When I saw this alert from the Rhode Island State Police, I can’t say I was all that surprised. Sadly, people driving around drunk with their kids in their car is all too common these days, and tons of parents put their kids at risk by being selfish idiots.

However, this case was especially distributing to me when I realized it was a babysitter, driving like a bat out of hell through some of Providence’s “best” neighborhoods…at 1:05 a.m……

Rhode Island State Police arrested a woman for drunk driving and child neglect after troopers spotted her allegedly speeding through South Providence and failing to stop for numerous stop signs with four young children in her car shortly after 1 a.m. today. Phyllis Lee Coates, 21, of 29 Thackery St., Providence, was charged with driving under the influence; refusal to submit to a chemical test; disorderly conduct; threatening a public official – the two troopers; and four counts of cruelty to or neglect of children. 

State Police Captain Matthew Moynihan said troopers had spotted a Mazda CX7 travelling at a high rate of speed on Prairie Avenue about 1:05 a.m. The vehicle also was observed to travel through numerous intersections without stopping at the stop signs. Coates was arrested and charged with driving under the influence and refusal to submit to a chemical test. Troopers also found four young children in the car – ages 2, 5, 7 and 11. The three younger children were not properly secured in child safety seats or restraints.

Moynihan said Coates was apparently watching the children while their mother was working. The car she was driving was owned by the mother. Troopers were unable to immediately locate the mother; however, the stepfather of the children was located and they were turned over to him. The state Department for Children, Youth and Families also was contacted and advised of the incident.

I grew up in Rhode Island, and I can tell you that nothing good happens on Prairie Avenue after Midnight.   Unless you’re looking to buy drugs, hire a streetwalking prostitute, or want to get shot, it’s not a good place to be at that time of night.

Now, we’ll get to the perpetrator in a moment, but let’s take a step back and consider the parents of these four kids. First of all, as a single parent myself, I understand how hard it can be to get a reliable babysitter, especially at that hour. I’m willing to give the parents the benefit of the doubt that perhaps they were working 3^rd shift and needed a sitter. Maybe, maybe not. But that’s irrelevant.

The big issue here is judgment. Even a mail-it-in, mediocre parent goes to some length to make sure their kids are in the care of a responsible adult. Of course, things with a sitter can still go wrong even after going to these lengths. But in this case, all the information about this winner was readily available to the parents thanks to a very public and ratchety Facebook page.

Say hello to Phyllis Coates:

Sure, on the surface, she looks like a nice enough girl with a nice smile. But spend 30 seconds on her Facebook page and you’d not want to leave your worst enemy’s kids with her for any length of time:

Yes, that is her cover photo, and no, those apparently aren’t her boobs (I have no more context on this photo). I could maybe even get by this and think that maybe she’s a silly girl, just lacking a bit of class.

However, scroll a quarter down her page and it’s clear that this chick loves to drink and smoke—at all hours of the day— and doesn’t give a F who knows about it. Say hello to the real Phyllis:

So this, ladies and gents, is who these parents decided to leave their kids (ages 2, 5, 7 and 11, by the way) with overnight. Nothing burns me up more than irresponsible parenting. All the evidence that this winner is not capable of taking care of herself, never mind young children, was there for the taking, yet they still chose to leave them with her. They’re just as responsible as Phyllis, in my opinion, because no logical human being would leave their kids with this waste.

Quick side note/Public Service Announcement: If you received a blood tranfusion in Rhode Island late last year, you my have some of Phyllis’ ratchet blood pumping through your arteries. Get tested. Now.

Thank God the fine officers at the Rhode Island State Police got to her before a gangbanger did, or before young Phyllis drove into a telephone pole. If only someone followed Phyllis’ very self-aware plea:
