Ohio Grandma Jackie Sheaks with an odd sense of humor got herself into a bit of hot water recently when she posted some compromising photos of her infant granddaughter to Facebook. Cool your jets the baby was fully clothed. There were no babies donning lingerie or nude photos. Yet, these photos were disturbing.
The Ohio woman photographed her baby granddaughter with duct tape on her face and lying in a roasting pan surrounded by potatoes. So I'm not sure if this abuelita is the old witch from Hansel and Gretel or if she was just trying to convey, quite literally, that the baby was cute enough to eat. Anyways, she shared them on Facebook and instead of her friends and family being amused they were, quite frankly, flabbergasted–as they should be.

The less than traditional photos also drew the attention of the local sheriff's department. But no fear, the baby girl's mom said it was a-okay! The problem was that one photo shows the child with her pacifier duct-taped to her little cheeks. That shit hurts when you remove it! I'm not sure if grandma was making a commentary on babies who throw their binkies out of their mouth just to watch their parents walk over pick it up and put it back in (dance, monkey, dance) or if she is in her not so subtle way letting us all know just how lazy of a caregiver she herself is.
The other photo shows the little girl in a roasting pan surrounded by raw food. Where the hell is the board of health when you need them? That can't be sanitary. Can you imagine taking a photo of your child in a pan of pozole or menudo? Or maybe chained to a tree? What the hell was this abuela thinking?
Personally, I don't find the photos funny at all. I find them to be stupid and dangerous. I'd like to think grandma had a hard day and a lapse in judgment. Hopefully, this slap on the wrist by local authorities and the shaming by her Facebook friends will teach abuela to not take photos like this of her granddaughter ever again. I guess we've all taken photos of our children that we maybe shouldn't have like in the tub when they are toddlers or holding daddy's beer bottle but I think most of us know better than to put them on social media. ¡Ay, ay, ay!
