“I’m baby”
Is she trying to say “I am, baby”? Do people abbreviate like that?
I think the “I’m baby” is the result of using voice to text while she’s in the car on the way home. I don’t think she’s crafting messages in a way usual of anyone. She is spending the minimum amount of time on the phone to let her daughter know she has been heard, then focusing the rest of her energy on getting back there asap.
Yeah I know. She’s probably freaking out if her mind and just trying to focus on getting home to her daughter.

I’ve2
I was thinking “I’m busy”?
Autocorrect does.
Why should not I?
When there’s an intruder in their home with their child, yeah

She’s certainly no parent.
I’m baby
Probably meant “I am, baby” as in on her way home.
I just thought it was an autocorrect from “I’m busy” tbh. Hoping you’re right

The burglar is a pedo
Is this one of those subs where pedo rape jokes are funny or one of the ones where pedo rape jokes are discouraged?
Dont know. But as jokes go it’s as tired and bad as blackface and “gay best friend” in RomComs

Mom cares about her kid’s safety but that K was just her taking a step back and wondering if it’s worth it when she still can’t get ‘hear’ right
they both have terrible spelling though
“K”
“I’m baby”?
Did she mean “I’m busy”?
If so this is messed up.
I thought maybe it’s “I am, baby”
Hope so. That would be far better.
Me too, I hope
Hopefully she was rushing home - maybe driving? - and couldn’t text well?
“K”, and “I am baby”?
She is a baby. I guess she was on some good stuff.

Comments are funny and this girl was so smart and fast it’s incredible. But I have a question because I’m not American and I see this all the time: why do they make/let 14year olds babysit toddlers and babies. I understand that it’s cheaper or free if it’s a family member. But there are many emergencies (more common than this one) that I don’t think a teen is matured or prepared for, seems crazy to me to leave a child in the care of another child
I suspect it’s legal because it was a prevalent practice before laws were made, and nobody wanted to change that so they just made sure the law allowed for what they were already doing. For example, Kansas was part of a “territory” before it was a state, so only the USA as a whole had authority, and I doubt there were many laws about the subject we’re discussing, so there was probably literally no local law enforcement in most of Kansas at some point. Additionally, in the USA people settled / farm(ed) by having one family live far away from everyone else (as opposed to in Europe where it was supposedly more common to have a central place where a lot of people lived and then they would walk to their sector of farmland that surrounds the town). This means that people with 8 kids probably assigned any 14 or 16 or 12 year olds to watch the younger kids, while the adults and older children were out farming or preparing food (which took a lot more time in the past), since there was no other adult that was physically close by (and any that were would probably have to attend to their own farm/business rather than help with raising someone else’s kids).
Because emergencies are so rare. Many adults are quite unprepared for a lot of them as well.
It’s different if you were to leave like a 1-2 year old in the care of someone but it’s generally okay to leave a 5-10 year old in the care of a 14-15 year old. They mostly just need to feed them and make sure they go to bed.
Plus it gives the teens responsibility and some extra money to spend and it helps them get prepared for the future. Usually if it’s a super young one the teens tend to have first and courses suitable for young children as well or actual baby sitting certifications from a course of some sort.
Sounds like when the guy knocked on the door she could’ve just shouted “we don’t want any” and he would’ve left
I was thinking why she didn’t just call the police herself but apparently it was so the intruder wouldn’t hear her
*here
I’m not sure which part you’d want me to change lol
E: It’s a joke about the spelling on the texts, isn’t it
Yeah, it’s

Imagine if the last thing you saw from your mom was k.
Fun fact: this comment makes sense both in English and in Spanish!
I mean… That was exactly the right thing to do.
Respond as fast as possible as clearly as possible.But looking back on it, it is pretty fucking funny to read.

What happens if it isn’t available in your area do you get a notification or you just sit there waiting?

I was about to roll my eyes and scroll past your comment but then I read “powdered wig”. I was committed to read it all when I saw “smoothbore”. The “tally ho lads” was hilarious. Great job all the way through!
It’s what they would have wanted. All the way down.
This might be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever read.

Y’all focused on the wrong thing. How the fuck you pronounce the nieces name?
Zoyee?
I’m listening.
what name?
I am wondering too, and I’m kind of worried it’s an awful spelling of Zoë?
Ah! We have a version of the tragedeigh sub over here too! It’s only got one post though, but this would fit right in it!
I didn’t know this was the origin of the “I’m baby” meme: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/im-baby
What hurts the most is that “here me”
