Agree.This just defies belief. Too upsetting for her?? How the duck did she think it was for Isabelle then?
I cannot envisage a scenario where I could see a baby in this state and not somehow find a way to remove her from the situation.
I couldn't turn my back on a suffering rat caught in a trap, never mind a BABY - and my own grandchild at that!
If I suspected there was anything amiss (and she obviously did) I would have moved Hell and high water to get the authorities involved somehow, I would have offered to have her for a sleepover and taken her to hospital, I would have alerted the police and social services, I would have rung the NSPCC. I would have just gone in, if necessary and carried that baby out of the house away from that drunken, drug addled pair of sh*tballs.
This isn't a situation where the child's abuse has been hidden - it has been on full show - to the extent that it was "too upsetting" to look at, and she just pushed it out of her mind. Both "grandparents" did. I hope they rot.
