She never reported her daughter missing. That is a HUGE point.

[Philosophia_Tigres]

She never reported her missing, she probably a few years after cleaned herself up, but was ashamed and afraid. She wanted to thank the couple who took her child, I hope she dropped charges unless that’s a federal thing and unavoidable

[samiam]

Kidnapping aside, I’m glad they took her. They saved her and possibly did better than the state was gonna do for her had they called Cps instead. And the mother understood too. I’m glad she’s gotten herself together and is willing to try

[sapphirewingthefurrycritic]

I thought this was gonna be bad. Not really. If you were gonna leave your kid outside for hours and hours while you got strung out on drugs then you shouldn't be a parent.

[iramorsnox]

I think it’s nice that the biological mother realized that the couple saved her child’s life and didn’t go on a self-entitled and selfish rant about taking her daughter. Though, I would understand if she still felt that way, as long as she still realizes that the final product was the salvage of her daughter’s life.
Still, I hope they decide on having a shared custody situation. She should still have a chance of building that relationship if that’s what they all agree on.

[morganbarfield]

When she kept saying “I’m sorry, I’m sorry” I wanted to reach through the phone and hug this angel. She didn’t do this out of malice or from a woman who was a great mom and loved her kids, they weren’t “kidnappers” they saw a beautiful infant and they rescued her and gave her a wonderful life and an infinite amount of love. If they wouldn’t have rescued her, that little girl would have been physically, mentally, and emotionally abused. I mean she saved her daughters life, she was always meant to be their daughter.

[theminisimmer]

I see no bad people here. The "kidnappers" were kind to take a child in, the bio mother cleaned her act and was not angry at them, but thankful for saving her child's life.

Sometimes your kidnap parents can be better than your real parents

[Farmergirlonlyy]

It wasn’t a kidnap.. it was a rescue and that baby has every right to feel the way she felt but the mother understood everything.

[MissNayNay]

So even though it’s just a show… the fact that the mother had appreciation for what the couple did is amazing. She knew she was not fit at the moment to care for her, they saw that and made a choice they knew was legally wrong, but morally right. Loved this episode ❤️❤️

[MrsKhamillionaire]

CPS and Foster Care are not all they are cracked up to be. Sometimes they are much worse.

[BlastFromThePastTheGoodOldDays]

rather than admit kidnapping
Why didn't they just say the mother agreed to let them watch over the child and just never asked for her back?
She would have been too strung out to remember making a deal or not

[Tottosmile]

Even with the circumstances it's absolutely wrong to take Gabi away from the people who raised her in my opinion. They're perfectly capable parents and staying with them is likely what's best for her.

[jasperspearl]

I actually know a family who was in a situation like this. All they had to do was ask for permission, get it in writing, and it was no big deal.

[R.F.]

What's right isn't always legal. (And what's legal isn't always right.) This couple might not have acted within the bounds of the law, but what they did was absolutely the right thing.

[angelrios]

There's no way, as a family court judge, I could hear of this couple being sentenced to jail time. The child was critically neglected, and would have floundered in the system, had she even made it that far.

The couple, whilst they technically broke the law, did not cause net harm.

[ACAB.forcutie]

They didn't do the legal thing, they did the right thing.

[Jeve]

HOUSE never would have snitched, he would have thought outside of the box.

[DosagePosage]

If they didn't take her, she very well could have died. CPS probably wouldn't have helped either. It's sad that they called it kidnapping, but they saved her life

[umasvlogsanddisabilityreso]

I’m glad the kidnapping was well-intentioned and it benefited/saved the girl’s life but they should have called CPS and foster to adopt while they prepare to go to court
