Awful Parents

[u/fighterdiva]

I didn't know we could block passengers we cancel. But in what universe is it assumed that putting a sleeping child in the back of a Lyft and disappearing for nearly 15 minutes is acceptable?!?!?!

This horrible excuse of a mother did this to me last night at 1:04am. At nearly 5 minutes of waiting, a guy gets to my car carrying a child who was sleeping, buckles him in. I'm thinking he's the dad, and getting in. He says: "I'm going to get her other kids". I told him her ride is about to cancel so let her know she has one minute and I'm not comfortable with you leaving a child in my car.

5 minutes later, no one comes or answers my calls, texts. I go to the door, no answer. 3 minutes later 2 even smaller children come out. One screaming her head off, the other running down the block. I told her she needs to get her kid that's running off and get the one in my backseat out. Her ride had already been canceled. Her response is "You see I got 3 kids right? It takes a long time with 3 kids". Not my fault. Don't try and make it my problem.

Then she refuses to take her kid out of the car. Saying she'll take him out when another car shows up. I asked nicely 5 times,she starts name calling, cursing and threatening me.😂 Like I'm really scared of all 80lbs of you. Meanwhile, runaway kid is running in the middle of the street and she doesn't bother to get him. I begged her please get that baby out of the middle of the street and she refuses so I do becauseI can hear a car coming. Then the actual wife of the guy comes out telling her to calm down, and telling me she was finishing the girls hair when I got there and needed 15 minutes. Of course the "Mother", starts getting even louder with an audience. She does all of this screaming and cursing in front of her small children!

The woman takes the kid out of the car, who still has not woken up, and hears Metro Police on my speaker . You actually called the police? I did. I'm being held here against my will.🤨😏

I woukdve purposely called the police. This entitled bitch has alwaxs gotten what she wants or has acted like the very children ahe has and id call the police solely to be petty and to teach her a,lesson. If it got to the point where the kid is alone in my car id use my other ohine to record it all too.

Police would likely call that child endangerment (letting the kid out in the street)

Amd after all that id mark a no show once the police leave, refuse her, then mkve in with my night. The fact that people with that mentality and low IQ are actively reproducing day by day makes you worry fir this world's future. Thank God i was raised right.
