Worried about my niece and nephew.
I (19F) want to report my sister to social services about her kids (8M and 6F) but im absolutely terrified. We are also non contact so she might know it was me.
Theres so many red flags going on that I can’t ignore however.
A few weeks ago for instance my sister posted a video of my niece on Instagram to her 600 ish followers and her bfs 1k plus followers. In this video, my niece was stood on the settee with no clothes on except her pants which were skin coloured and as it was dark you couldn’t even tell she had them on, she was stood up swearing at the camera and the tv calling everyone a ‘fucking bitch’ and my sister and her bf were laughing about it. A 6yr old girl in a dark room, with barely any clothes on swearing and being laughed at because of it. I told my sister to remove it and she left me on read so I spam reported it and instagram took it down thankfully.
My nephew has also has some concerning behaviour. On my sisters Instagram she posted on Sunday that he was up until 6am on his PlayStation and Amazon Alexa and had fallen asleep on her at 6pm and she let him. The next day so the Monday I noticed that he was on his PlayStation all day (I was checking something on my mates profile) and my mum told me that he didn’t go to school because he ‘didn’t feel well’. My mum also said that he’s been fighting other kids at school and when my mum and him played monopoly back in October and he got mad he’d hit and kick others. He also had half a year off school when he was around 5-6 because he kept sobbing and kicking off so they just didn’t send him in.
My sisters boyfriend has been arrested multiple times for domestic violence against my sister but also for unrelated charges like public disturbance and carrying with the intent to supply and twoc. Social services have also been called on them before and my nephew has been in therapy since he was 6, it got to a point where a police officer told my sister that her life and the kids lives are in danger and my sister shrugged it off.
I’m so concerned and it’s making me nauseous thinking about it but the kids are also clothed and fed daily and have parents evenings attended and are taken to the park after school daily so these issues may look minor to the outside world. Should I report them or should I just wait and see what happens over the next few months to a year or two and then make another decision?
