I have a genuine question as I am a first time mom myself now with a newborn. I've always been a clean freak and on the heavy hoarders episode my biggest question is how did gage not get sick in those living conditions? I understand a messy home when you have a child as I've loosened up myself as of recent. But my wor... | r/1000lbsisters | post | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-19-08 |
He’s like the 4th or 5th generation Slaton to be raised in such conditions. He probably did get sick. However, as this family repeatedly displays, human bodies are resilient. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Amy probably was raised the same way, so the cycle continues. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |

My guess get used to your sanitary environment, he's been exposed since birth so he's not as fragile as another baby would be in these conditions | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
I don’t understand how CPS was never called or never investigated them. They have literal footage of how deplorable their living conditions are! Their house was absolutely disgusting. Even after the “big clean”. I know they were raised in the same conditions but that’s no excuse to have your babies crawling around in f... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |

They live in a town of a few hundred people in the middle of nowhere. Government involvement isn’t likely. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Yes I agree. I am totally not a neat freak but my house is clean. I use the “Roseanne” line. Sorry it’s messy we live here.
I’m of the mind kids need some germs to build their immunity. But by that I mean like not over doing it on the hand sanitizer or never letting them get dirty - not living in FILTH.
Also I unde... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
It would probably have to be really bad, or seen by a mandatory reporter to be called in. Small towns where everybody knows everybody i doubt their living conditions were a secret before it was aired. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
I live in a decent sized suburb of Lexington (Kentucky’s second biggest city) and my wife is a school teacher. CPS has a pretty high threshold for taking action. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
This is most likely the answer.
All of the agencies like that have too many cases for not enough workers. As sad as it is they basically have to “triage” any complaints. And the more out of in the country they are the less likely they are to get complaints or investigate. Sad facts. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
You would expect that if they play outside barefoot. But when it’s inside 😳 | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
There’s also just no good answer. Take the kid away, dump them into foster care where they’re probably gonna have an even worse time, and spend a lot of tax money paying the foster family.
Instead they’ll let the biological parents get by with anything short of real physical abuse. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
You make an excellent point.
Rarely is foster care going to be better except in extreme cases of neglect and abuse where the child’s life could be at stake.
I have sadly seen first hand how bad the system is about “reuniting” kids with their bio parents. Had a little boy (2) whose parents were abusive so he was rem... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
20+ years in childcare and education. My wife would seem cold hearted if you didn’t really know her. The shit she sees and deals with daily….
Once in all those years it almost broke her. She had a 9 year old foster kid in her class who stole another kids cell phone and made some videos of a nature that I’d rather ... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Amy may have been raised worse and is trying to do better. If this is the case, she’s doing a great job in her own eyes by going above and beyond the standard she was raised in. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Both parents are also heavy smokers and and do it inside around the kids. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
How did they not notice the smell of a decaying mouse?! | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Ugh it breaks my heart how messed up the foster care system is. I always wanted to be a foster parent but I know I wouldn’t be able to handle the emotional turmoil of seeing a child returned to their abusive bio parents. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Omg. Give your wife a hug for me! You don’t even have to tell her it’s from me. Just hug that woman.
My heart goes out to her because I GET IT! We all hear horrible stories but it hits way different when you experience it first hand. It doesn’t go away. It sticks with you.
I also worked in a school after childcare.... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
I think she is trying to do better. Not everyone would spend money on a professional house cleaner. Generational hoarding is hard to stop doing, speaking as a 4th generation hoarder myself. Also, I always got the sense Michael never helped clean the house, and I'm sure it's harder for her bc she doesn't have good visi... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
I have no idea.
That just pisses me off because as I said I’ve had mice. There are SO MANY signs that they have invaded. They had to ignore all the feces and the shit they chewed on long enough for it to die and then STILL not even take care of it.
It’s not something you might get a whiff of now & then either. Anyt... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |

I’ve got news for you about what CPS considers uninhabitable. It’s a mess but not enough to get involved. I turned my mom in at 15 and she had 7 kids, was a tweaker and my step dad was an abusive alcoholic.

He probably does get sick. I’m from KY and unfortunately a lot of people live like that. It can sort of be seen as a cultural thing | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
You can’t always help or prevent mice/roaches but you can at least clean up the dead body. I could never just chill with a dead mouse laying on my floor 🤮🤮🤮 | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |
Fwiw you don’t always notice right away. For like a week we thought someone was spilling coffee grounds on the counter, and the pasta bag that they chewed through, well we didn’t think of mice, and thought someone ripped it open that way when they cooked. HOWEVER the moment we saw it run through the kitchen we were in ... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-20-08 |

Yes! You are just like me. And you’re right. I’m sure I didn’t notice right away. Especially they hit like the back of the pantry where you don’t get into all the time. But yeah THE MINUTE YOU DO…

True story - I have 4 cats (all rescues with all of their claws intact) ranging from 1 yo - 13 yo … and I still ended up with mice in one of my kitchen cabinets!! Either the mice were extremely stealthy or my cats are extremely lazy. Or both. Had to use trap and release gadgets since my felines are sleeping on the job. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |

I have 2 cats. One is a house gremlin who hides under my bed and comes out to feed at night. My other is a chonk. He’s a chonk that used to be very good at catching mice.

No. House gremlin just hides so... | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |
I think they are used to living like this. They think it’s normal and funny. It’s absolutely gross and I am surprised any of them have not got some sort of infection.

😂😂😂 good point. Prob also why they didn’t smell the mouse. The litter box odor covered it up. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |
I’ve heard stories like yours so I was really afraid I’d get a cat like that. Especially since I wasn’t big on cats back and only wanted it for a mouser.
The good news is mice free since they got here.
Even better news I love them either way. ❤️ | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |

Thankfully we haven seen any since the cats. Still did traps and they’ll just got old.

I think his little orange brain cell realized he doesn’t need to catch the mouse for food since he has humans that will make sure he is fed and if he needs more food he can steal from the house gremlin. Which is why he is a chonk. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |

Theres something to be said about being raised in that environment from the get go
Children who grow up on farms have stronger immune systems because of the exposure to pathogens from an early age

Thats true. Kids raised around parents who don’t use aerosol and unnatural cleaning agents also have lower levels of lymphoma. There is something to be said for not cleaning obsessively. But theres also something to be said for keeping the clutter and bacteria at bay. | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |
I thought the exact same thing. Anything warm blooded that dies, decomposes and starts to smell horrible. To be honest, it wouldn’t surprise me if their house smelled like that all the time and they didn’t notice | r/1000lbsisters | comment | r/1000lbsisters | 2024-21-08 |
