    Why are child services a no no when the child appears to be at risk, especially at such a crucial age?

    You can contact the Gards and voice concerns over the kid, they'll more than likely do the referral to Tusla for you.

    Been there done that and yes it works. Please OP make that call..

    Step 1: Try to bury the hatchet and reconcile with her. Invite her round for tea and drop a plastic bag in front of her. When he she picks it up, have your tea, tell her she is great and go your separate ways.

    Step 2: source 10k worth of heroin. Stash it in the tip of a backgarden, inside the aforementioned bag, with her prints on it. Ring the Garda and tell them a deal is going down.

    Step 3: Have another cup of tea

    never said the kid is in danger in the physical sence

    but you'd need a hasmat suit in that house

    the language constantly , ive often heard the kid at 11pm out in the garden calling for her dad

    she came up to me a few weeks back wearing a onesie with nothing on her feet , eating a yoghurt with her fingers , her onesie covered in it , at 10pm on the street
    For the sake of the child please call Tusla, I know I would if I saw something similar.

    The fact that the child isn't the centre of his concern is what stupefies me.

    How bad do kids have to have it for people to just pick up the phone. Here's a kid who's dirty, lives in apparent squalor, and is seriously neglected, and someone doesn't want to pick up the phone because it might cause an issue for a friend.

    Danger isn't just getting visibly kicked around, this kid is being kicked around in all kinds of ways even if not in the literal sense.

    Please, OP, call the guards about the kid.

    because out of fear for the other neighbour , if i call tusla or tulsa this person with 100 % know it was her neighbour and lets just say they take the kid away , u think the parents wont look for revenge ? these are low lifes trust me

    if they were never arguing with anybody then they'd be nond the wiser , but for arguments sake , throws items at window and screaming at neigjbour on a monday and all of a sudden tusla folk arrive on tuesday , you think they wont twig who called ?

    private house , she lives with her bf and her dad ( who is rarely there ) works away , so no landlord issue

    why not tell her dad ? cause she attacked him a few times , her mother was exactly the same till she left the dad , so he in a way is enabling her , he was told before by sald neighbour and was afraid to do anything

    OP if you consider all users of drugs to be "scum". Then you're literally delusional, and therefor the light in which you've painted your neighbor cannot be taken seriously. As you are clearly very biased and potentially racist (and have a small penis ? e.g. the rage)

    whats penis size got to do with anything , dear lord

    Buy a small bag of gear, lace it with strychnine and leave it outside the front door.

    I see a small issue in your suggestion , it's harder to source and buy strychnine in Ireland legally than it is to buy heroin.

    A bloke I know told me that.

    If you live 5 doors away and have seen the child out in her pyjamas late at night, why would the neighbour automatically assume it was your friend who called Tusla? Surely if the child is wandering around, any of the neighbours can see her. You are sitting by watching a child being neglected and thinking "ah well, nothing I can do for her.. my poor friend who gets shouted at has it worse, what can I do for her?"

    Neglect is the largest type of abuse reported to Child Protection Services, because it is the one that is most visible. You don't really know what is happening the child in doors. Is she being abused? But you definitely know she's being neglected. Yet you won't do anything about that.

    If you're going to keep your nose out of it, then keep your nose right out of it. They haven't done anything to your friend that warrants garda attention. Yet you are trying to figure out how to get the guards involved. Yet you know for a fact that the child is being neglected but are happy to ignore that. You can't feign concern on one hand, and completely ignore real and actual neglect on the other.

    Mind boggling.

    Neglect IS abuse anyway, she doesn't need to have bruises to be abused. Poor kid.

    But then they'd be wrong. Because it wouldn't have been the neighbour. It would have been you, or any one of the other neighbours who can see the child.

    If the neighbour causes any damage to your friends property, then your friend can do something about it.

    Has your friend got a CCTV camera up on her house? It might be worth investing in one.

    By doing nothing you are contributing to the child's neglect and abuse.

    Good man. Is there any chance a few more neighbours would support you? Surely they'd have seen the child out late !

    I'd prefer to live with the neighbors, neighbor than OP.
