Just the fact that the child was so injured that the store manager noticed and only then someone took action...... great job making her stand from the start Steve. I couldn't care less about her tears, only the child's.
Agreed. This story sickens me. There is no way all of that damage was accidental. What a monster!!!!! I’m so tired of seeing these POS “Mothers” on Steve’s show. Just goes to show you how COMMON this shit is!
And why, if he had broken his leg and she HEARD IT and knew about it but didn’t take him to be seen at the ER? Woman is insane.
That crazy la la land"mom"
with every stupid words she says or tries to explain is making me want to beat the hell out of her over & over😳a😡😡
Thank God for that store manager
Agreed 💯💯💯💯💪💪💪💪
My wife and I are 2 years into fertility treatment. By the time we have our first child we will have spent the best part of 20k. Then there's women like her that have the beautiful gift in the world and they don't deserve a bit of it! Disgrace
Hoping for the best for the both of you in the fertility treatment journey!
@spaceacekaitlin3032 thank you ❤️
You're so right, it's completely unfair.
All the very best to you and your wife, I hope you get the best news as soon as possible. ❤
I hope you keep adoption in mind because there are children that go through what this baby did who need loving parents that will never hurt them.
@clovermccombs8597 we do plan on that in future. I do wish to carry a child first but our future children will be adopted
She seems mentally incapable of being a true mom. She’s clearly at least neglected the baby repeatedly. She won’t acknowledge it. That is scary for that baby.
😢
She seems very mentally incapable and nowhere near mentally ready to take care of a child. All she cared ablut was protecting how she looked but just ended up looking bad regardless. Poor baby :(
@@lightskinnedbonnye4755 yes I completely agree with your observation. Poor child 💔
i weirdly wonder what pro-lifers would say about that. Its one kind of evil to do it intentionally.. its nothing but absolutely depressing when you lack the self awareness to even notice..
My oldest son when he was just learning to walk would just rage and bang his head in anger. He started looking like a unicorn. I went to his doctor and working with him we learned how to stop him. He would be taken to a soft spot when he was getting mad. Then we took away 1 thing at a time until he was down to 1 chair. We would say go to your chair. After awhile it just stopped. Yes I could have been under investigation because of it. I wasn't because I was honest and asked for help. But even if they put me under it, all that mattered was my son's safety. Accidents happen, but ignoring more than the occasional bruise is abuse!
Absolutely vile. Horrific ‘parenting’. Grateful for the store owner for speaking up for the victim child!!
TAKE THAT THAT INNOCENT BABY AWAY FROM THOSE IGNORANT PARENTS. MAY GOD PROTECT THIS INNOCENT CHILD. THE MOTHER IS SELFISH AND ALLOWED HER BABY TO SUFFER FOR MONTHS IN PAIN BECAUSE SHE WAS AFRAID THEY'D TAKE HIM AWAY. SHE'S SELFISH AND STUPID. CLEARING HER NAME WAS "ALL" SHE WAS WORRIED ABOUT. HOW SELFISH AND SELF CENTERED OF HER. AND HER CHILD WAS IN ALOT OF PAIN. I MEAN WHAT THE HELL COULD HE DO ABOUT IT? MOM'S PROTECT AND PROVIDE COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR THEIR CHILDREN. HOW SADISTIC.

Thank god the store manager saw this and took action.
That’s what I said. Jeeezzzz. This shit is crazyyyy!
This god you mention allowed these two idiots to abuse the baby for years, but guided a store manager to intervene? Strange tactics indeed from a supreme being.
Their neglect is absolutely monstrous. Those two should NEVER be allowed around children again. Hopefully that precious little one gets a family that cares about and loves him. Those two don't.
I wouldn't leave a dog or a goldfish with them
you would or you wouldnt ?????
@@azankan6734 I wouldn't, my bad typo lol.
Do u know your comment spoiled the show ?😂💀
I agree with you 100 percent and the so called young mother cannot lie very well. I can see it in her face.............
All children deserve parents but not all parents deserve children!
Couldn't say this any better❤
Too bad, but it’s true. 😢
Sad to say but very true
@@bobbiebailey9411It's been repeated in video comments a million times. It's to the point where I try to predict how many comments in before someone repeats it. It's always there without fail. Sometimes several times.
Agreed 👍
People don’t realize neglect is child abuse.
I can’t imagine the pain a baby has with these type of injuries, especially a broken leg and NO medical care. These folks are idiots.
Sorry but idiots is an understatement.I would say more like cave people mentality.
It’s extremely hard to hurt a baby like this
Same. I recently broke my hip during a grand mal seizure and I know _I_ wasn’t “running around” afterward-and I have a high pain tolerance. There’s no way a 1-yo was fine with a broken leg.
They are not idiots, they are neglectful at best and evil at worst.
They're all disgusting. No concerns for that poor baby.
Years ago, a child came in my store with her Mom, was about 5ish, and she looked horrible, dirty beyond normal and had bruises. I called the police. Later found out mom was physically abusive and Mom's bf was sexually abusing the child. Kudos to the store's staff, truly.
Kudos to you too, dear.
@@annem7806 I'm just me 😊 thank you!
@@nicolereardon8304Thank God that child came into your store. Bless you my dear.
@@dragastarr2926 you're sweet to say that. I was sexually abused as a child, so I guess kindred spirits see each other when they're meant to. She's an adult now, I hope she's ok

We need more vigilant people. It takes a village & kids deserve all of the love, patience, kindness, & grace that you can give!!
You freaking rock lady!!!!!
Big big hugs!!!

I love Steve he is saying the right words for this useless mother.
Her eyes going to the right visual correctly is saying she is such a liar.
@@quanna8088lying about what?
@@quanna8088lying about what?☠️ she told the truth
she needs offered help
She does not deserve to be a mother at all . I feel sorry for the little guy
After every different injury she named, there was a different excuse given. All babies & toddlers are so damn precious. I'll never understand how anyone hurts or even neglects an innocent child. 💔
Same way your politicians and pharmaceutical industries kill you for profit, happens every day, been happening for some centuries, wake up once you're done acting 😢😢
Easy for me, cousin tried to use me as a free baby sitter. Broke into my house put her kid in my spare room and left, while I was asleep. When I woke up and saw a kid I'm not responsible for, I'm not calling out of work and missing a paycheck. Texted my cousin and said "I went to work, if you don't confirm you came and got your child within the next hour, I'll call CPS". Not my kid, not my problem
@LilT2o00 should've called cps right away and dropped the kid at a hospital, fire station, or cop shop on the way to work. You are a terrible human being, no wonder your cousin is a piece of shit. Sounds like it runs in the family. The kid could kill themselves alone at your place, and how tf is cps going to get in to take the kid if the door is locked? Smdh. Trash all around.
well i feel sorry for this child to obviously the mother nor you care for the baby, it's still your blood. @@LilT2o00
@@LilT2o00Although i support this, it's completely irrelevant to this entire video and comment. we're talking about abuse and you're on about leaving you cousin's child at your home. other people would've tossed that child in a dumpster, but yes good for you! and everyone stood up in applause
edit:grammar mistakes :p
The size difference in the thumbnail is crazzzyy
😂 yes I thought it was a kid
Steve look like shaq compared to her
They want us to be like, "Oh, Xerxes (Steve) is going to DESTROY her.."
What a SELFISH and irresponsible mother.
One of the worst mothers ever on this show
*Most mothers these days* she’s more evil than Ppl think! “I know it” I need updates on this? “I’m a victim hag” I would fly to the USA immediately if someone payed$ me&id easily beat these pr!cx 2 a pulp happily
The mother's story about how her son got black eyes and bite marks is total BS! And instead of being honest and taking accountability, she uses HER past (Which has nothing to do with her innocent son) and a bunch of other excuses to try to justify her selfish actions and choices. I don't give a damn if she passed her lie detector test. She still neglected her son. And the fact that she's not looking up at Steve nor saying anything when he's calling her out says it all! She's narcissistic AF! Steve's absolutely right! She doesn't deserve to be a mother.
Hopefully, the grandmother can be there for the boy. The question is, how will he react when he finds out about his mother? It's going to be difficult.
@sd_justice_duty9564 Whether they tell him when he gets older or not, it will most DEFINITELY traumatize him. That for sure.
And the better question is: WHO did it? Who abused and caused bite marks and black eyes to that innocent boy? Me personally, I feel like the mom and her boyfriend know who's responsible for the abuse. And the mom was just saying all those BS excuses to try to cover up their wrongdoing.
@@jonathansmith8672 I see, you make a good point on this. Hopefully, the person responsible for the abuse, pays the price.
They should've asked them if they were covering up for anyone. I'd bet my ass they'd fail
@@wendya.presley7316 People who abuse kids will try their best to hide the marks or choose areas easily covered. I believe its just pure neglect from somebody ill prepared to care for a child. Just listen to her. She doesn't come across as the brightest bulb. Who beats a kid that badly and strolls into Wal-Mart for all to see what you have done? They both PASSED the polygraph but for some reason people only believe the results if the person fails! People have gone YEARS with broken necks/backs not knowing they were one minor accident away from being paralyzed because nothing seemed wrong. This needs more investigating before all the jumping to conclusions!
I have a very hyperactive 6 year old boy with autism and ADHD. He is constantly running and jumping everywhere and climbing up onto anything and everything. He has no sense of danger. He is always just going and going. Over the years, he has got many bruises, mostly on his legs. Sometimes I feel like a broken record telling him to stop climbing or slow down over and over. But if I ever for a second thought he was seriously injured I would absolutely take him to a doctor. I can not imagine neglecting a child with a broken leg like this. Then again I also live in Canada where health care is free. I hope worrying about the cost of a doctor wasn't part of why she didn't take him.
Bro same but mine does. Not. Fucking. Listen. Can't hear a word until I mention "LOL Surprise" or some shit. She'll be barrel-assing it to the rock ledge with me running behind her like stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Get tf back here. Eventually yelling in my man voice, praying the neighbors know me at least enough to know I'm not running a beating factory. I don't sit down all day long, if I did she would be jumping on the hot stove with scissors. She's gonna grow up to teach bad guys how to be a terrori$t.
Maybe the us Healthcare would be free AND NOT insanely unaffordable IF WE MADE the equipment n medicine HERE and not let China scalp us to death
Or heck ask Canada or Mexico since they will make medicine for cheap
Like seriously it'll cost 300 for a checkup n 5 grand for a simple xray or mri
And basic dental care costs like 2 grand a visit n im talking costs in the rustbelt not California
@nautgamingnautgaming9949 you can't blame China or Canada for making the prices of Healthcare insane for you. The insane price increases are solely the greed of the American economy. The greed of the insurance companies, the greed of the pharmaceutical companies, and the greed of big business and politicians. The fair pricing that other countries charge does not cause the insane price hikes implemented on absolutely everything. That is like saying "Canada charged us $0.10 per pill to make this medication so to make enough money we have to charge $150.00, seems reasonable and is all Canada's fault." That's ridiculous and ya'll know it but are too stuck in the ass kissing of big business to demand change.
Duuude babies have no will to live 😂
I was about to say this ! I know when my boys are seriously hurt !
What a bunch of neglectful hillbillies 🤨. Thank you Steve for giving them a reality check 🙄 I hope the baby is now safe and cared for properly.
I have a 1 and a half year old son and I cannot fucking imagine being neglectful to him like this. 2 black eyes, a fucking broken leg, a dog bite?! Absolutely insane
For real and not getting a one year old the obvious help they need is sickening
Yes & what's more insane is the mother sees all the injuries and DOES NOTHING. She's covering 4 that family member. They should've asked that on the test.
And she tried to say he bit himself until Steve pressed her on the issue. Shameful.
I have a 4 yr old wild child ...she popped her elbow...(very common injury) and I flipped out immediately took her in and it just had to be slightly adjusted I'm crying freaking out.... worried it's broken.... I could never dismiss an injury...aside a small bruise or scratch...especially if I didn't see it happen.
Being a mum & a grandmother I CAN’T begin to comprehend how a child sustains such terrible injuries in the first place let alone be ignored & untreated by the so called ‘mother!’ Smdh🤬😤This poor wee boy!😢
My question is, how do you just go out shopping with your child looking like that? Like no one would notice. I get it, she may be on the spectrum, but the fact the both of them were just out enjoying life is heartbreaking
Thank god they did🙏 thank god they went Out that day!
Bravo 👏🏾 👏🏾 to the manager. They saved a life by reacting the way they did.
how horrific. the store owner is an angel, all babies need and deserve a voice.
“That’s what happens when children have children!” BINGO STEVE!
The mere fact she didn't want to take him to the doctors because she was afraid cps would be involved, proves she hiding the truth.
Wow. That store manager was heaven sent! Who knows what else this child would be going through while mom just shrugged her shoulders and twiddled her thumbs. Being neglectful is not by any means better than being abusive. She came to clear her name, but did she really? Steve is right, at this moment she has no business being a mother.
Yeah but then Steve blames people when they don’t try to get their kids back or do more too. It’s a lose lose battle to please him. Clearing her name is necessary to get her baby back, if she didn’t try she’d be guilty and she’d seem like she didn’t want her child. Did he expect her to just remain silent and accept blame or do what she’s got to do to get back her child she didn’t even abuse. She can learn from this and never repeat it.
@@seajay2157 she is guilty of neglect, and this lie detector doesn't do anything. She has to make the changes to get her child back and that's it.
@@Jewlii123 really it sounds like you just want a reason to complain and don't want to admit that @seajay2157 is right. you do realize she could be doing NOTHING AT ALL to get her children back or clear her name or try to do better right?? like MANY MANY MANY parents do on this show?? also people have to start SOMEwhere with improving themselves, and yeah i agree she isn't doing her best here, but if people like you knock people like her down every step of the way, they aren't going to see the point in it and not improve anyway; you catch a lot more flies with honey than you do with vinegar. and, lastly, as someone who came from a neglectful and abusive family, the fact this woman is trying and willing to change to be a more attentive mother makes all the difference. time will only tell if she is willing to do that, but i'd much rather give this woman the chance to change than ridicule her in the youtube comments just to make myself feel better.
@@SloppyxJoe k
@@SloppyxJoeso you would let a woman like her watch over your kids?
Thank you, Steve for not letting her get away with this. Hearing her say, "I told you, I told you," as if she actually proved something just didn't sit right with me. I'm so grateful to that manager for standing up for that baby. We need to have a society where we say something and don't just turn our heads to child abuse. CHILD ABUSE IS ALWAYS YOUR BUSINESS.
Some guests aren't truly innocent due to poor decisions and bad attitudes. It would be nice for the manager to appear on the show and receive recognition.
She came to the show to clear her name, but didn't even take her son to the hospital for his injuries. She's neglectful and should be locked up
She is using double standards, being a hypocrite, or both.
They are horrible, neglectful parents. They cared more about how they were being perceived rather than getting help for their child. That poor baby. Alex was tripping over her words and could barely talk. She looked like a scared rabbit.
All children deserve parents not all parents deserve children
I hope the grandmother gets full custody of her grandson 🙏
F283ck off with this quote to gonder likes. JESUS
And yet people rag on those who are childfree.
@@ShiningAndStarstruckwtf? Does this have anything to do with the show
God, no, this child needs a new family
Even if they’re all accidental injuries, she failed to be an attentive parent. She failed to take care of him. Running on a broken leg? Not a chance
How amazing that store manager took action. Too many people report nothing or only report false accusations.
Did Cory pour red wine on his head?
WTF is going on there??? It's mildly disturbing.
I have 3 children. A 12yo, 5yo, and 1yo... NONE of them have ever had ANY injuries anywhere close to this poor babies 😢 God help and heal this litte boy 🙏🏻
I am currently pregnant with my 7th child and I have never neglected or abused any of my children and I definitely would never let anyone hurt my kids. Her excuses were complete bullshit
Shoot! My daughter had all of these & then some by the time she was 5. She's a rough & tough girl even now @ 9 but luckily she's settling down some it seems. She definitely keeps us on our toes.
& then there's my son who has barely even had a scratch until he turned 11 then got a black eye. Lol
What Steve said about her was so true. My Mom and talked about this one day. Some women who don't want to be in a relationship go out, party, get drunk, have sex, and get pregnant. And then the child suffers for their neglect. 💔 Also, kudos to the store manager for calling CPS! 👏🏻
I'm surprised the baby is still alive. That manager saved his life
Alex should've taken her son to the hospital immediately if she noticed that he was severely bruised and had a broken leg. She may not have abused her son, but she made things worse.
Steve is epic in his takedown of these selfish and immature parents.
I wish the best for Grandma and healing for the little boy.
More like very selfish and immature parents.
In just his first year of life....The poor boy isn't unfortunate, he's lucky. Lucky it didn't have to last a lot longer!
Yeah the story wasn’t making sense , based on how Alex was telling it . And how would folks at the store noticed all those bruises , but the mother didn’t ?
Or glasses..sorry/not sorry
No & I could tell where she was lying
Na, she said she knew.
“I didn’t cause the injuries” but you knew about them and didn’t seek help… children tend to run and play even when they’re sick or injured, they’re very resilient. Which is how I know little man here will be okay, as long as he’s kept away from mom and boyfriend. I try not to mom shame, but it’s hard as a mother cause like my kiddo is 7 and I can’t imagine her having even half these injuries and not seeking help.
What a pos, I have two kids, my first at barely 17, yeah my kids got lil booboos here and there, but NOTHING like this watch your fricking kids! Unbelievable, selfish, neglectful, disgusting beyond my comprehension… my heart is broken for the little guy…. Wtf
Cory gives me the shivers and not in a good way. This little girl strikes me as someone who has low self esteem. She will protect Cory so she doesn’t lose him. So sad!😢😢
It's because he's a narcissist and you're exactly right! This is coming from someone who personally knows him. Thankfully he's locked up and won't be out for about 10 or more years. Alex is also locked up on child neglect charges
Neglect is abuse. She admitted to neglecting her son. No matter what the test said, she IS an abuser too.
What kind of mother and father would be so cruel to their own child?
Very Bad, neglect parents
The father has never been in the picture period. That's her child. Her responsibility. The family could have called, the boyfriend could have, that's their neglectful behavior as adults. She's mom though. She SHOULD have done SOMETHING. Accidents or not, the leg should have been looked into and gotten help for. I understand it was a fracture and not broken but I've had a hairline fracture and it hurt so fuckin bad. He had to have been inconsolable when this happened.
Shout out to that store manager. You saved that baby’s life by just saying something
When he said “1 year old” my blood ran cold. I have a 4 and 3 year old who never even so much as bruised themselves until 3. Shattered
I have so many questions…. I’ll just say I hope neither of them have custody of this child.
I hope the Grandma is able to take the baby and not allow mom near him without supervision!! That way he's at least with someone he knows!!! Ugh poor baby!!! Her neglect pisses me off!!😢😒🤢🤬
I’m sorry but her being young is not an excuse I had 2 at 20 and did everything in my power to protect them and raise them with love and kindness. This is beyond disgusting to have a child with a broken leg and do nothing It’s just as bad as being the abuser.
Twice she said she didn’t hurt the child and that’s why she didn’t take the baby to the doctor. It’s possible that this child has had a lifelong history of injury and that’s why they’ve stopped ‘seeing’ any injury. It’s also possible this child has a bleeding disorder or maybe even ‘Brittle Bone’ disease. Something is clearly wrong here. I hope that the child is now proper assessed and cared for.
I would also like to say a HUGE WELL DONE to the person who called the police, they are a hero and saved the lil ones life.. I wish more ppl were like that person. Me i would rather make the call that was no needed than not to call and then you see in the paper or news that that child and/or adult has been killed..
This is just a crazy situation. I probably took mine to the Dr more than they needed for everything that caused me concern.
I just wanted to yell the whole time, "It's not about your innocence or your fears or your ego! It's about the little life you brought into the world! You're not your #1 priority anymore!" Steve's comments at the end were cathartic to hear, at the very least. Wishing the best for that baby.
Did she really admit that they had no idea how a 1 year old baby broke his leg and didn't know it was broken? I would have been taking that baby to the hospital to see what happened! You should be more conserned for that baby then what would would happen by taking the baby to the hospital. I hope the grandma fights to get custody of that little boy and I hope she keeps her daughter away from him!
This is truly HEARTBREAKING AND DISGUSTING. 💔 while hearing his cruel injuries I’m sitting here thinking he’s maybe a 10 year old but the fact that that little boy has only been on this Earth for a year IS BEYOND GUTWRENCHING. My heart dropped as soon as I hear “ a 1 year old” .. like whaaatttttt!!!! I haven’t even watched the full video and my stomach is already turning. I FEEL FOR THAT LITTLE BOY & whether he’s 10 or 1 or whether they did it or not.. they clearly don’t care whatsoever for the safety, health, care, love, and well-being for the child they brought into this world except for his grandma. IF THEYRE NOT GONNA CARE ABOUT THE CHILDREN THEY BRING INTO THE WORLD.. DONT BE A MFKN PARENT AND DONT LIE DOWN AND MAKE BABIES TOGETHER IF YOU AINT GONNA STEP UP AND AT LEAST DO THE BARE MINIMUM AND NOT HURT YOUR CHILDREN IN ANY TYPE OF WAY. PERIOD. I NEEDED TO RANT CUZ THIS HAS ME MFKN HEATEDDDD RN.
She got me when she described seeing him in the hospital and knowing she failed him. Broke me.
No excuse of course.
Dude got a legit Hapsburg jaw 😮
How the F didn’t the mom take him to the ER- that’s bull, and she doesn’t need ANY KIDS EVER AGAIN
I can't imagine a broken leg that baby must have been unconsolable
Steve hit the nail in the head like for real
True what Steve said she doesn't deserve to be a mother my heart pains for that baby
Sadly working in customer facing roles having to report things is common.
I myself have had to call the police when developing photos - piece of scum admitted SHE didn’t know we checked them for quality.
The stuff people are exposed to just doing their jobs is horrific.
I hope the manager who called the police is getting lots of support and professional help.
I’m actually very shocked that they both passed.
Sometimes, there are some guests who are not truly innocent even when they pass their lie detector test. The reasons are poor choices and bad attitudes.
Same. Her holding her head down for the results, I'd say she knows something.
@@julieannthegreedyvegan8420 oh yes I believe that too. Or she believed what Steve was saying that she shouldn’t be a mother.
@@sd_justice_duty9564 yes very true. This situation was loaded with bad decisions.
There must come an really investigation ………😴🙏
I'll never forget when my son walked behind his cousins playing baseball, he walked right behind his cousin who was bat practicing. The stares i would get from people😢
Devastating what this child has gone through. People would kill to have kids and this woman is destroying them.
She seems to have an excuse for every injury on the child😢
I see exactly why she didn’t take him to the hospital, it’s because they automatically say the parents did it and take the child away. CPS as usual did NOTHING to find out the truth. They’re in the profitable baby business
But then someone's kids are living with Ped0 Joe and begging to leave and CPS is like "yep looks good"
I worked for DCF for 10 years. There is no "profitable" baby business. We place chidlren with foster parents then we search for family members who might be appropriate. While the children are in custody CPS pays the foster parents to care for the children. They are not making money on the kids. If a parent loses permanent custody there is no charge for the parents that adopt the child. We made sure the kids have medical insurance even after the adoption is final. When they take a child the court orders certain things must be done to help the parent get the kids back. They have to work with a socialworker and do what the court order says. They are given 12 months to do those things if the child is under 1 year old and they have 15 months if the child is older than 1 year.
@@deannarounds3295 Yeah they often end up getting placed with far worse families than they started in. The number of kids that have been killed under management of CPS is ridiculous. We just had two kids in our local area who were taken from their mother, put in the custody of strangers and were murdered by their foster parents, ages 2 and 3 years old. These parents didn’t abuse their kids and instead of finding out who did, they were simply ripped away from their family. These foster parents get paid good money and often times that’s all they care about. Why isn’t anyone finding loving homes?
Do these two realize the neglect is not an excuse for abuse. -- both are horrific. This is abuse and neglect.
Broken leg and he’s just running around happy as a camper can be?! Horrific lies! They don’t deserve kids.
steve really loves kids I wish he could live forever
Honestly same
@@lazariah._.loverxx1901 🙏🏽
She knew what was going on and tried to cover it up for her man at the expense of her child's well being..hope she never gets custody of him ever

Steve: And with that, you guys can "Get.. Off.. My.. Stage!'
Nobody in their right mind thinks a popping sound with no indication of pain is a broken bone.
Sometimes, some guests are not innocent even after they pass their lie detector tests due to poor choices and bad attitudes.
I'm with you. 😔😪
@@jonathansmith8672 Thank You!
I have seen some guests who were kicked out of the studio despite passing their own lie-detector tests.
Yup
Yep, still bad parents regardless
It's pretty odd how both people passed the test, usually under these circumstances at least one of the guardians is a lying abusive rat.
The premise of Steve's whole show is the lie detector test, both passed. His advice is you should never be a Mother get off my stage?
Alternatively the advice should have been - How about take some parenting classes and try to get your kid back?
It's probably a rare combination of the kid could just be a tad rabid and hard to control, immature parents and the injuries being blown out of proportion.
We live in a paranoid society where everyone assumes the worst and jump to conclusions very quickly.
Are you being rational? This is TH-cam, we think with our emotions!
👨🔧👩🔧👩🔧👨🔧👩🔧👨🔧👨🔧👩🔧 (pretend this angry mob has pitchforks) Lets get her!!!!
I mean there is a possibility the kid has a rare disorder called congenital insensitivity, which means the kid wouldn't feel pain. A kid or baby with that condition could break a leg and wouldn't feel it
@@dragonagegirl There could be a rare disorder as you suggested, the kid could also be hyperactive due to undiagnosed autism.
Sometimes you can have a situation where you have a combination of immature parents and a hyperactive infant where an anomalous perfect storm can occur with several injuries happening to an infant in a short period of time, it's a rarity but it can happen.
Ultimately both passed Steve's test, no photos were provided. For Steve to turn to the woman and say you shouldn't be a mother with a televised audience is extremely poor form, it's going to be doubly difficult to get that kid back now, all that Mother probably needs is parenting classes.
They passed the test because they were not being asked the right questions
Injuries blown out of proportions? The 1 year old had a broken leg and neither of these morons even took him to the doctor. Ok, so neither of them caused it but the little boy was seriously being neglected in their care.
This is why I love watching Steve Wilkos
Lol Steve. I love how you handle things. You are honest.
Damn Steve must have been having a bad day... Steve went hard on this young mother and they both passed the lie detector test about abusing the child yes they prob was accident that happened to her child but neglecting their pain and not getting them medical help
I agree. She made a mistake I’m sure she regrets more than anything but by the results it wasn’t intentional and she didn’t abuse her child and neither did the boyfriend. Her fears were correct because they removed her baby without properly investigating, children hurt themselves and seeing how she acts it wouldn’t surprise me that she’s developmentally behind and maybe her child as well.
@@seajay2157 a 1 year old can't BREAK THEIR LEG by themselves. Yes she and Corey didn't hurt the child but not only did they not take the kid to the hospital, they did nothing to find out what happened. They didn't think the child was being abused, and that's very much possible in this situation, but the child was definitely neglected in the sense that they did nothing to put a stop to the injuries. Instead Alex had an excuse for every injury and Corey's taking the heat for a situation he can walk away from.
Doesn't matter, even if there was no real intention on hurting the child, they still neglected to get their kid any medical health. A child with bad injuries is nothing to be taken lightly or turn a blind eye to.
Again, she was right to worry
@@shitneyb5562 If she knew she didn't abuse the child, she could've fought the accusations in the courtroom after the child got medical attention. So no she wasn't.
Everyone's suspect here:
Alex: She didn't take the kid to the hospital when he got injured.
Corey: Even though he's not legally responsible for the safety of the child, he chose to stay in a relationship with a young woman who wasn't ready to be a mom
Bobby: doesn't seem to have done much to help her daughter with the granchild
Corey's family: didn't do anything about the bruises
Steve: didn't tell Corey to leave the relationship.
We can't say Alex and Corey allowed the kid to be abused because they seem to genuinely not know what happened. But they failed this kid by not doing everything they could to find out the who what when where why and how, and make sure it would never happen again. They made no effort to protect this child. Anyone defending Alex because she was a teen mom or she was abused as a child is ignoring the fact that most of the time you have to be on DRUGS to behave this selfishly with your kids. She did this sober. She was clean when this happened. No drugs, no alcohol. She was clean when she made the decision to not take the kid to the doctor. To this day, no one knows where this kid is and who's raising him. Alex is a terrible mother, Corey is just a random dude who needs to both wash his hands of this situation by leaving her and grow up to be a real man in the event he has to protect his own kids, Steve needs to get with the times and Bobby needs to step up her grandma game.
That's what scares me. She did this *sober*. I could understand a little if she was baked or high off her rocker, but to look at a child, while sober, and decide to not care for the child? Truly horrific.
I can't believe the amount of pain the kid must have been in from pure neglect!
Thank god for that manager . How could the parents not realise his injuries were so bad .
I've always wanted to be a mom. I can't have my own children. When I hear stories like these, it makes me sick to know so many children have bad parents.
this one was so hard for me to watch where i couldn't get through half of it and hope she lost her kid for what she did
The Queen of denial
I love it when Steve gets disgusted with the parents and acts like that..
It’s the governments fault!! They should be making these people do parenting courses or get parenting licenses before they have children!
Amen!!
The government cannot make a mother have maternal instincts nor can the government force anyone to be a good parent
That child is her and boyfriend meal ticket and housing for next 18 years .they will take no chances of losing that attention single moms..be careful who you allow to squirt in you they may be the father of your child.
Her boyfriend isn’t the father.
@@youngtank4039 yes her current lay but lives in her section 8 housing with her
How in the hell can anyone abuse a child? When my son goes to his mom's for her every other weekend and when we did week on and week off when he was an infant and toddler, I observed very closely my son's body because I watched enough Maury and Steve Wilkos type of shows and enough reality tv shows about child abuse so I always paid attention because it was my job and duty to ensure my son is safe, healthy, and happy.
This is disgusting hope that baby is safe and doing better. Breaks my heart!!!
Ur still just as GUILTY BC U DID NOTHING !!!!!
I kinda felt her when she said I neglected and failed my son. Why is steve being such a dick? I think he wanted her to fail by the way that he was reading the test. He must be having a bad day. I'm in shock as to why he's acting like such a jerk
She deserves the shame Steve is giving her. You’re telling me even though she’s taking “accountability” in saying that she knows she fails her son makes everything better? She got the energy and motivation to get up and call the show to cover her own ass, why couldn’t she call the hospital and get him treatment?! I’ll tell you why, because she lacks the same motivation and energy for her son. She may use the excuse of fear from cps taking her baby but at this point with all the severe injuries this poor baby had that’s the last thing she should think about and putting his needs first overall.
The lady's kid had 2 black eyes and a broke leg and your feeling a type of way bc he was a jerk?!?!?! A CHILD SUFFERED BROKEN BONES WITH NO MEDICAL ATTENTION. U got some backwards thinking. What if it was YOUR CHILD. dumbest comment EVER
Don’t you dare stand up for that low life of a mother! She REFUSED to take her child in! You’re just as bad as her in this case!!
some of these people need to be talked to like that instead of being coddled. it might suck to have somebody be ticked at you and speak to a certain kind of way, but you got your child and yourself in a situation that decent human beings would frown upon. coddling and pacifying is not going to get shit through their thick skulls or their children out of hell.
Can't treat em like criminals and have high expectations. Pick one
Ridiculous they allowed the child to suffer like that.
No child or even adult just gets up and runs around on a broken leg.
She seriously wants us to believe her son broke his leg and got up and started running
Like 4 no spoilers :)
Don't read the comments til after and it won't be spoiled
Omgosh this baby. Omgosh the pain that baby has been put in so many times.. I just can't.. I had to pause this to collect myself after hearing that beautiful babies injuries... Omgosh I'm in tears... How can a parent not see the injuries and then acts like the damn victim!!? Everyone saw the bruises except the mother! Her child does not come first to her period!!
Some folks shouldn't be parents. Gross negligence. I hope they get criminally charged. She's clearly not incapable of proper care.
Her fears were correct though. Cps didn’t investigate correctly because she and her boyfriend in fact DIDNT abuse that baby. Me being in the system I feel for her. How can Steve ignore the fact that they didn’t do any harm to the baby and the mom was right to fear her child being taken away. Not only that but some children genuinely hurt themselves and it doesn’t look good on the parents. Maybe the child is autistic. He continued to tear into her even though she admits regretting not taking him to the hospital, it was a young and dumb mistake but she didn’t do anything to purposely hurt her child nor allow anyone else to do it…I feel once she said her genuine feelings and they both passed Steve should have let her know it was a dumb mistake and encourage her to do better. I’ve seen him be fat softer on people who were guilty and it doesn’t sit right with me. A lot of unnecessary comments…
Her justification for not taking the kid to the hospital made no sense. The cps thing is whatever but even if a kid has an autistic attack and spazzes out and hurts himself she could've done SOMETHING to get the wounds patched up. Everyone noticed these injuries but her and Corey. Normally you'd have to be on drugs to be this stupid with your kids, but she was SOBER!
Doesn't help she wasn't the one who got help. Bad on her part looks terrible from cps viewpoint. Should've immediately called the cops
She should have taken action when the injuries were there. She isn't a good mother if she was willing to let her kid suffer with those injuries.
@@Myron_The_Wolf again that is her biggest regret as she stated. It was a young and dumb mistake and I’m not denying that she was wrong to do it. HOWEVER Steve went in on her much more than I’ve seen in other cases that were actually intentional. Her being so young he should have yelled at her but also gave her room for IMPROVEMENT. Especially because she didn’t hurt her child nor did she allow it.
@@yodyo9445 didn’t excuse that. 🤷🏽♀️ again I said that she has room for improvement and a chance and should have an opportunity to get her child back because there’s far worse and children getting intentionally hurt out here that they don’t remove. She has a good chance of turning things around. She’s obviously learned from her mistake.
Everyone involved in this poor little angel’s life and did NOT STEP IN are GUILTY PERIOD!
