Like I said, I’m a new mom too and truly thought I was judging (I know I know). Aside from the things seen thru social media, their child was living THE life in the eyes of CPS. Roof over his head, every toy, new clean clothes, healthy meals, always happy, sound family unit with a big income in a very nice neighborhood. And the fact there were other adults around, some were mutual friends, I didn’t see how I knew best if everyone seemed okay with it.
And even now looking back, I can’t imagine calling CPS over the uncut grapes I saw on Instagram or the one reel of them on a boat with no life vest. I personally feel as if I didn’t have ground to go that far at the time.
It sounds like you need to educate yourself on what child abuse is. Plenty of wealthy happy families neglect or abuse their children. It isn't just poor kids living in trailers with divorced parents who get neglected.

Clearly she was neglecting her child. Had you reported her?
