hi. im a parent too of 3. but mine r in fostercare.. the fosterparnets of my youngest daughter, r well, not nice. the 'mom' usually threatens my girl, and shouts at her. she even hits her. i have seen this when i have visited my kid.. and the 'parents' didnt know/realise ever.. even the dad' is abusing my kid. it happened in march of this yr.. i saw the whole thing.. and i have reported him but no. nothing has been done. so. its a shame that ppl who r violent etc towards kids, should be punished.. :(
