Ok so today has not been my day i like to sleep in but my so called friend calls at 8:30am knowing i was up lastnight hanging with my baby bro for his bday. First she says you should be up with your kids well we let them stay up a lil late last night too so they were still asleep too and then she says you have a horse you should be taking care of not sleeping i go every day between 10 and 11 am to feed the horse the first time so i told her its my horse ill controll its feeding schedule. Then they call my hubby at work and tell him your horse is hungry come feed her now. Well i got up and went out there about the normal time fine. Then went back around noon after get some more feed and stuff that had to put in tack room. While there they let there son run around hes only a lil over 2 and was in shirt diaper and sandals and running all over where the horses poo at so then he gets in my van with my kids witch is fine i feel safer with them in there and not in danger of getting kicked or something but he gets ahold of my new cds and scratches them all up and throws themm all over well they say nope he wouldnt do that he knows better. Fine i left said nothing more well we went back around the usual 7pm for second feeding well on way out i didnt know there was a dog loose out there i guess my sone had been talking to it with my so called friends husband earlier well he went to give the dog hug and say buy and the dam thing bit him right in his eye and my the so called friends hubby says your son tried to attack the dog or some stupid stuff like that and my daughter saw it all i saw the dog snap thats all as i turned back around he was only about 10 steps behind me and there is spose to be no dogs out there well the guy says my daughter is a lier omg. Ok my son is like me we think every animal is kind and gental and he would never hurt one all my kids are helping me rehabilitate the horse we have that we rescued. Im just tired of these people being liers and saying there son knows to stay out of things hes 2 he dont know and to me its endangerment when they let him just run all over around all the horses like they do or when she leaves him in vehical while feeding the horses ok im not perfect neither are my kids but my kids get out and walk in with me inless there is someone in the vehical or another vehical sitting right next too it with someone watching them and then i roll windows down and take key with me but my kids are 5 (6 in october) 7 (8 in february) and 9 (10 in september) and i would never leave the vehical running windows up doors unlocked to walk 100 feet or so away to feed my horses. Ok i could go on and on with how this kid is so mistreated but i need to go stretch and calm down and i know i could call cps but i have not because as long as im around i take care of him and he gets to doing better but well im no longer talking to them so i just might call in on them if they make one more slip i dont approve of give me yalls opinions please

ok, I might be the only one, but why are your friends so overbearing in your life?? I'm not trying to be offensive, just curious. We "pick" our friends ... so why do you have friends that feel the need to dictate your life and "tattle" you out to your husband?

If its that you don't agree with HOW they are raising their son, I would just distance myself from them. However, if you genuinely feel this little boy is in DANGER, then you owe it to him to step in. I would talk to him parents first, as kindly as you can, and gently let them know your concerns. They may not see the situation as potentially dangerous. I would only call in CPS as a last resort.
