THIS IS INSANE, This seemed like the girl was planning on kidnapping there daughters by making it seem like they were hers the cribs and everything! The first step was to steal photos and making up storys and editing them, and framing them and the second was to kidnap them and maybe nobody would notice that they weren't hers! She needs to be arrested! If this continued it would be a disaster!.

Definitely not the fault of the parents, but I also think it's not a good idea to post your children all over social media. It's the same idea as a tourist wearing flashy jewelry and clothing in a country that is known for targeting tourists. Is it the tourists fault for getting mugged? Definitely not. But people need to be aware that the world is not a nice, safe place. It's dangerous, and certain things put a target in your back. I won't post my kids on social media, but I also won't put anything from my private life online.
That woman, Ashley is crazy. And April is those kind of moms who ALWAYS post their kids. Love them smm 🥰
Kidnapping your own or someone else's child is pure evil. Kidnapping a child is worse than neglecting or abusing a child. Someone can serve up to 14 - 16 years in prison for this.

Posting images of under age children on Publix platforms is negligence putting their safety at risk. Parents should be prosecuted for this.
Posting them in frames all over the house?!?!?! Now THAT is stalking for sure!
Mother: I posted a couple of photos here and there Production: You sure it was just a couple...
Really? No crime in stealing photos? That's something that should've been added to a crime list.
Theres someone doing something almsot identical to my friend at the moment. A man has made over 10 instagram accounts in less than a year, completely dedicated to photos of my friends toddler daughter, pretending to be the mother and occasionally her daughter. Hes even been sharing photos of other children in her family he can find photos of. "Digital kidnapping" sounds crazy at first but its terrifying to the people affecred by it, especially when the people doing these things are able to dodge laws just because hes not standing outside their home with a steak knife.

At a certain point, you'd think they'd make their Facebook profiles private or stop posting photos of the girls. Like this is the kind of thing parents warn teens about. Once you post something online, you lose all control of it. It'll be passed around the internet with all kinds of people looking at it as long as the internet exists.

This is a prime example of the dangers of posting you’re kids on the internet, whether it’s for innocent memories and giggles, remember the world is a dangerous place, it’s only takes one weirdo for your kids photos to be used for malicious purposes
Don't put pictures of your children on social media.
Reminds me of the movie Fear when he takes the family photo without her knowing, takes it home, cuts the dad’s face out and puts his own in its place. She is dangerous, and should be monitored somehow.
If the kids were older it would be considered a crime though...
@eloiserussell7339

Actually, no, it wouldn't. Stealing photos on a public social media platform isn't seen as illegal because they put the photos out for public viewing. Ultimately, that's why nobody has done anything to Ashley in this regard. The only way it would be illegal is if the image has an official copyright. It's sad but true.
Don’t post your life on the internet and if you do, make it private to your close friends and family only. Simple. If you think your children can be digitally kidnapped then digitally protect them better.

Her kids are adorable

The new trend I have seen is share your pictures of your kids but put an emoji on them. It keeps those who follow you just to follow you curious about your life but don’t know what your babies look like. I am not a mom yet but if I feel the need to share I will only be doing emoji pictures but printing out pictures like the 90’s and send real pictures my family can physically have to put on their fridges instead of online where anyone can access them.
Thankfully 😅 the world knows her based on this going viral, we know she’s insane 🤣.

If someone was stealing your children's photos,why keep posting them on a site that's open to anyone? Surely all adults know not to randomly post pictures of your children all over the internet?
Keep your children off social media.
That's why you should never put pictures up on social media because you just don't know who's hands there falling into you can still be a proud mum without photo bombing on social media too ...
Why oh why post pictures of your babies on social media? Your settings must be on “public” for a stranger to steal them. You are putting your children at risk. There are some real sick people in this world!
That’s creepy asf 😳
What a sick person to do such a thing
My friend and her husband had someone do this to their daughter. Creepy AF!
You can’t put tons of photos of your kids on-line because people are crazy and you never know. What’s more important, protecting your kids or getting attention on FB? The mother is definitely the victim and it’s not her fault but you have to use your best judgment because people are INSANE!
Beautiful babies
My daughter was digitally kidnapped. They need to make this illegal.
Keep. Your. Kids. Offline. When you realized your kid’s pics were being stolen why did you post “hundreds more”?!? These parents failed their daughters when they kept posting their daughters online for their own narcissistic needs.
I'd have put a stop to it. I would have been arrested, but I would have put an end to that real quick. Thank God these people are such loving and devoted parents!

Moral of the story... Don't put your private life on the internet.
This is what happens when you post photos on a Facebook group. Why not just keep your photos for yourself and your immediate family? If not, your ego will get your photos stolen by weirdos like the psycho on the show.
They are beautiful I would not let them out of my site until this women is jailed.
How can you put photos of other people’s children in your home-
Dont post pictures of your daughter on internet. Just dont do that, do they even want to be on pictures on the internet? dont.

What a Steeler
Parents need to reconsider posting pictures of their children. No posting at all. Not family either. Why an open profile for all to see.
Didn't Facebook had the option to just share pictures with your friends back then?
“Don’t get to seem them hopes that changes VERY soon….” Yo what??!??
I realize this is an old show, but it's on Dr. Phil today on OWN. I hope by now that this situation has been long resolved, and that all parties involved are healthy and happy, and that mental help for the digital kidnapper has been received, and that the mother has a new hairstyle. 🥶
Dont put up personal pics on social media
Sophie and Vivian ought to be 10 or 11 years old by now.
Probably so if she took pictures in the home she'd have "proof" its her kids with framed photos
