Rashondra Walters likes to party
As mom goes partying, home alone son calls 911:
Woman arrested after child calls 911:
Bradenton boy left home alone calls 911:
25-year-old Rashondra Waiters…wait…that’s a woman? Ok, I’ll take your word for it.
Anyway, 25-year-old Rashondra Waiters of Bradenton, Florida was arrested for leaving her 7, 4 and 1-year-old kids home alone while she was allegedly out at a night club. Police say that oxycontin and knives were in the reach of the children. The 7-year-old called 911. Smart kid.
Walters’ defense? She is believed to have said that she is a single mother and confused.
Confused is calling one of your kids by your other kid’s name. It is not leaving your kids at home while you get your party on.
Single moms, I’m sure you have a word or two for Ms. Walters. Let’s hear it.
Thanks to Bridget for the tip.

She is a very good person. There is always 2 sides to a story.
October 18th, 2009 at 8:25 am
Yeah, because good people always leave their babies home alone while they go out and party….eejit.
October 18th, 2009 at 11:22 am
Well she’s right there are two sides, the other side is that this person had friends and family who very much should have been aware that she was an unfit mother either due to mental problems, drug addiction, or just plain being a crappy excuse for a mom and they did NOTHING to protect these kids!
And if she did leave them with another person then she is responsible for leaving them with someone that would abandon them; popping out a kid doesn’t make you a qualified babysitter. And it still doesn’t explain why there were knives and dangerous pharmaceuticals around the kids.
Either the kids were at Rashondra’s house or they were at this other mysterious babysitters house -so either her own house is that problematic AND this other woman didn’t report it and I presume had her own kids there (I’m assuming that’s why she went to the hospital). So this “other mother” is guilty of endangering her own kids by bringing them into a house with knives and drugs within their reach. For not at least moving the drugs (I’m sure all the parents reading this have at least one story of moving other people’s drugs out of kid’s reach when visiting with their kids). For leaving Roshandra’s kids alone.
If this was at the “other mother”‘s house than I can’t even marginally explain (not excuse) Roshandra’s actions saying she was a drug addict and didn’t know what she was doing. She should have known this woman was a drug user, and you should make sure that the house you leave your kids at is SAFE. Particularly if you have kids under the age of 6 or 7, and definitly if you have kids under 3 and the other person doesn’t (even parents can forget what a 2 year old is going to stick in their mouth)
So the other “side” of the story is all the other people who failed these kids.

Bravo, mystic.

That was “bashing tards” sheesh… My boss just diverted my attention away and typed all kinds of shit. Back to work. Love you all!
September 29th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
April….go ahead and slap your boss for me, willya? How dare he take your focus off of PBB?!? who does he think he is, anyway?
September 29th, 2009 at 1:43 pm
Ya. NO shit. I am still dealing with the shit that was going on Friday (did I tell you). I need a vacation.
September 29th, 2009 at 11:22 am
As I’ve stated before, I don’t comment very often, but I do read them every day. So being compared to April feels all warm and fuzzy.
September 29th, 2009 at 11:44 am
Well, being April’s BFF, I can confirm that she is all warm….but the fuzzy part doesn’t apply – she shaves, lol.
September 29th, 2009 at 12:24 pm
I made JJ feel all warm and fuzzy?? Maybe NOW I can score a reach around.
Angel, I freaking love you! The fact that you know I shave makes me all giddy and shit.
Hey JJ – I want to give you two thumbs up for being a single parent and not being featured on this site. I know your job isn’t an easy one… Keep up the good work.
Now let’s knock off all of this fluffy shit and start badhing the tards!!
September 29th, 2009 at 10:43 am
Supermom’s going to have a superbreakdown soon, but we’ll manage. That’s what sick leave’s for, right?
September 29th, 2009 at 10:58 am
Yeah, jj, I have a house full of kids myself, and I spend the majority of my time either carting them around or cleaning up after them. I am married, but like a lot of men, my hubby seems to think I don’t need any ‘me’ time. This blog is my ‘me’ time. I can stop by my computer in between activities, or loads of laundry, and post a few comments.
September 29th, 2009 at 11:19 am
I bitch alot, but I love doing most of it. I still haven’t been able to get excited about my 9 yo playing full contact, tackle football (they’re sooooo little), but I’m trying.
September 29th, 2009 at 10:42 am
Sorry, but this is one of those things that pisses me off. I’m a single parent, and I rock! It’s hard as hell, and I have NO time to myself, but my kids are happy, healthy and involved in their schools and community. That may not be the case if I wansn’t driving them all over the damn city 6 days a week, team mom for little league, cheering at EVERY SINGLE GAME, etc, etc. And I work a full time job. And my house is clean (not spotless, but if anybody was to stop over, I’d let em in the door). It’s hard work and I do it with VERY little help from my ex, their father. So when assholes like this come to light, I take very personal offense to their excuses because there is no excuse. It’s your job as a parent to make sure your children become productive members of society, and if it takes a little hard work to make it happen, so be it. Not to say I don’t have my days, hell I took this weekend off and said “no, take the bus” to every single request for transportation this weekend. But I was at home cooking, cleaning and caring for my children. Because that’s my job as their mother.
September 29th, 2009 at 9:41 am
Yeah, right. Selling pussy is not a real job. Go get your GED, learn how to spell (it’s know, not no), get some counseling and take care of your children, you lying waste of oxygen. You need the shit slapped out of you for blaming your mother. Grow up and take responsibility for your own actions. You’re the one responsible for those children, and if getting fucked up and putting some penis in you is more important than your children, go somewhere and die.
September 29th, 2009 at 9:44 am
Be still my heart….
September 29th, 2009 at 10:44 am
Admit it April….YOU are jj! Lol. You two must have been twins separated at birth.
jj – just in case you don’t know what I mean by that – you’re doing a GREAT job! *still laughing*
September 29th, 2009 at 11:16 am
Thanks, I try.
September 28th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
Rashondra: I don’t think posting anything on this site is gonna help your cause any.
My opinion:
Some people are better off just staying home with their kids, especially if they are single mothers…I am a stay at home mom lol and I pretty much dont go anywhere even though I have a husband to help me out, things like this happen far too often. Why the hell would you leave knives and oxycontin out within your kids reach…come on now…fricken common sense people. For the love of god. Use a little from time to time…especially if you got kids.
September 28th, 2009 at 7:20 pm
Common sense?? but…but…but……. If these asshats had any sense at all we wouldn’t have this site where we all gather to love the children they have no regard for.
September 28th, 2009 at 5:56 pm
I don’t get welfare I work hard for my money. I left my kids with my mother but she left em there to go to the hospital I didn’t no.
September 28th, 2009 at 6:28 pm
EARWORM!!!
She works hard for the money. So hard for it honey….
September 28th, 2009 at 5:42 pm
kids’
September 28th, 2009 at 5:41 pm
Good mothers don’t use their kids welfare money to go find a new babydaddy at the club, slut.
September 28th, 2009 at 1:54 pm
I’m a good mother.
September 28th, 2009 at 2:25 pm
Yeah….that’s why you were arrested. All good mothers leave their kids home alone to go and get their drink on. Hell, I think I’ll nominate you for mom of the year award. Not really…..
September 26th, 2009 at 2:38 pm
This could have ended so much worse. I’m 27 and I have 2 small kids. I am married to their father but for a short period of time we were separated. I only went out if I had a babysitter I could trust. It amazes me how selfish some women can be. You’d have to have a serious drug/ alcohol problem if you could do this. Poor babies. Hopefully they’ll never have to endure this again.
September 26th, 2009 at 9:07 am
I am a newly single mother (separated 6 months ago) and i have been confused and stressed to my eye balls, but I would never ever do this to my child.
for fucks sake confused my arse this woman is a waste of space.
September 26th, 2009 at 1:02 am
This is too sad for words, as are many of these posts… using the excuse of being a single parent is loathesome. We need more education and easier access to birth control in this country. Especially for people like this.
September 28th, 2009 at 11:58 am
Unfortunately, Tascha, the people who need birth control the most (people like these), are the ones who would be the least likely to use it; even if the BC providers offered to do home visits, or call every day to remind them to take their anti-baby pills. They are too lazy to take care of their kids, and they are even too lazy to take birth control to prevent conception.
Also, as far as I know…..birth control is easier to obtain than cigarettes, for teens and young adults. Access to it is not the problem – they can get it at any school or health clinic – often for free.
September 25th, 2009 at 1:09 pm
The sad thing is that she probably already has the kids back or will soon, and I can bet that the one who called the cops will pay for that action. Also, doesn’t she kind of look like Geraldine? “What you see is what you get,”.
September 25th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
“Confused” = high

Not a single parent but wow is she stupid. Her 7 year old is smarter than her. Let’s just hope these poor kids turn out better than her. She obviously could care less about them if she leaves them like that not to mention with drugs and weapons in reach. You really have to be a complete moron, and she has 3 kids?? Why?? Easier said than done, I know, but if partying is your thing then don’t have kids. God forbid she’d have to stay home and interact and parent her children.
September 25th, 2009 at 10:49 am
UGHHHHH its scum like this who give us single moms a bad name!!! I would NEVER leave my children home alone like that!!! My bet is also that she is just using that as an excuse, THINKING she might get some sympathy…. YEAH RIGHT!! no sympathy for that beeyotch.
September 25th, 2009 at 10:22 am
I have been a single parent for the past five years, and have never once even thought of leaving the most precious things in my life home alone, at night. Yes, I sometimes leave them home alone when they don’t have school and I have to work, but they’re 14(15 in 2 months), 13(14 in January) and 8(9 in January). And my mother and stepfather, who is retired and home during the day, live right next door to me. This stupid baby machine is using being a single mother as an excuse for going out, getting fucked up and getting laid. I take it as a personal insult that she woul use being a single parent as an excuse to be a bad mother. Who’s decision was it to have three children out of wedlock? I wasn’t married to the father of my children, but we were in a serious long term relationship from the get-go, and when our “surprises from God” came along, we grew up and took care of our responsibilities. Not to say that it’s easy taking care of three children on your own (hell, I was ready to smack the hell out of my oldest just yesterday), but when you have children, THEY COME FIRST! ALWAYS! WITHOUT QUESTION! The sooner these incubators take those three little things, and apply it to their lives, the less we’ll hear about these poor babies dying and being hurt, physically and emotionally.
Sorry, I don’t comment very often, on any site, and when I do I tend to go off a little.
September 25th, 2009 at 10:04 am
So, who was going to change the 1 y/o’s diaper? Who was going to feed them? Oh wait… they had oxycontin nearby. And, should there have been an apple nearby, they had access to knives to slice it up.
I’ve had more than 20 kids in my house and a husband whose job often sent him away. Also have my own demanding job. Never, ever have I been so confused that I left the children at home alone. But, maybe that’s because I don’t have a ready supply of oxycontin.
September 25th, 2009 at 7:45 am
If you can’t afford a proper babysitter, you don’t go out. End of story. If she had left them to go to work it still would have been wrong, but at least I would have had SOME sympathy. This is just ridiculous.
What’s sad is that I guarantee she will keep these kids, and eventually she will have some penis in there abusing them.
September 25th, 2009 at 8:38 am
I wouldn’t even have any sympathy for her if she HAD left them alone to go to work. That’s still no excuse. I have taken my child to work with me before, and I have lost a job because I couldn’t find a sitter. But I never even considered leaving any of my children home alone. No job is worth risking your child’s life….if you lose your McD’s job, there’s always Krystal’s. Somebody’s ALWAYS hiring.
And leaving them alone to go party is ABSOLUTELY inexcusable!
September 25th, 2009 at 7:35 am
Well…that’ll teach her to teach her kids about home safety, now won’t it?
I agree about the confusion issue as well, Trench. I’ve gotten so exasperated with my kids before, that I went through all six of their names, and then started on the pet names, too. But I’ve never ‘forgotten’ one (or in this case, three) at home, just so I could go party.
I may not be a single mom now; but I was for the first 3 years of my oldest daughter’s life, and for 3 years after I divorced my first husband (I had two kids then). Even then I never got ‘confused’ enough to leave my kids at home alone. This woman is an eejit.
