Apparently no one told Virginia Neel Blaker you aren't supposed to put carbonated beverages in a sippy cup. They didn't tell her not to serve beer to a toddler either. Oh yeah, and not to do it front of the police.
The New Mexico mom hit the trifecta in the competition for Dopiest Mom in America this week when a group of undercover officers were at her home to buy drugs from Neel-Blaker and her husband, James Blaker. First officers said they watched her give the couple's 18-month-old daughter a sip of beer from a can. Then she grabbed the baby girl's sippy cup and filled 'er up - "to make the baby sleep."
Perhaps she read Brett's post last week asking if anyone out there really thinks it's a good idea to give a 4-year-old a brewski? The cops said previous purchases of heroin and marijuana at the house, plus her offers to have sex with them for $100 apiece, suddenly took a backseat to the child abuse in front of them. Gee, you mean a mom who trafficks heroin out of her family's home isn't mother of the year material?
The little girl has been taken into custody by New Mexico authorities while her parents are in jail. At least one of us will be sleeping better.
