twins about 2 or 3 months old and a little toddler under 2 yrs. Each morning I would find the twins laying on a rubber mat with urine pooled under their whole bodies and heads. First thing I would do is bathe them and put dry diapers on them. I started them on solid food and the toddler would often not have anything for lunch so I would ask my mother for something from our house. The mother worked but still..... I guess neither parent had enough time in the morning to do anything for those kids. this is what overturning Roe V Wade will bring on for some people. Poverty and having children too young, a tragedy.
