I’m Yasmyn Switzer, mom of three! I’m here to share my story about my journey as a mother, hopefully making memories that will last a lifetime for myself, Logan and my beautiful baby girls, Laela, Analia, and now baby 3! Join us as we vlog about pregnancy, parenting, fashion, beauty, relationships, and so much more!
Omg my heart 🥺 77 and working full time while raising those kids. You and your grandmother are amazing. God bless y’all. Praying everything works out for your family. Those babies all deserve better
Isn't Yasmin Supporting her Grandmother with money? So that she doesn't need to work in that age 👀
You are literally the definition of changing the cycle. I struggle with addictive tendencies. The problem is you gotta understand that she won't get help unless she wants the help. I commend you for sticking around & taking on the role of caregiver immediately.
She’s a great role model for her sisters also they are lucky to have her
You’re such an amazing mom and sister Yasmyn. This shows what an amazing heart you have. Continue the fight for your brother and we will all be here supporting you and your family❤️
Yasmyn I know exactly how you feel .I have a son who has almost lost his life twice to alcohol and drugs.He was on lifesupport twice and pull thought it. He is living with me right now which isn't easy. We lost his father and my husband seven years ago . So it's just me ,his sister which has a big family and a brother which just got marry. I told him he could stay with me but the first time he screw up he is out o. The streets . As I can't and will not go through his alcohol and drug addiction. He has been clean 5 months and I pray he keeps it up. I will put you ,your Mom and family on my pray list. I know prayers work as the Doctors told us that my son would be in a nurse home in diapers and a trait the rest of his life that was 4 years ago . He is doing great . Just like he was when he was younger before he started with his addiction. I love you and your little family .
She's absolutely amazing and also I hope she prioritises her own wellbeing too soon as its clear how much pain and stress and past trauma is current to her right now and that's so so hard. ❤

While I think people are being genuine with their comments let’s be honest that people are seeking snippets of someone’s life. While Yasmin is trying to change the course of her life which is great at the end of the day Yasmin is still very young to be handling the amount of everyday life can be stressful. It’s wonderful to tell someone how great they are on TH-cam but at the end of the day I’ve noticed that Yasmin doesn’t take constructive criticism at all. Her way of dealing with any type of a difference of opinion is to delete or block the person. While we all make mistakes & no one is perfect learning from other’s mistakes are a great way to improve our lives.
Sorry but Yasmin seems to go from one thing to another. She herself can’t fix everything. Yasmin is right that her GMA isn’t helping Yasmin’s mom that’s for sure.
This baby of her moms has the best chance to be placed for adoption. Having 3 kids of her own needs to paramount.
It’s hard to believe that the state hasn’t stepped in. The story told about Yasmin’s mom nodding off & holding a newborn is proof the poor baby needs a better home.
It would be tragic if somehow something happened to the little guy. It would be horrific if Yasmin got wrapped up in this mess & her own kids were comprised because Yasmin was trying to do the right thing.
In other words Yasmin you not be careful here. CPS could very well get involved here & there’s a lot of kind genuine people like Yasmin that could end up losing her own kids. Of course it’s okay to get mad at me for making this comment BUT Yasmin you have every right to be afraid of not only for that poor baby but for your own family.
Yasmin don’t let your heart ( even though it is in the right place)
Sounds like what’s going on with the baby!!! Just be careful because as you say things could happen that you are trying to prevent.
It’s great that you’re trying to do the right thing but at the end of the day your kids & Logan are your first priority.
You don’t tell a little kid about issues they don’t understand or can’t control. This baby after all can’t understand as a child what is going on.
He should be placed with a stable family member or for adoption.

You are such an incredibly strong woman. Maintaining your little family including a newborn, and stepping in for your little brother. Such a selfless act and I hope you realize how much good you put into this world. I’ve been watching since Laela was born and you were living with your aunt, and you have come such a long way! You have so much support from your fan base and your family - you’ve got this mama!!
I have been a social worker in the child welfare system for 8.5 years now. First, I am so sorry for your brother and the seriously unfortunate circumstances that he came into the world. Addiction is terrible in every way but I always find a silver lining when I see family members step up, intervene and do the right thing for the vulnerable infants who have been negatively impacted. Thank you for posting this and sharing your story. He is going to have such a better future because of what you and your family members have done.
Hi! I am actually studying to be a social worker and wondering maybe you could tell me about it? I’m in my first intro to social work class and she told us to talk to social workers in the field so we can learn more about it. I was wondering if maybe you could tell me about it. If not it’s okay I just saw you wrote you were a social worker for 8.5 years in the field that im interested in! Child welfare system.
@@vivianmiller6842 if you don’t get a response I’m glad to help. I’m a licensed social worker
My husband and I adopted a 4 year old boy from foster care. He was in and out of foster care for the first four years of his life and developmently delayed due to the drugs he was exposed to. He is now 22 graduated college and has a full time job. I'm praying for your brother that he gets the care he needs to have a successful life. He's lucky to have a wonderful sister like you.
You and your Aunt are literal saints. Obviously there are probably more players involved in this but over and over again, you and your aunt have fought for your siblings❤️ and she with you, what a blessing it is to have a such a wonderful family surrounding that baby with love and protection. You guys got this💞
Her grandma too💕 They all deserve the world for all they do
@@abigailgrenz2811 yes I was about to say that, being 77 it show how amazing of a grandmother she is
As heartbreaking as it is they need to stay away from their mom she is causing nothing but pain and worry I mean for gods sake she put her son life at risk during her pregnancy and know he has health problems if it was me I would cut contact and never see her again I know it’s hard because it’s their mom but she doesn’t priotise her kids and instead her entire family are better parents than her
As a NICU nurse unfortunately I have to witness this situation all the time. It’s absolutely heartbreaking 💔 addicts who live with their parents are often given custody when they normally would not. You are all angels for what you’ve gone through and continue to go through
Healing as a parent means breaking the cycle of family drama and raising your kids how you wish you were raised. You’re doing amazing and I genuinely hope that you realize how strong you are and amazing you are ! Sending good vibes and so much love 🤍✨
AMEN!
I understand the pain this is causing you. My mom is an addict as well and I had to testify during a custody hearing for my younger sister, I bawled my eyes out on the stand as she glared at me. I haven't talked to my mom in 4 years due to her addiction. Stay strong momma.
that’s absolutely heartbreaking, hugs to you love💗
Can I ask how your sister is doing? Where is she now? Like who is she living with.
You, your grandmother, and aunt are some of the strongest people! It’s amazing that your whole family stepped in to take care of him! We are actually a little over 9 months apart in age, and I can’t even imagine going through something like this at 21!
Prayers for you. I’ve went through this my whole life. My sister hasn’t seen her baby in almost 3 years. Sometimes taking the child is the best outcome.
Remember when Yasmyn thought she was having a boy? It’s as if that was a sign that she was going to have a brother. She even bought things for a baby boy, and then had to mourn the loss of a son she thought she was going to have. But, she ended up having a new little boy in her family anyway💙
You’re doing such a great job and really showcasing what it means to be a great sister and mother!!!! So glad you are taking care of your brother and being there for him before he even really realizes
Your grandma sounds like a amazing woman. I understand your mother is her daughter, and she doesn't want to just cut her off, and what not. My heart breaks for for your grandma and you kids. I hope one day your mother gets the help she needs and realizes that it's not the way of life, that there is so much more to it than drugs. I'm so glad you're standing up and doing what you need for your brother. Trying to help your aunt get custody, so he's in a stable home. You definitely shouldn't have to, especially at your age. You're s amazing sister!!!
What you’re doing is incredibly honorable. No one should have to go through this but the fact that you’ve stepped in is absolutely incredible. I encourage you guys to look into the Early Intervention program in the state and county that your brother will be living in. With the drug exposure piece, this program would help with any kind of therapy services that he may qualify for.
She is so lucky to have you in her life, you are such a kind loving person. Things will get better, hang in there.
She doesn’t deserve to have her children in her life Yasmyn is better than her mom could have been it’s horrible to say but she needs to be kept away from her children she put her son at risk while pregnant and his health problems are her fault if she was my mother and she put my brother at risk I would have taken my siblings and turned my back her and never looked back I know what it’s like having someone I love have a substance abuse but she never would put me or my brother at risk
Best of luck with your new brother, your girls and your mom Yasmyn. We're all right here for you.💙
Edit: And think of it this way. This little boy is the reason your whole family came back together, just because they loved him so much! He made a bad situation turn into something beautiful. I know you guys will never let him forget how loved he is.🤍
Yes! We will support her no matter what
Wow!! I can't imagine dealing with this at 41. Let alone 20. I am blown away by your maturity and the amount of responsibility your take on. I will pray for you & your family. Sending love from Canada
You’re such a strong woman and your family is so blessed to have you ALL OF THEM❤️ Sending so many prayers!
Yes!
We will support her whatever she decides! . Love u guys. CANT WAIT FOR LONDYN TO BE THE BEST SISTER EVER
you’re so unbelievably strong. the way you immediately knew that you needed to fight for your brother shows how much love you have for him. i know he will be forever grateful for you and your family
You are changing his life in the best way possible. You are breaking generational trauma and raising some amazing humans while you’re at it 💖 you are phenomenal
Can’t believe your family have been going through this. Addicts are so hard to deal with and especially with it being your mother it’s so complicated. You’re such an amazing big sister to her especially since you’re a mom to 3! Sending prayers to your family especially that sweet boy- his life is so much better because of you and your extended family ♥️
Really sorry you’re going through this. Especially sorry for your sisters and baby brother. I hope they can get some consistent stability in their lives very soon. You’re wise beyond your years and are able to see how much this time can effect the rest of your baby brothers life. Thinking of y’all!
You are the support I needed when I was your little brothers age. Damn girl, you are such a fantastic human.
I'm adopted and my birthmother was an addict. I grew up with what they call FAS (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome) and yes it does affect me mentally and physically, but you just have to show your little brother as he grows up that nothing can stop him no matter what. I'm 21 and 4'8 I'm so short because of my developmental issues that are no fault of my own. Just stay strong and make sure you just remind him all his life that he is loved, and nothing can stop him.
Yasmyn, you’re such a good mama/sister. You are so young, but have such naturally mother instincts (even if this situation was forced upon you). Praying for you
Hang in there sweetheart. I too helped my niece and nephew starting at 13. You are full of love and those babies will never forget that love you've shown and given them. It would be sweet to see him grow up with you and your children.
seeing you go from living with your aunt right after laela was born to now, you’re such an incredible mom and sister and im so proud of you. your brother is going to appreciate you and your aunt so much when he’s older. you’re amazing and you’ve got this🤍
Stay strong. You're doing the right thing. You're an amazing mommy and an incredible big sister. Know that you're malking a difference, it will be hard, but worth it. You can do this, please remember to take care of yourself!
Thank you for trusting us and sharing what is going on with your family. We are all here to support you and will be praying for all of you! You are amazing and are such a incredible mom to your beautiful girls! And you are an amazing sister as well! Your sisters and brother are blessed to have you as a steady and loving presence in their lives! You will get through this. We’re cheering you on!
I’ve watched you since you were in high school pregnant with lyla and am continuously amazed by your strength and determination to make your situation and the lives of your children/ siblings better than what you went through. You continue to be so powerful and make decisions that positively affect your family and are shining light on the true horrors of addiction and how many people it affects. Keep going. You are stronger than you give yourself credit for.
I lived with my mother like this for years, thank goodness something happened during my birth and it caused her to be unable to have more children. She got sober for a while but when I got married and started having my own kids she relapsed and now I've had 3 kids and she's just getting worse 😞 you are so strong!!!
I have never in my life met someone your age that is so mature and has her head on straight. You amaze me sweetheart! This whole situation is heartbreaking but you are dealing with it beautifully! I’m so proud of you!!!
I’m so sorry you have to carry all of her burdens… as someone who has also been directly affected by an addict and for years felt shame and incompetence because of their actions I understand you and I feel for you. I wish you and your family nothing but health and clarity.
This breaks my heart! I’m so sorry you and your siblings have to go through this! My mom is an alcoholic and it is a hard hard process as the child. She isn’t around around my baby as of right now. You are not alone❤️ praying for all of you
I had to leave home at 15 for the same reasons and lost both of my parents to overdose when I was 24. The feeling of guilt still hasn't fully left me, 11 years later.. even though I know that it wasn't my responsibility to save them. Please try to get into therapy, it really does help. I'm praying for you and your entire family. 🙏🏼💜
I work in the hospital nursery and want to commend you for being such an amazing responsible sibling for your brother! I always worry about babies I sent home with parents who are users and this gives me hope that some families have people like you to step up and care for that baby
I’m really glad your relatives are there helping as much as they can, this isn’t an easy situation but it’s so much harder to do on your own, especially with your sisters and your own kids
I could not imagine being in your position. Just know how proud we all are of how strong and beautiful you are. We all love you.
I’m so proud of you! Even when you know it’s in your brother’s best interest, I’m sure upsetting your mom/hurting her feelings isn’t easy. However, you ARE doing the right thing, and this tedious court process will be worth it to change his life! He is going to see how loved he is when he gets older. As a foster mom to a non-relative baby, it’s heartwarming to see such a loving and sacrificial sister like yourself, and your family, rallying around him! Keep fighting for his best interest! People like your grandma or a caseworker might tell you to step back. If something doesn’t sit right in your soul, don’t listen to them! Follow your gut. It can be easy to tell yourself, “These are the experts. What do I know?” But like you said yourself, people can be manipulated. The state also doesn’t know your mom like you do. They might care, but they also have tons of other cases. Make your voice heard! You’ve got this!! ❤️
As a foster Mum I agree with you 100%.
Sweetie, I am so proud of you 💗💗 I know it’s hard but you are doing the right thing and for your age, I am proud. I don’t comment ever but I am 50 and I have 4 daughters and I would be PROUD to call you one of my daughters 💗💗
You got this 🙏🏻🙏🏻
You are strong Yasmyn! Your brother will grow to feel the love you have for him. ♥️♥️
You have the purest soul! That little boy has the best big sister ever. You forever changed his life already. The future is looking brighter. Prayers for sweet baby boy and your sisters. You are so strong! You can do this.
Knowing your brother will be able to watch this video when he’s older and thank you ! I go through similar issues. It’s so hard when it’s our parents. But you are doing the right thing love 💕
I’m from Argentina, 45 yrs old and feel so proud of you, you are just amazing, strong, kind, loving, mature and turned around your life in an incredible and really difficult way, you should be proud of yourself, I am,
My mom was a NICU nurse for 35 years. I also have a family member that was born drug addicted, she is now 5 and has no longer lasting effects. They do fully recover with no issues.
Addiction is soul destroying to see. You are changing your baby brothers life story by being strong enough to be there for him in the best way you can. Don't be hard on yourself for not always being able to be there because your children also need you to grow and to be happy. One day at a time. Sending you so much love and hugs from New Zealand ❤
as a social worker, i can say that u did the right thing. this is so hard but it will be worth it in the long run!
You’re so strong Yasmyn. You did the right thing 💗 You’re such a good mom and sister. I’m praying for you and your family, and your little brother
Although she’s never admitted to it I know my sister battles with addiction. I can’t stand to see her that way it hurts so much and I feel so helpless. My biggest fear is that she overdoses or gets pregnant, she’s been wanting a baby for the longest time. You are an amazing big sister and ur little brother is lucky to have someone that will fight for them and love them unconditionally.
Being a child of substance abuse is so hard. Thanks for sharing your story it’s really touched me and made me feel seen ❤️
Such a crazy story. It really never ends. I'm so glad your brother has you to advocate for him. It's hard, but you're doing the right thing.
You are an incredibly strong person. I worry for your little sisters who live in the same house. Continue to stay strong you are a great mother and sister! Don't forget that its okay to take some time for yourself...it's okay to take a time out and not be okay, even if its just for 5 minutes or an hour.
“Please just let me take him home” Yasmyn I’m crying your so amazing, what your willing to do for your family. Your soul is so beautiful 🤍
Yasmyn, I’m kind of the same. My biological father lied to my mother about his psychological and physical health problems and now everyday I worry about how I will pass those onto my kids and tell them that their “grandfather” is the reason why they’re suffering at such a young age. I, of course already have been dealing with these physical conditions, but I’m not giving up on my chance to live life to the fullest. So as long as you’re there for your brother and support him to the best of your ability, he will be just fine 😊
Yasmyn, I'm so sorry you had to go through this. I lost my dad in January this year due to substance related problems. It's so awful what it does to a family. You are so strong and definitely an inspiration for me. -Jayne W.
Hearing this makes me so glad I got recovery and didn't mess my kids hearts up
I’m so glad you’re the oldest. You are a safe space your siblings will forever need/crave for and you being there to support them and lead them down the right path will make all the difference in their lives
Yasmyn, your strength and altruism is absolutely astounding. Your babies, siblings, mom and entire extended family are so lucky to have such a sensible, emotionally-mature, beautifully-supportive beacon of hope. I cannot even begin to imagine how difficult this situation is for you, please make sure you’re taking care of yourself in these times - you won’t be able to keep fighting if you’re running on empty.
Sending so much love and strength to your family and prayers for your little brother’s health 🤍
My inbox is always open if you’re ever needing someone to vent to ✨🕊
Wow, you are so so Strong, it's takes a lot of gut and nerve to show up to a place where you know it's going to a place of trauma to you. You are such an amazing human that puts others health before yours. Try to get some sleep and know that you have done good! Sending prayers 💖
My 2 granddaughters are going through this with their mom. I hope they turn out like you. Such a great heart! This is very brave of you. These things break my heart. We all need to take care of our children! You should be proud of yourself!
Your brother is so blessed to have you. Continue to be brave for him as he is truly an innocent in this situation. Prayers to you and your entire family ❤️
You and your grandma are super hero’s. You care so much about your family and it shows. Your girls have an amazing role model ❤️
Prayers to you, your baby brother and your family! God has a plan!! The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.” ~ Psalm 32:8
When you did the pregnancy test it said ‘boy’ and then when you did the second one it said ‘girl’. I think its your destiny to have the baby boy in your family. You did so much (more than his mom) and i think we are not call our moms ‘mom’ because of biogical bond, we are call them ‘mom’ because they are acting like a mom. You are the mom for your brother. You are so strong and Logan is so understanding. You are the best!🤍
Best of luck to your new baby brother...I hope you able to see him more
I'm so sorry you're going through this. my mother is an addict as well and taking him away from her is the best thing you guys can do. but please remember you're allowed to be upset and not want to help and that you don't have to. I'm wishing you all the best 💕
You're absolutely amazing! As a mother, sister, and just all around a wonderful person! You're so incredibly strong! I have almost 5 years clean from heroin and now have two beautiful girls, 18 months and almost 4 months and I can NEVER imagine under any circumstances going back to that life and doing that to my girls. Your mom will get help when she's ready, everyone has their own journey, and it takes some one try and other 100s. I'll be praying for you and your family!
You are so mature, and have a heart of gold… You are his angel on earth. Really, you are.😇
it’s so obvious you love your siblings so much and genuinely want to help them have a better life, you’re so strong and inspiring, i really hope that you can be closer to them in terms of distance, we’ll be here to support you no matter what hope everything goes well❤️
Your heart is so pure and strong. What you are doing is beyond your years. You’re an incredible person. Your daughters are so lucky to have a mom like you
Yazzie I’m so sorry you and your siblings have had to go through this. You’re so strong and the love you have for your family is amazing. You’re a beautiful soul. You’re my inspiration. You’re truly an amazing sister, daughter, fiancé and mommy to those girls and your baby brother. Seeing you cry breaks my heart. You’re amazing yazz stay strong beautiful
You are so strong Yasmyn. I too am a product of someone who struggles with addiction, and it inspires me that you’re able to speak about your mother with respect. I am guilty of saying unkind things about my own. Thank you for being raw. Thank you for doing what you do.
My heart goes out to your whole family! I cant even imagine what you have been going through but I would of done the same thing if I had too!!! You, Logan, your grandma, your sisters and the rest of your family are doing to right thing! Never doubt that. I am praying your little brother will make it through his health problems and grow up to be amazing!
You are such an inspiration to thousands of families whom may be going through a similar situation. You are a wonderful mother , sister and wife to Logan . Keep trekking forward. You got this ❤️
Yasmyn you are so incredibly strong and have created such a beautiful family, I'm praying for you all
Props to you yasmyn! Your the best Mum,Wife,Sister,Grandaughter,Daughter,Friend,TH-camr!!!!❤Laela,Analia and Millie-Isla are the cutest!❤❤ I hope u see this! . You are a inspiration! You are so strong and I relate to u(With my early childhood) I am still a teen but I am happily adopted and I suffer from mental health issues from my past!we will support you with whatever u chose❤❤❤❤
Yasmyn, you’re an incredible older sister (and mom)! Your brother is so lucky to have you in his corner. I will be praying for you guys!! Love you guys 🤍
Your siblings will be incredibly grateful for you and your voice, fighting for them when they can’t themselves. You are so strong 💪 and an amazing mother and sister 💕💕
i hope you give yourself enough credit for what you have done for your family. your daughters, siblings, grandmother, and especially your mother. even if they cannot appreciate what you have done now, it does not diminish your efforts. stay strong love.
I am a foster care case manager and have worked in child welfare for a couple of years now. Addiction is so scary and heartbreaking for children and families… I’m so proud of you for fighting for his safety even when you’re the child in this situation…the best cases I deal with are ones where families step in. Thank you for being a safety network for your brother 💕
I had a very similar situation. It was my cousin's twin babies. We ended up fighting for custody and won. But it took almost 3 years.
The court let us know that if she started doing well, she could very easily get them back. They told us that she could be doing good for 6 or 9 months and then relapse and we would start the whole thing over again.
We finally talked her into signing over her rights. Our lawyer told us that if she had not done that, we could be fighting for the full 18 years.
The courts are all about reunification. And it can be a good thing. But it can also be a really bad one.
They're 7 now. And they are so precious to me and my husband. We weren't wanting more children but I really feel they completed our family.
I am praying for you guys. I know what it's like to have a mom that's a drug addict and a dysfunctional family. I don't know you but you look like you're doing a pretty good job. I know am a stranger but I am so proud of you.
Reunification fucks with children so much when chance after chance is giving causing more trauma. So glad she did what was right for her birth children and they now have a stable home with you guys!
You can just see the ones that commented and didn't watch until the end. Right now, they made sure the baby is safe with relative. They are working with cps and the court to make sure the baby is out of this bad situation.
Yasmyn. You made the right choice, take care of yourself along the way! Sending love xxxx
Your grandmother needs to kick her out of the house. She is enabling your mom & will love her to death - period. It’s incredibly hard but addicts need boundaries & consequences. There is no amount of love or “help” from loved ones that will convince her to change. I’m so sorry that you have to deal with this. Everyone will tell you that you are “so strong” & that they “don’t know how you do it”. Just know it’s ok to not feel strong. To be angry, overwhelmed & to not be ok ❤️
agree 100%
Her grandma is 77 years old, and still having to work a full-time job to look after her grandkids. That woman is a superhero. But yeah, it sounds like she's weak for her daughter, no matter how she messes up her own kids.
It’s refreshing to see people say it’s okay to not be strong, not feel okay, etc. In my own personal circumstances, it’s been triggering to have my friends tell me “you’re so strong”.
I was going to say exactly that. As long as she’s around (the mom) and allowed to participate the drama is never-ending. You will always worry about her but the worry is limited to her and not the siblings. Even though the grandma is taking care of the older siblings they are not unscathed by the moms problem because she is still there.
100% agree. We had to finally kick out our youngest daughter that is an addict. We have tried helping her for the last 7 yrs. After she had a son and kept leaving and coming back home we filed for custody of her son when he was 2 yrs old. He's always lived with us since the day he was born. Fortunately she didn't use drug's during her pregnancy and He's a happy well adjusted smart 7yr old who know we are his grandparents and who is mom is but he chooses to call us mom and dad and her by her first name. She's not allowed to live with us and we only let her she him if she's sober which isn't often. Some people have said I have a cold heart for not helping her. I tried for many year's and she stole over 60,000. Dollars from us and doesn't care or get better. I'm done contributing to her killing herself and my Grandson comes first.
I’m so sorry about all the anxiety you are feeling. You are amazing and this is not your burden to bear. You did something compassionate out of love for your brother and Grandma and sisters. I’m sending you lots of love.
Your siblings are so lucky to have you, Yasmyn! While I know it's difficult in the moment, in the long run, they will be so much better off because they have you in their corner fighting for them. Sending extra love & good thoughts to that new sweet little boy & to the rest of your family.
My heart goes out to you young lady. It's really good to know that you have role models in your life to talk to. Yes, women can get pregnant in their 40's, it is just harder and ther is risk involved. I hope everything will turn out good for your baby brother.
so glad that your brother is safe at the moment. you are an incredible person and clearly are so resilient and i hope that everything works out for the better
You are so incredibly strong. Thank you for being the type of woman and mother to fight for a child’s safety, even against your mom.
U have such a great heart.
Ur soo much younger then me and have your stuff together more then I do.
Just be soo proud of yourself.
Your beautiful inside and out!

My next door neighbors daughter has an addiction to drugs and had a baby a year ago. Her mother took her son into her home and is in the process of adopting him since the father just got sent back to prison for 10 years for theft and his mother lives on other people's couches all the time. This little boy is the most precious thing. He's such a good kid despite all the drugs that were in his system when he was born. I will pray for your little brother and hope that he gets to live in a drug free home.
your so sweet I'm gonna pray for that baby boy you have an amazing heart.
I have one kid at 21 & it's alot. You're a freakin super mom w having 3 as young as we are. What you're doing for your little brother is amazing you're so strong and it's admirable. I have dealt with court family stuff throughout my highschool years and it was over my little sister. I know it's not fun but it will work out in the end and it's worth the fight. Love you and your little family so much!
You are doing the right thing. Keep seeking safety, loving yourself and establishing healthy boundaries. You deserve peace of mind and the ability to live your own life. This is not selfish… and you are not alone. Serenity prayer sister!!!
I hope it all ends up being okay. I am so proud of you Yasmyn, we all are
