My Friends Parents Abuse Prescription Drugs…?

Question by Amber Renee: My friends parents abuse prescription drugs…?
My very best friend and her 5 siblings got put into foster care because of their parents drug use. They were all molested by 2 or 3 different sets of foster parents before being returned to their “recovered” biological parents. The dad is ok but the mom still abuses prescription and passes out while she is alone with the baby (older kids at school, dad working).
My friend is 17 and wants to move out because they make her babysit every day. But she is afraid to leave the little ones with the mom alone or to get them put back into foster care due to their experiences. The dad doesnt care about any of it and neither do her other family members!
Should she report it?
Should she leave?
Can she get the kids somehow?
She is old enough to move out! I am17 and dont live with my parents. I live with my husband…

She shouldn’t do any: Just stay. She’s not legally old enough to move out anyway. Besides, her siblings need her. She cannot just runaway because she doesn’t feel like babysitting them everyday. It’s far from babysitting. Without her, the baby could be in great danger.

If I were her, I would not even THINK of leaving those poor children.

Yes, she needs to report it, get Children’s Services or someone to come in and deal with it. She shouldn’t leave. Especially if her younger siblings aren’t safe. Authorities need to know about this. She can’t get the kids as a minor. But didn’t you say she didn’t like babysitting all the time? If she had the kids, that would be all she’d do.
