I would call it in if it were my decision. It's painful to realize that there is the possibility the children can be removed from the home for awhile. But this is not how socialized intelligent people live and she knows that by her actions in the past of cleaning when she had to.
As the other poster said, I doubt if CPS will take the children, but with a new baby coming into that environment, they may move the young mother to a different situation and the small child and the baby should have regular follow-ups for health reasons too.
Sad that you have to think about doing this, but glad you care enough to consider it. Good luck with your decision. |
