My heart dropped when the little girl said she was hiding by the rocking chair in the dark and a black figure came in serching for her, when he said "Then I felt a hand on my face and my shoulders." Let's Read I love your videos!!!!

[@catsupy]

The story with the mother who partied and left her kids alone, I honestly feel like the kids SHOULD have been taken away from her. That's ridiculous.

[@masayangbuhay5027]

This is a sad reality for sooo many kids!! The system fails them, along with the selfish parent/s.

[@catsupy]

@@masayangbuhay5027 very true!

[@mamamia5556]

No wonder they got divorced 🤣

[@codylabelle7993]

It must of took place in the 1980's. Adults leaving their children home alone unattended was pretty common with degenerate parents back then. I figured out it took place in the 1980's since she was talking about giving under her Pound Puppies.

[@artemis2520]

Still a thing in the state today, I have a family member who is insane and who is definitely not fit to raise her own kids... but the state will not do anything to her because she is the "mother". The system in Florida honestly sucks, the law sucks here and definitely fails many kids. That is why this state has so many mentally messed up individuals. I am originally from Illinois, and after spending a decade here in Florida, I seriously want to leave. Not everyone is insane here, but so many messed up and crazy things happen here and it only gets crazier as the years go by and as the population grows.

[@jumpyourbone]

story number four could be a story directly out of my own childhood growing up in florida. in retrospect, my mom was exactly like that, and throughout my upbringing, put me into situations very similar to all the ones the writer described. kind of unsettling to hear narrated aloud as a horror story. but, fair!

I remember the first story and the "I folded the clothes" home invader story from a "stalker story" collection on this channel. Even still, this brings back memories of the half month I spent in the Florida Keys in 2011, doing service hours in beach clean up, coral polyp maintenance and transplanting, and kayaking through Long Key State Park surrounded by alligators and mosquitos.

The second story: Bullshit excuse, the woman at best wanted to harass your daughter, worst kidnap her. Also, I though Gator Patrol, was Gater Patrol, or some sort of slang for looters/burglars.
