder.
that's also a good sign she's an addict. That's why their #1 concern is being able to go back home, TONIGHT
Tell me about it
The kid that was hugging the woman with the black shirt. She even motioned the boy to come to her, she hugged him, she reassured everything will be ok. She is more capable of being a better person and a mother. Her Empathy gives her a golden heart, hope she adopted him.

“Brenden has a habit of making everything worse” blaming her abuse on her child astonishes me. She’s talking in the police car knowing full well that she’s being recorded and wants to seem innocent. Disgusting.
You know the line between discipline and abuse really is not that thin. This woman is unhinged
The fact so many people, most of them complete strangers rallied around to save this boy is so heartwarming. They may very well have saved his life.
"Mind your business" No ma'am. There is no "My business" when children are involved. The way I'd risk jail if that happened in front of me.
lmfaao thats what kills me! this demon acts like her grabbing and slamming her son to the ground by his neck is normal and *just* her disciplining him. how she kept arguing and just repeating “give me my son” “my son *is* adhd” makes me feel like shes just not all the way there mentally? idk
You are part of the problem.
"I don't give a f*ck if you care! Put the child down!" Bro is a real one for that.
DHS should not say it doesn't meet the criteria for removal without seeing the video and knowing that mom is spending the night in jail. In NJ, it would NOT be ok to just send the kid home with the neighbor. Background checks would have to be done on every adult in her home. The home would have to be physically in person checked by a social worker to make sure itis safe, meets license-able standards, that there is a safe bedroom for the child to sleep in with his own bed, the neighbor would have to agree to go through foster parent training and licensure. It looks like DHS here is trying not to take the responsibility. They don't want it to be their official placement. They want it to be the mother making arrangements for her own child.
Props to the woman in the red!!! Her motherly instinct kicked in and went straight to protecting that child! Even the kid trusted her more than the cops!
i really think that if she went with him to the hospital he would have been calmer.
I was impressed by her partner, he really stepped up.
I agree. The child even let her pick him up so he could go with the cops. She came to that child's defense. Period.
Yeah but it's just being human. I'm not a mother nor have I ever wanted to be one but I'd have done the exact same thing. A woman doesn't have to have "motherly instincts" in order to be a decent person. I don't hear people saying that the guy has "fatherly instincts". Maybe they're both just nice, normal people. We need to raise the bar when just saving a kid from being beaten is somehow being a hero. It's not.
@@gaylebynumcardosa7034I agree that it is a normal human instinct for some to step up and save others. And that is not new, history shows that people allow this kind of behaviour as ''It was none of my business'' far too often.

@@theoldhermit2601so so soo real i actually wish them and people like them ONLY the best
Bro with the sunglases better keep her.
The first lady had it right. If she does that to him in public, imagine what she does to him in private. No matter what, you don't pick a child up by the neck. She should never be trusted with a child, and if he has "workers" they should all be fired because they're not doing their job and reporting. Wow, being thrown down , but not injured, doesn't warrant removal from the home. What kind of laws do we have in this country that protect our kids??? And this kid has obviously been through this before. My heart breaks for this little boy. ZERO sympathy for the mom. And a HUGE KUDOS for the couple who defended that child. He is definitely difficult.
They won't take the children even though they're endangered, but if they are homeschooled, yeah, they'll take your child.
Well said
I can speak on Iowa's DHS office from personal experience.
I was a ward of the state, thrown away into their custody when I was 9. My first worker was utterly useless AF, and would drink coffee with my abuser while ignoring me completely. Family court was equally useless, as they took recommendations from DHS as gospel, even when workers were lying, corrupt, or working from a personal bias with nothing resembling evidence of wrongdoing. I was placed back in that abusive house repeatedly when I wasn't being shuttled off to other facilities to be warehoused or "fixed" by so-called child psychology experts. I was pumped full of prescription drugs like some experimental rat for nine years, which wreaked merry havoc with my brain chemistry and physical health.
Fast forward to today.
DHS office is still utterly useless. My local office refuses to answer their phones, the state office has their phone system set up to reject anybody dumb enough to try calling them, and getting information from some of the horrible people working at these offices is like pulling crocodile teeth with a pair of marshmallows. I personally witnessed a guy who was begging for help from a front desk worker, telling her how he had filed all his paperwork on time yet was still removed from his prescription assistance. He informed the worker without his medication he would die, and he even had paperwork proving that claim, yet all the worker said was, "That's not my problem."
That poor boy Brenden has no chance.
He does seem to be a very difficult child, but look how much patience and kindness Donesha showed him. None of the ways that psycho ‘mother’ dealt with his behavior was going to work. I have a child with ADHD and ODD and it pissed me off to no end to watch that pos use his ADHD as an excuse to abuse him and I can guarantee you that none of those methods she tried (yelling and cussing at him from across the store and then threatening him with the police… no wonder he didn’t wanna go with them) were taught to her by any professional. She has no idea how to manage any of his behaviors… or she’s just too lazy to bother trying to do things properly.
I've witnessed the same thing once. I was getting groceries for my mother, waiting for my turn, suddenly we heard little girls crying, their dad screaming as loud as he was capable of. He was pulling one by the air and beating the other one who was laying on the flood. They we're probably around 5 ou 6 years old. All the staff came to the rescue but he managed to get out with his daughters quicker. They followed him while calling the cops, giving them his licence plate. I really hope they found him, because if he was capable of that in a public place, it was 100% worse at home.
It's actually really nice to see a community come together to help that kid and deal with this difficult situation. Too often stuff like this can get ignored, and inaction allows things to get much worse. I have a lot of respect for those who stepped up and did the right thing. These are some good people, and I wish them and the kid the best.
Good to finally see their helpful

If she is willing to abuse him in a crowded store in front of strangers, I can’t imagine the abuse that goes on behind closed door. Poor sweet baby.
Watching videos like these with these innocent, confused and upset babies break my heart. That beast is a troll and had hurt this poor boy systematically, I bet!!! I can see the still wanting her because she abused him so much he felt attached still. Breaks my fn heart.
That’s exactly what the lady in the red said. I agree with both of yall
I feel shes using her childs condition as an "excuse" to abuse him, disgusting!
She absolutely is. She's vile
Last time I saw a back that big was the defensive line of the 1985 Chicago Bears.
Thats typically what people like her do, the fact even her one supposed friend was mortified at her treatment shows that obviously she doesn't do so when the workers are with her. Even then its obvious that the son likely doesn't even know that she is hitting and abusing him, so he likely never mentions it to the workers.
I am autistic and have adhd (plus other conditions). I know we can be difficult children to raise, but if you're not prepared to be a parent to a neurodivergent child, you're not ready to be a parent period. Kids are difficult, unreasonable, loud and emotional no matter what.

Dudes t-shirt. "I love hot mom's". 😂 I gotta get me one of those
The entire group of people protecting the child and cooperating with law enforcement for the child... they are an amazing group of people and a blessing to their community.

That man saying
"You ain't going to disrespect a child in front of me"
And
"You touch her,you touch me"(prolly his wife or girlfriend) IS THE MOST GREEN FLAG ON EARTH. If he decides to have kids he is going to be a great father and partner.
baldie what are you doing here
@@chet_irl nothing.....
@@chet_irl Hey, Baldi had to get a family going at some point. Not so basic anymore.
@@turkeyman631Lmaoo
if i’m not mistaken it looks like him and his partner do have a few kids together in the footage? which is sweet he seems like what a real father. none of that bullshit abuse.
