I’ve never reported someone to CPS..

Update: Thanks for the positive & negative comments. I honestly feel like I did the right thing! If you knew me, you’d know I would never call on anyone for anything. I mind my own business, I’m not the next ‘bbq becky’ lol I actually live in a apartment building and there is constantly fighting and screaming from my neighbors. They have kids as well and it goes on for hours! At least 3-5 times a week. It last 2-3 hours at a time. Sounds like they are throwing furniture at the wall and slamming their front door. I constantly have to fix my Decor on my wall cause it falls off, gets crooked. I have never called on them. Although they do get on my nerves.

Update: I wasn’t reporting it because I could hear it... it took me 10 min to decide wether or not I should & i felt like I should. He knew he was getting it.... she was hitting him hard, I saw it. So hard she missed the one time. 8 times was excessive... there was too many cons. She could have spanked him no more than 3 times. She could have used less force. I’ve seen many kids get whooping and this one is the only one I felt I should call on. Calling CPS on someone has never crossed my mind until today. I hope he’s not getting abused, but who am I to know that for sure. If he’s not, that is AWESOME! ❤️

But I did today. Did I do the right thing?

So I was in my car about to go somewhere & this little boy who appears to be around 3 years old was outside. Well, he’s standing there yelling ‘please don’t spank me’ over and over and he walks farther away because he knows he’s getting hit (he wasn’t away from his apartment. He was in their grass area) and she walks up and grabs his arm lifts it up and hits him 8 times on the butt. I’m a good stance away and I heard every single one and the last one she missed and got his leg. Of course he’s bawling... and she drags him inside.

I don’t spank my children, but not against it.

This girl was like 300+ pounds and I could tell she was mad. It looked like too much force was being put into the spankings.

I didn’t call until 10 min later. It just didn’t feel right.

Do you think I did the right thing?
