This is sad. She needs support not to be criminalized. I respect that she’s working a legit job. I hope she finds support that she needs.

Yea, she shouldn't be in jail. Those kids were given to their dad, but why wasn't he watching them anyways. Why was she in a motel?

Also she had a child as a child. I feel for her. She has a 10 year old. I'm guessing state law says you have to be older to watch a child because my parents def left me home with my sis before.

The said thing is, she left her children to WORK.
---Not shop, club, or go out. The whack boyfriends are killing the children and some of their fathers can't be trusted. She more than likely doesn't get paid enough to cover childcare but she's being punished. The system is set up poorly & the wrong people are on the benefitting end.
This is it right here

A 10 year old should not be left alone with a 2 year old. I’m sorry but that’s too much responsibility for a 10 year old. I don’t agree with her having criminal charges but I also don’t agree with siblings being surrogate parents.



I went on the mother’s page & seems like your comment is correct.

I’ve said this in multiple threads , as someone working in the system - they criminalize poverty . So many misdemeanors are simple people getting punished for being poor and having no support
Facts! And they’re always willing to see the punishment all the way through for Black people. No compassion.

Welp!
Can somone made a new go fundme for the mother only?
She should herself. I can’t believe they changed the direction of the fundraiser, knowing she’s gonna have legal costs now.
I knew it!! I’m reporting that GoFundMe as fraud. F that!
I reported the fundraiser and I encourage everyone to do the same!!!

Thank you!

How are people making it with kids working at a pizza shop and paying for a motel?? Regular degular child care is rent/mortgage in a month in America. I don’t get it .. since they arrested her and took the damn kids she might as well had did PUA’s!!

This woman needs help not jail. Where was this family that has all this input when this young mother was living in a hotel and working at a pizza shop? And I thought CPS was supposed to provide resources to families like this, not tear them apart. I hope she gets a legitimate GFM because I would like to help this woman. It seems like she wants to do the right thing but doesn't know how.

If they are going to arrest her, they need to find the children’s father and arrest him too, wherever he may be. They are his kids as well. He could have and should have been watching them.

Probably by running up credit cards and making the minimum monthly payment.

when i was that age, my mom left me home alone so she could go to work too. honestly, i feel like having the wrong person watching your child can lead to abuse, so i wish people would judge on a case by case basis.

Think about it. If the GFM is refocused to just the girls, then whichever parent has custody of the girls will likely be the one to receive and spend the funds as they see fit.

I don't want to pass judgments when we don't have the full story but this is so shady. Where was the family when she needed help with the kids? All of a sudden money is involved and they come out of hiding.

The mom, who was found working at a pizza shop, told officers that she usually has someone check in on her children every hour while she is at work.

Shania Bell
A Liberty Township woman has pleaded not guilty to child endangering after police say they found her two daughters left alone in a Belmont Avenue motel room Thursday evening.


Acting on a tip, officers found a 10-year-old girl and her two-year-old sister in a room at the Motel Six after 6 p.m.


The older child said that her mother was at work and expected her to be back by 10 p.m.


The mom, 24-year-old Shaina Bell, who was found working at a pizza shop, told officers that she usually has someone check in on her children every hour while she is at work.


Bell was booked into the county jail on two counts of child endangering.


The children were turned over to their father.


Now free on bail after a hearing in Girard Municipal Court, Bell is scheduled for another court hearing in April.

Community support for Bell has been building and a Go-Fund-Me has been created to support Bell and her children.

Liberty Police: Kids left in motel as mom works in pizza shop





24 with a 10 yr old? I need to have more info on the father. How was he able to get the children so quickly but couldn't watch them while she was at work? I hope she gets the resources she needs.
Would be good to update the op to reflect the latest info on the gofundme and where the money’s really going:
I just checked her Facebook and this is what she has to say.

My dad would leave me and my sisters at the playground in the afternoon for a few hours while he went on his 2nd job to help Provide for us.

Granted this was wrong and dangerous since the playground was somewhat secluded, he thought he was doing the right thing.

These young parents need to be educated and encouraged to use common sense.

I admire her for taking the precautions and working to provide for her kids, that’s the first mugshot that made me tear up because you can see in her eyes that she was trying... I hope she gets support. She’s too young.

So sad she is all alone not a family member to help her out. She needs support. I wonder why the grandma if she is alive doesn't watch the kids for a few hours. This world is cold hearted

Because the grandma is most likely to get covid and die. You cannot always put others before your health. If her grandma if she is alive helps her and dies from covid .... she back at square one plus everyone blaming her for grandma's death..

Struggling with 1 child then you turn around and have another.

Don’t I know it ... but she had her 2nd child after a few years. My parents had me and my 3 sisters one after the other and they couldn’t provide for us. I guess they had us for the government support or something, it was stressful.

I started working at 15 to help with the bills and they always tried to guilt me at how much they suffered for me when the true victim was me and my damn sisters.

This is from the woman who made the GFM. She posted under the moms post.


Just wanted to clear the air a bit. I started the fundraiser and for the first few hours the purpose of the fundraiser was to get money to directly help Shaina and the kids. After $2,500 was raised and after learning more about the situation, I felt the need to change the nature of the gofundme to make sure the kids are taken care of and have everything they need. The initial $2,500 would go to exactly what people were donating to, to Shaina herself. The remaining money would be used, as specified in the gofundme update, to get the kids everything they need, stock up on toiletries, groceries etc. and that

I was just trying to look out for the kids, which in turn helps Shaina out, too. I have deactivated the donations per shainas request and I’m looking into how to refund everyone’s donations. I hope Shaina changes her mind and takes the help, $2,500 is a deposit and first months rent on a house and then some! Plus her kiddos would be set up with anything they need.

None of this was set up as a scam, just a regular mom here trying to do what I can to help while also looking out for the people who have donated. At the end of the day, all of the money/donations would be helping to support the kids.

I’m working on doing what Shaina has asked and figuring out how to return the donations.

The father fks & impregnates 14 yr olds, so no, he shouldn't be watching them.

Do we know the age of the father or are folks assuming he's some old creep? For all we know he could've been 14 too. My friend's parents had their first when they were both 13.

It sounds like he's the father to both kids so I'm assuming it was some teenage mess that was off and on.

After seeing a lot of gofundme situations go wrong I can understand why the mom doesn't want this attention or money. I know it is strange. Hopefully there is someone in her life who can help her out with childcare from here out.

ETA: I see the issue is with the particular GFM creator.

She wants the money.. she wants all or none of it from the creators second post. I added it.

She most likely wants it shut down because this woman is ruling over the GFM with an iron fist. First it was for Shania, then it wasn't. Then it was for the kids with the father receiving the funds. Now it's for Shania again when her account got reported.

She is not in anyway involved and changes who she believes should receive the funds at a drop of a hat. Shania even contacted GFM and they wouldn't allow her to receive any of the funds.

It was especially disingenuous for her to take Shania off the fundraiser as a recipient but keep her name and story so people would continue to donate. Almost every single donor commented about wanting to support Shania herself.

ok personally I do not trust these white folks who create these gofundme's in situations like this. They act like they themselves are trustees of the money and know what is best for the person and want to give it to them in piecemeal or sometimes they skim off the top.

I don't even think random people should be allowed to start GFMs for others.

Me either. It’s also not her place to dictate where the money goes. She needs to return everyone’s money and the mom should start her own.

Maybe the mom can enroll in online classes or something to better herself. If she has two kids.. she should of had a decent stimulus check.

Idk.. good luck to them though.

I'm sorry you went through that but speaking on this girl, I doubt she was in any stable place to have a second child at 22. It doesn't matter how many years are in between. If you're still in a bad place in life you should reconsider bringing more innocent kids into the world. Unless she was already doing well for herself at 22 with an 8 yr old then things all of the sudden went left after her second kid.

ok. but the kids are here now. all of that 'don't bring kids into the world' talk is pointless.

I'm not trying to come down on this young mother, but there are plenty of resources (at least where I live) for single parents. She should have been had low income housing, child care, and everything else. If I missed these details, then I apologize, but Go Fund me shouldn't be on the table.
A stranger started a go fund me. There’s nothing wrong with us wanting to donate to a struggling mother. We don’t know what her situation was pre COVID.

The money spent on a criminal case against her should be spent on assisting her w/ basic support. The people who fight the hardest to force people to give birth also fight the hardest against a basic support system.

Most formal childcare is banker's hours. It's for people who work 9-5 jobs w/ a little on each side for the commute. It's much harder to get stable childcare now during the pandemic w/ distancing & disruptions because workers are catching COVID or having close enough contacts to need to quarantine.

How old is the father? Why wasn't he providing care while she was working in the 1st place?

F-ck anybody trying to GoFundMe to benefit themselves off her issues. It's one of the reasons I rarely trust GoFundMes w/ complicated situations, esp. if they are not hosted by the recipient.

Youngstown police say parents threatened each other with knives while holding baby | WKBN.com


Police investigating a fight in Youngstown said they arrived to find a woman holding a knife in one hand and a baby in the other.

It happened early Sunday morning at a house in the 300 block of Marmion Ave., according to a police report.

Police said Shaina Bell dropped the knife when officers arrived. She told police that her boyfriend, James Brown, also had a weapon, according to the report.

Police said Shaina Bell dropped the knife when officers arrived. She told police that her boyfriend, James Brown, also had a weapon, according to the report.

Police said Brown was found with a box cutter in his pocket.

He told police that Bell pinched him and said he told her, “If you keep putting your hands on me, I’m going to put my hands back on you,” the report stated.

Brown said at that time, Bell went to the kitchen and grabbed a knife. He told police that she began to thrust it at him, as if she was going to stab him, the report stated.


Police said Bell told officers that she tried to get away from Brown, but he followed her around the house. She said he pulled a knife on her, so she grabbed another knife to defend herself.

Bell told police that Brown threatened to slice her neck, according to the report.

Police arrested Bell and Brown, and they were each charged with domestic violence.

They confiscated the knife and box cutter.

The report does not specify what happened to the baby.
