Was she expected to stay up all night? As parents, we go to sleep every night with the expectations our kids don’t leave the house. I wouldn’t hold this woman responsible.
This could become the basis of a horror/comedy movie... The title could be "Don't Fall Asleep" 😂
Yes I am confused
You should be careful, for example having the keys of cars near you in your bedroom. Halo?
I agree I think it’s just because legally the kids were in her care and this happened so it does fall on her
Yea really it's no one's fault but the older kids, definitely not the other mothers fault though so she shouldn't be expected to pay for it.
I'm confused. Are babysitters not allowed to sleep....at all? How is the plaintiff a bad guardian because she went to bed AFTER the kids went to bed?
facts hahaha
You’re either a child or your brain stopped developing before you graduated high school. That’s assuming you graduated high school 🤦🏽♀️
@@PrettyPettyKitty it’s the law not your feelings
@@Lenasevilla-yb4ei which is stupid laws, 3/4 of US laws are ridiculous, one can even sue one's neighbour if your cats stomach starts running,
@ it’s still the law nobody cares about feelings 😴🥱
Great job teaching this kid any accountability!
It’s coming
Plaintiff should have reported it to the police. The defendant’s son and the plaintiff’s son would get in trouble. That’s accountability.
@@robbymarton74 Yeah when they turn 18, they're little fantasy world will come crashing down dramatically. A honey bun takes on a whole new meaning in the joint.
Im not watching anyone elses kids after watching this.
Right
My thoughts exactly! I don't wanna not be able to sleep at night
Her kid sounds just as much of a bad butt though. 😂
It’s what happens when you assume the responsibility of taking care of minors. You’re LEGALLY responsible for their actions. If they would have burned down the house, the plaintiff is responsible, if they would have found alcohol and drank it and got alcohol poisoning-the plaintiff is responsible. The BIGGEST telling point is that the plaintiffs son is in a facility and she has prior knowledge that her son has some behavioral issues--I’m 99.9% sure he’s the one that got the keys out of the underwear drawer…then there’s the fact she didn’t hear them leave the house nor she hear the car start up.
The first problem is she wasn't watching them. She was asleep when she was supposed to be watching them. I have babysat multiple autistic children and have never once slept while I was on the job, even one time when the job went from being until 1AM to being until 7AM instead. I once started babysitting at 8AM and didn't stop until 3AM, knowing I'd need to be up at 6:30 to get my own child ready for school. I slept after the last child had been picked up and through most of the next morning while my son was at school. If you agree to babysit at night, you plan your routine accordingly.
They should split the deductible.
My exact thoughts
Exactly!! The defendants son drove and crashed!! He knows better than that
Yeah that's the most fair outcome
Judge Judy needs to put this kid in his place, because all he's going to learn is he doesn't have to be held accountable for his actions.
The plaintiffs kid was in the car too
😂😂 Umm, I don't think any teenager is worried about JJ and her stern face/comments, only adults know she is the real deal!
Exactly so she can't sleep with these big kids at her house, they're not small babies 😞
@@brandyyolidio4213I’m an adult and I don’t care about her.
@@drew6846 Him too, but given that he's in a facility and autistic, I question whether he's able to understand.
She put the keys in her underwear drawer because she didn’t trust ANY of those kids in her house; hers included.
I believe that the keys were in the bathroom like the kid said.
I believe the defendant's child. It makes no sense that she wouldn't hear people going through her room to find the keys unless they knew specifically where to look. Not once when I hosted sleepovers did I ever think to hide the car keys. So she must not have trusted someone (I suspect she didnt trust her own child).
@@carolr7823it doesn’t make sense for them to be in the bathroom I don’t know believe it
@@shannonbrice8012my husband sleeps hard as f.. everyone doesn’t sleep the same
@@shannonbrice8012I am usually a light sleeper but if I am exhausted or sick, I can sleep like the dead. I have slept through earthquakes a few times. One time I was staying in an AirBNB with a friend, and our apartment neighbors got in a screaming argument with some other guests right outside our window about 2 am because the owner had double booked. I was complaining about it the next day, an my friend hadn’t heard a thing although we had been in the same bedroom .
Judge Judy is wrong here. She's talking to this woman as if she should have stayed awake all night and this is her fault and that kid isn't being held accountable for his actions. Doesn't matter who got the keys.. this kid drove the car therefore he stole it and wrecked it. She deserves her money
She should have hid her keys better than she did
@@donte8212 She shouldnt have to hide her keys. Should she hide all the knives,scissors turn off the oven, or anything else that could harm a human being? Nah those kids are just bad.
@@SnoopVee clearly she did need to hide her keys better😂 especially if the kids are “bad” as u say. cant crash if you don’t have any keys.
My friends always slept at my house and not once did my mom stay up all night to watch us. We also knew better to steal her car key and take a joy ride, especially at 11-12yrs old
She's not wrong, it's the law. It sucks, but the plaintfiff is still responsible. Why is this so hard for you guys to understand this? If the kid died, she would be responsible. Don't watch people's sons when your troubled son that knows where you hide the keys is home, I guess.
Ridiculous! The plaintiff is supposed to assume a 12 year old is going to take her car and wreck it! Dumb! This kid should be taught a lesson!
It doesn’t matter. The kids are minors and aren’t responsible. She agreed to watch the kids, accepting responsibility, so she’s responsible for damages. That’s it. If the kid had snuck out of his house, took the plaintiff’s car keys, and then wrecked the car his mother would be responsible.
No she is trying to completely blame the defendant when her delinquent son is also responsible
She must have thought something would happen to hide the car keys.
HER KID HAS MENTAL PROBLEMS HE IS IN A FACILITY thats why she hides her keys
@@cindymaggio6537 so why is she saying the defendant's son stole the keys when her son's behavior has led her to believe she needs to hide the keys.
He needs to be held accountable for his actions !
Nah this messed up like what ??
She have to stay up all night to watch kids sleep smh ..
Exactly 💯 she has to get up every 2 hours like they require feeding and changing.
no. the issue is that she did not have her keys in a secured location and she's an alleged heavy sleeper. you need to have safeguards in place to keep kids in your home overnight.
@@GratitudeGriot And should she have removed all the knives in the home? And put gates up around the stairs? And thrown out all the bleach and cleaning products? No, because that's ridiculous. Don't get me wrong - the ruling is correct, and she would have been held liable if something worse happened, but to imply that this woman is a bad person for not hiding keys and being a heavy sleeper is asinine. By this logic, no one should be allowed to have children ever.
@@katesweeney9101shut up. You’re taking this way over board.
@@katesweeney9101 Yes, absolutely ridiculous legal sytem.
Because she fell asleep and didn’t hear anything she is a bad caretaker?
It happens when you have children you fall asleep because you are tired
Was she supposed to be awake all night? Ridiculous
These children are definitely not the easiest
And if the defendant and her are best friends and helping each other, she could have offer to pay half because her son was driving
As true as that is the responsibility of the children are still hers.
It happens and it doesn't mean that she's a bad caretaker.
But at the end of the day, she's the one who left the car keys in reach of the children. Why should the defendant have to pay? She wasn't even there.
Both parents need to take responsibility for disciplining their children. The insurance should pay for the car, and the person who was responsible for watching the children at the time of the incident is financially responsible for the deductible.
She knew she had a son who was a troublemaker ("He's AUTISTIC!") and didn't do enough to prevent him from getting into trouble.
Judge Judy failed the plaintiff in this case... She failed to hold the young boy accountable for his actions and only blamed the plaintiff . She did her best to hide the keys. It's just ridiculous 😢
Insurance won't pay for anything if someone drove the car and didn't have a driver's license and/or they're not old enough to have a driver's license. @@justcogitating
I don’t think I’ve ever disagreed with the judge so hard before what is she smoking
That’s why she’s a judge (retired judge and lawyer) and you’re not. LEGALLY speaking the plaintiff is the one who assumed the responsibility of care for the minor children. Since this happened under her watch, it’s her responsibility ACCORDING TO THE LAW. Your feelings don’t matter, legally she is responsible for what happens under her watch. Let’s say that they didn’t steal the car but instead they stole liquor from her and all 3 kids were hospitalized for alcohol poisoning…she would still be LEGALLY responsible. Same law applies. You can disagree with her but you’re wrong.
@@jobuck879 that liquor anology just makes perfect sense! Cause you hear teenagers having parties and if somone gets intoxicated and gets in car accident.....who is it gonna come back to? Where did they get the liquor? Who was supposed to be responsible and watching?
@@jobuck879 couldn't have explained it better. I was also going to add that if the boy had left HIS HOME, snuck in, stole her car keys then wrecked her car, his mom would then be responsible for not watching her own child.
This is one of the reasons why people don't like to take care,/babysit other people's children, especially if they aren't well behaved.
It's the law. It's not about what JJ thinks. She is upholding the law.
Judge Judy wildin’ sometimes.
What is the meaning of wildin?
Nope she's fallowing the law
I understand that the plaintiff would be liable if something worse happened, but to flat out say that she's not a good caretaker because she slept during the night - and perhaps is a heavy sleeper - is absurd.
Sadly ANYTHING that happens to a child under your care, you will almost always be considered liable for it. She could have had her keys guarded by pitbulls armed with semi automatic weapons surrounded by land mines and she still would have been liable.
Has JJ kids ever sneaked out the house? I fail to believe this idea that children can’t sneak into your room without you waking up lol do you know how sneaky children are?! Whew
To be fair, would you sneak out of the house if JJ was your mom? 😂
Weather or not JJs kids have ever snuck out is irrelevant.
If something happened to the kids at school, the school would be liable, if it happened at KMart, KMart would be liable etc etc. It happened at one parents house, not the other, so that parent is liable.
Besides her son sure as hell knew where her keys were and had the nerve to go in his moms room to retrieve it…and influenced the defendants son to drive.
The Plaintiff is obviously liable.
@ you’re rebutting on an issue that I didn’t address….
It's THE LAW. If you are in charge of someone's child then you are responsible for their actions. It sucks for the plaintiff, but if the kid died in her car, she's STILL responsible. If he broke her tv then she's responsible. Don't watch people's kids if they're bad then. Don't have your troubled son's troubled friend over. Don't have the keys anywhere they can find it. I don't believe they were in her underwear drawer, but if they are then they obviously knew where to look and how to get it while she was asleep. This isn't a "Judge Judy doesn't understand" thing. It's the law. End of.
@ your comment and my point don’t correlate! Stop reading to respond. Nobody said it wasn’t her responsibility! If you read and read again with the understanding, what you’re saying has ntn to do with what I said
JJ's talking like the plantiff parks her car in her bedroom.
😂😂
Judy just taught this boy he can get away with it. Smh
Well I mean she can’t stay up all night like a night watchman . They are troubled kids .
Her kid absolutely found her keys in her drawer and if he's in a facility, it's because you're unable to handle his care by yourself. If the defendants son had stolen a car before and she didn't disclose that information to the plaintiff, THEN she might have a case for being responsible. Suing for half would've been fair....but to say she's totally responsible when her kid was involved also, is nuts!
She said her child is autistic, not in a juvenile facility for crimes committed.
Just because he's autistic, doesn't mean he's stupid. Young People that are autistic can be in a home because of violence, emotional instability, etc
@merriestroscher5795 autistic children can be sent to live in facilities for a variety of reasons - a common one being because they act violent and the parents can't handle that and it's safer for other children living in the home. And if he was involved in the stealing of the keys (whether you believe plaintiff or defendants son about the location of them, he knew where to look for them) he's obviously done troubling things like this before the car incident too.
In the state I’m from the parent of the twelve year old would 100% be responsible for any damages.
That’s a great state!
I have to disagree with JJ on this one. Unless she expects the parent(s) to stay up all night, there will be a time during a slumber party when the kids will be unsupervised. Yes, the plaintiff assumed responsibility for the defendant's two children, but short of wearing her car keys on a chain around her neck, what does JJ think should have happened? A 12-year-old is more than old enough to know that grand theft auto is wrong, much less rummaging around someone's dresser drawer. He knew he was doing something wrong and did it anyway. That's on the defendant as his mother.
I don't believe that her own son wasn't involved. Also, I believe that she did leave the car keys in the bathroom.
JJ couldn't be sure which son was responsible. The P's kid was not there for her to question him.
Unfortunately by law it's her fault. It may not be right. Remember my nephews stole my mom's car. She was so pissed. But fortunately no accident
The standard of care the 12 year old owes, when doing adult things, would be that of an adult. And he knew (even though he seems as dumb as a rock) what he was doing was wrong.
Either do not volunteer to babysit or put it in writing that if anything happens the child’s parent(s) will be financially responsible.
She needs to go to the doctor for that neck instead of complaining in court
Yes, maybe a thyroid thing going on. Doesn't look good
What's that red thing? An infected tattoo?
Or she can do both 🙄
Agreed
@@jauneetbrun that's what I'm wondering!
What does she expect. Parents to stay up all night long and literally watch them. Absolutely ridiculous
Why are y’all stupid? When you assume the responsibility of someone else’s children, you are responsible for their actions. How the hell do you not hear three kids going into your room take your car keys and leave your room and start the car unless she was heavily medicated there’s no possible way.
The alternative being that the other mother, one that wasn't even there, should be responsible for the lack of parenting and control at the friends sleepover? Not at all. I have kids stay over at my place all the time, and they're my responsibility while here.
@@groowanderer i'm sure you'd think differently if the child you were watching did something as awful as this 😂
@@ghostdragon5735 Are you implying that she heard them but let them take the keys and drive off anyway? Also, I'm a VERY heavy sleeper. I've slept through thunderstorms so loud that my husband actually wondered if I was still alive. I recognize the plaintiff is liable, but to say that no one could sleep through a few kids sneaking around is absurd.
Why does anyone get a tattoo on their neck? Absolutely hideous.
So weird when the plaintiff starts throwing spaghetti at the wall. JJ tells her it's legally her responsibility what happens while the kids are in her care. "But she could have come over and picked them up at 2:00 when she was doing driving for Uber!" Huh??
She is trying to say this happened later than the time the defendant was supposed to have come to retrieve her kid.
Watching Judge Judy never gets old, always a great watch
Like dang Judge Judy I was asleep 😢😂 can I get a break? Kids can be very sneaky and I would NEVER deal with her ever again poor parenting
You can be sleepy. But if it happened at your house, your liable. If it happened at mine, I am. Unfortunate, but simple.
Also, her badass son was home. If it was in her drawer in her room… who do u think went in her room while she was sleeping to get it?? The Plaintiff is liable.
Judge Judy is very wrong in this case
This is one of the few times I disagree with Judge Judy, these kids need to be held accountable and take some responsibility. They're not toddlers. They should do some community service at the very least.
Where is the law in all this, her car was stolen, both children should be charged with illegal and reckless driving, public endangerment… both children need to be serving community service picking up trash. 😐
2:19 FR, what normal person is going to "WATCH" children sleep at 2 o'clock in the morning. JJ be fr because that falls under the category of being a creep
9/10 commenters on Judge Judy agree neck tattoos are a bad idea...
Face tattoos as well.
No. Only old ass boomers are still prejudice against tattoos.
@@BlitzoSuck33 Actually, I'm gen X and we stated that neck and face tattoos are a bad idea. Neither of us said ALL tattoos.
Her nevk looks strange, like cancer
@@DianaPrince777all tattoos are ugly, but the face and neck ones are simply a big no.
When teenagers spend the night, you are on high alert all night. Just pretty much how it works.
The only thing this is teaching people is that it is insane to ever allow children that age to spend the night. All they have to do is have a psychotic episode, or be a little shit, and a stranger's kid can bankrupt you.
These two women are literally bonded together because they both have brutish boys and now she’s acting surprised?
Keywords: Don't babysit your friends kids ‼️ Lol lmao XD #hahahaha 😭😂💀
right!!!
“You must be a heavy sleeper”
JJ producers EASILY find American idiots ( because the words are synonymous) for this show to go on forever.
1:52 Guy in pink shirt and blue suit behind plaintiff 🤩🤩🤩
That kid looks like his mother and father are brother and sister!!! 😂😂😂
Aye, chill out 😂😂😂😂
This is nuts. She put the keys in her room in her drawer and left her door open and she’s liable? Wow.
This doesn’t make you good or bad it just makes YOU responsible.
Who hides their car keys in their draw… that’s suspicious. She knew what her kid at least was capable off.. bold enough to sue this woman. Crazy
Say what you want. Judge Judy is giving y’all the law!
When an accident happens all friendships go out the window and parents can become savage. Be very careful watching other people kids and/or allowing them to drive in the car with your kids.
The plaintiff's son who was home for a visit for behavior problems should have been heavily monitored to start with.
You know your children and what they can do alone, mix in other kids and the damage multiplies, this is not the defendant's fault.
For real💯
The plaintiff's face and name should be in the dictionary for "audacity." 😮
I agree with JJ.
If you baby sit, it is YOUR responsibility. That’s why I do not! It’s the law.
Yes! I don’t get all these other comments. If it was at the Defendants house, the defendant would be liable, simple. And it’s never happened at the defendants house, it happened at the Plaintiffs.
Her own son knew were her drawer was in her room and had the nerve to go get it. Sucks, but that’s on her.
If my son is at school and goes into his teachers purse, steals her keys, takes her car, and crashes it...I would be responsible. JJ got this wrong.
She still owes 4k. That's what gap insurance is for. You work it into your car loan.
This “single mother” title she’s peddling isn’t moving JJ at all… so what if you’re a Madre Soltera?
I hate it when women use that excuse!
Learnt! Never watch friends under age children again!!
The plaintiff kid took those keys. He would be the only one to know where they are. She should have hidden them better. 😂
The little punk needs to be held accountable.
She should have called the police
5 kids, probably by 5 different men, none of whom have any custody. Society just gets lower and lower.
They were in her home under her care, it’s legally her responsibility. But her friend could pay half the deductible in kindness
Is there a part 3?
As a professional that inspects b&c facilities for adults….if this occurred while the client was at their b&c facility, the facility staff would be held accountable and mostly like be cited for lack of supervision. The plaintiff should be held accountable as well.
This is exactly why I’ll never do in home daycare even thought it would be nice to earn extra money as a stay at home mom. Turn your back for a second, go to the bathroom- you’re completely liable.
Single mothers she said?! Single mothers with 5 kids? A single mother stops at 1 or 2
That’s how Insurance people do: delay, deny and depose.
Currently having breakfast what perfect timing
The only victim here is the 5 year old.
I agree the plaintiff should pay the deductible if her son was driving, but not the down-payment on a new vehicle. He didn’t wreck a brand new car.
Them eyebrows are perfect
These women should have been able to work this out between them rather than taking it to court.
Sometimes the decision that make sense in court don’t translate to the real world… They certainly don’t repair friendships! lol
Accountability is lacking these days
She’s not responsible for them stealing her car when she’s asleep that’s ridiculous! These kids are future inmates
This is the earliest I've ever gotten to comment and I'm very happy 😂
Yay! Congratulations 🎉
If she wanted to get reimbursed for the accident. She would have to press charges on the children.
If her insurance didn’t payoff the remaining loan, she either has awful insurance or she bought from a used car lot that finances people with bad credit and charges them way more than the car is worth.
Don’t all dealerships charge more than a car is worth to make a profit? That’s why you get more with private sales than trade ins. She probably didn’t have GAP insurance. I didn’t when I bought my first car because I didn’t know about it and the dealership never mentioned it. Now I have GAP insurance through the finance company not my car insurance company. I found out about GAP when a guy told me his car caught fire sitting in his driveway from an electrical problem. It was totaled, but the value was less than the loan. He had to keep paying the note to pay the balance despite not having a car and needing to buy a new one.
If I knew my son is a bit troubled I would have put the keys in my pillowcase and an alarm on my door
The lesson is, think hard if you have enough time and resources to have children in your life. Is a life time responsibility.
She should have went to the people's court. I think the judge is getting a little slow
The plantiff son was definitely in on the car accident 😂😂
Where is part 3 😢
That boy definitely is the one that took the keys. I’m surprised JJ didn’t pick up on that.
Where’s part 3???
Wheres part three?
Wow. Long time JJ fan and this is the first one I’ve ever seen her get wrong.
Seems like jj is more like a mom teaching him Accountility than his mom sad
Last time I checked if anyone including your own child STEALS your car or uses it without permission it's called "unlawful use of a vehicle" or possibly even grand theft. I am confused. I just recently watched a JJ case where a Mom sued her daughter for taking her car and wrecking it and JJ sided with the mother so I am confused.
Everybody's got a kid with autism these days. It's like a crutch.
She slept through 3 kids sneaking into her room and starting a car then babbles something about how the other mother was supposed to come get her kids at 2am????
I wish there was a part three to see how it ends as I have a pretty good feeling but still want to see if the plaintiff understands what judge Judy is trying to say here
I found part three it was disappointing 🤷♀️ some people need to stop and listen to
lesson learnt, dont help anyone.
Damn, you've disappointed us all with this one Judith😂🥴
Did the judge expect her to stay up all night watching them?
That is something I don’t understand either. If my children or visiting children entered my room in the middle of the night and rummaged through my drawers I would hear it. These children supposedly came in her room and rummaged through her underwear drawer and she didn’t hear them
Is a “ living facility” code for group home… because I never heard of that..
Heck my dad was FBI!! I snuck out a lot! Now, granted I didn’t go far lol! But slept right through me sneaking out and back in! So by this he’s a bad parent! Gold!
I don’t agree with JJ on this one. She’s making a plantiff solely liable when she took extra steps to prevent the outcome.
To those who think JJ is wrong, how do you express to hold this young man accountable?
There are juvenile facilities where they can go for behaviour modification, much like where her own child is. He needs behavioral correction, attitude adjustment and to experience consequences for his choice of action as the driver. My adopted nephew who loved sneaking out windows and running from school around age 12, spent 6 months in a facility where he learned following directions, got one on one tutoring, and discipline gor bad choices in terms of sitting in his room isolated from sports and activities, governed by strong young counselors who could enforce the rules. So when he returned he no longer faked, showers by running water and playing his Gameboy instead. It really turned him around. Poor kid came from an unfortunate home.
She's not insinuating that she is bad person at all... she is responsible for wat happened. That's it That's all
I mean you can’t expect her to stay up all night. I think Judy is being way too harsh
The defendant’s son looks like a prisoner already
JJ is wrong here. She is not liable for the criminal act of a visitor to her home even if the person is a minor. Particularly if it cannot be shown that she was in any way negligent (which she was not).
So, the lady was supposed to stay awake for 24 hours straight? How unrealistic is that?
Plaintiff should have had GAP insurance to cover the shortage on the loan less the actual cash value. That’s on her. Ridiculous. It costs about $40/year when you add it to your auto insurance.
