I really hope she gets enough money through the gofundme to take time to get her babies back and find suitable care. My daughter and I donated. I know a lot of people will go in on her but when you don’t have a community to support, you do what’s considered dumb things to make ends meet. In a lot of settings a 10 year old has watched a 2 year old.

If they weren’t dirty or hungry, perhaps instead of arresting her, they could’ve found out her story, directed her to social services and a lawyer to collect proper child support, so she wouldn’t have to leave them alone while she worked. Not everything needs to be criminalized. She needed social services, not charges that will further mess her up if she’s got a record.

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.

I don’t know about every state, but in Texas I’ve tried to help dozens of women get social services. They are backed up in multiple states. You are told to call back every month to see if you can get on a list. In Louisiana, you have maybe an hour or two when they open JUST the waiting list, to have your name added onto it.

Some of these services don’t work with you if you have any type of employment. That’s why so many of us call it a catch-22. If you work you don’t qualify. If you qualify, it’s barely enough to get by. These things just aren’t set up how they used to be a couple decades ago. They also highly favor illegals. Again, that’s my experience in Texas, Louisiana and California.

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.
If he is, then she was 14 and he was 18 when they had their first child.

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.

Quiet as it’s kept, a lot of families had kids minding one another. When I was sick I’d be home alone at 6, because my parents worked two jobs. I knew not to answer the phone, door or touch the stove. I and countless other kids survived. It may not be right, but when times are hard you make do.

I’m thankful I’ve never had to do this. Ill never look down on someone who had to do things like this because the other parent was an unreliable jackass. Or because they had to make money. Waiting for the government to pick up the slack will leave you starving.

I don't trust the white woman who started this gfm. She wants to be in control of a situation that had nothing to do with her, if the funds raised are for shaina then give it to her, don't dictate how the money should be disbursed and to who...........

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.

Ok, got it about the stranger starting the Go Fund me.

I don't think there's anything wrong per se, with donating to a struggling mother. I just think that she should be made aware of all resources available to her and her children so that she's not so stressed. For the record, I don't think she should be charged with anything.

And shame on the father for putting her in this position.

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.

I don’t trust any of these randos opening up a Gofundme for a stranger or even extended family/friends of the recipient.

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.



ETA go to post #61 & #105 for an update
Man God bless her, she knew it was better to leave them together than with a stranger that may harm them. The fact that she even had to resort to this let’s me know the father wasn’t very active in the first place.

I suspected there was past abuse (a child at 14) and/or mental illness going on with this young lady.

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.

She wants the money.. she wants all or none of it from the creators second post. I added it.
The fact that Shaina’s willing to give up all the money speaks volumes. This white woman needs to shut it down and butt out!

Weird story. Good luck to all involved.

I think mental illness as a cause is thrown out too freely around here. Her family and his commented on the post.. It’s definitely stuff being left out.

GFM creator is giving her the money.

Either way, hopefully she betters herself and position in life.

I also emailed the newspaper that wrote about the story and told them to remove the link. I imagine story is what made the GFM popular.

I'm reading the father of the kids sister's posts right now. yeah it does seem like there is more to this story but she is more concerned about her brother looking bad than anything else. Also, it is a bad/weird situation that this mother was living with them since she was 14 and raising a baby in their house. 10 years later they are all still there? Yet the dad is supposed to be so wonderful? The mom moved out a month ago according to the sister.

If she and her family, including brother, felt there was truly some issue, they had 10 years to try to obtain sole custody of the kids.

I guess one good thing from this is that the kids were not abandoned for a long period of time. It sounds like they were only in the motel that one day and for a few hours alone.

She's just trying to provide for her kids. Childcare likely costs more than her earnings. She needs support, not criminalisation. She's being punished for being poor and having no help.

I understand your point. At minimum there’s clear dysfunction going on in this situation.

I just got caught up on all the updates and although I believe we still don't have the full story, the GFM money needs to go to Shaina or NO ONE at all.

That white lady trying to dictate who gets what of OTHER PEOPLES MONEY really pissed me off. She better keep the donation button off.

Whatever family this young lady she has surrounding ain't sh!t.

There is a issue handle it why worry about how you are portrayed when you are a grown ass adult.
WTF leaves kids alone if they have all this HELP!
So what she receives funds. We in a pandemic she works in a pizza shop how far are these funds supposed to go.
Is baby father paying support? Where he at if they all lived together. He doesn't know her daily work schedule.

This is why some Mothers choose to do it alone rather than beg family for support.

And this is why I'll always help my family and friends who are trying their best. The girl probably had family members and friends who had the mindset that they weren't going to watch her children because "it ain't their responsibility, she should've did better".

It sounds like the mom only left that household recently after living there for years.

Also, the dad of the kids went to work, came home, went to sleep, and when he woke up he realized his kids had not been dropped off yet. TBH I think the sister is leaving out a bit there too. She just said he got off work and woke up from sleep. Ok how long was he asleep before he realized his kids were missing? Maybe the mom tried to call them and couldn't get anyone to pick up who knows.

I am not willing to say either the mom or dad or any of their family are necessarily wrong. The kids wound up ok and whatever the case, they weren't alone more than a few hours of whatever her work shift was. The kids should not have been abandoned but it seems like a couple of adults dropped the ball on this.

How is the sister accusing Shaina of chasing clout when she’s not even the one who started the gofundme?

Her story isn’t making sense to me. So Shaina had a place for her kids to go, but chose to leave them in a motel? What does the family taking Shaina in have to do with this? She’s sounding like she’s coming up with a bunch of reasons as to why they deserve the money over Shaina.

If the kids are well-taken care of by their father (as she claims), then NOBODY needs the money, right?

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. And they need to make sure that EVERY dime of that gofundme goes to her and those children. My prayers go out to them.

I don’t know about every state, but in Texas I’ve tried to help dozens of women get social services. They are backed up in multiple states. You are told to call back every month to see if you can get on a list. In Louisiana, you have maybe an hour or two when they open JUST the waiting list, to have your name added onto it.

Some of these services don’t work with you if you have any type of employment. That’s why so many of us call it a catch-22. If you work you don’t qualify. If you qualify, it’s barely enough to get by. These things just aren’t set up how they used to be a couple decades ago. They also highly favor illegals. Again, that’s my experience in Texas, Louisiana and California.

Most people won't know this until they're in that situation themselves. People scream reach out for support and services but they don't realize that these places are backlogged, underfunded, understaffed etc. that people who need the support get turned away. It's not as easy as it's out to be.

Ah hell, those mugshots lead me to believe that their relationship is full of chaos and violence on the regular. That’s all I got.

Wishing them the best, also, it looks like the dad is close in age. Glad it’s not some old creep.

Sounds like a break up or attempt to leave and start over and the family is too involved. No facts but I’m inclined to side eye sister for this guilt trip/we took you in/you owe us/bµllsh!t.

She left your brother and didn’t want your family’s help for a reason. On the other hand she could have been acting irrationally. Guess we’ll never know unless the facts are made public.

Wait so he called the police for her to get locked up?There’s also an article where he got upset she pinched him and they started chasing each other with knives so their relationship is clearly dysfunctional.She’s probably tired of him and his family and trying to separate herself.What the sister is saying still won’t change my stance on feeling sorry for the girl.

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.



ETA go to post #61 & #105 & 135 for an update
In this case, I think she’s a poor single mother trying to make do with what she has..and I think the court should consider that. How did the police find out? And who did she have check on the kids hourly? She has no family? No friends? She can’t get section 8 housing?

The math says she had her first child at 14.

Her life clearly hasn't been roses. She needs help, not contempt.
I think she must had a rough life but some people choose to struggle. I know someone who had her first child at 15, normal upbringing, 2 parents in the home. She’s just a bird by heart. She’s now in her late 20s with 4 kids when she barely works. Only has a GED. She luckily has family support but still has nothing to show for herself.

Why did the dad need to call the cops? I wish Black people would stop putting the cops in our family business. He did that to be spiteful. The mom probably wanted to move on with another guy.

America was made to fail its citizens. It’s meant to keep the rich rich and the poor poorer. It’s disgusting she was arrested and will likely go to prison when she was trying to do right. Obviously the father isn’t worth a damn since he only got their children when sh!t hit the fan! And obvs her family isn’t worth sh!t either since they watched her get pregnant at 13 and there isn’t much help from them since nobody was watching the kids. Child care is WAY too expensive, it is ridiculous at this point. She needs HELP, she doesn’t need her life getting made MORE DIFFICULT. i feel bad for her

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.
It is what it is, the kids are here there is no turning back time. So all of what you’re saying is good to preach to your own kids/other children you know. Not to a person already struggling.
