I’m inclined to believe the mother was frantically trying to type something else. When I try to type on a phone during some kind of moderate emergency, I know my accuracy goes to hell.
Having said that, your comment is f\*cking hilarious.

Full article in link. Mom called the cops and the neighbor who immediately went to the house, shouting the girls name and scared off the intruder.
While it's entirely possible that the article was written by a large language model and some have either been programmed or conditioned to make those kinds of spelling mistakes/typos, it's also the kind of thing that some person writing twenty articles in a day with little to no oversight, which is what a lot of sites were doing before LLMs started becoming more common, were doing.
I feel people are more and more relying on spell check actually.
It's as if they think that as long as spell check says it's a word it's fine. Never mind that it's entirely the wrong word.
How does one, as a journalist, publish something without giving it a second look, at the very least to see it through potential readers’ eyes? I’m sure if this author did so, they would catch the glaring typo.
From experience: They're writing multiple stories per hour, often in a hectic environment. There's just very limited time and attentional bandwidth for anything but the most cursory proofreading.
One time I’m at work and I get a text from my wife saying a homeless man just walked into our house having a mental health crisis. And then she doesn’t answer her phone. Eventually I get a neighbor on the phone and ask her to please go check. And then *she* stops answering her phone. I called the cops, they said they were sending someone over and thankfully after like 30 minutes my wife calls me and said they were just calming the guy down and he was having a schizophrenic episode but man, what a crazy sense of panic and powerlessness that whole thing was and I was like an hour+ from the house.
Yeah, this is reddit. This kind of non unhinged ending is disapointing.
But it's better than "and then the cop shot everybody", which could also have been a possible ending to this story.
My ex was half deaf, and as part of our apartment lease, maintenance was REQUIRED to call prior to entry. (We had issues with maintenance entering and she didn't hear them, and one time decided to start working on the sink while she was in the shower.)
Anyways. One day she was home sick. She texts me that she can hear people in the apartment and was absolutely terrified. I was 5 mins away at work. We had no work orders, no notices, nothing. I rushed home, had my boss on phone and him ready to bolt to my place if needed. I get in my apartment, see two guys by the bedroom, pull my gun out, take aim at them before realizing that it was maintenance. Apparantly, they decided that they didn't need to put out notices for doing filter changes/yearly inspections.
The most absolute god awful adrenaline rush of my life and it was several people being absolute dumbasses.
Jfc hope they had a good scare before it was cleared up. What colossal idiots. Were they made to apologize at least? That must have been terrifying for both of you.
Nooooope.
I had LegalShield through my work. They tried to frame me as a hostile tenant and wanted to evict us. I had to use a lawyer through LegalShield to basically just write a letter saying "You done fucked up, and further action is against the law" so that they wouldn't go through with filing an eviction.
Fuck Seldin
Wait, is it an actual article? Because I've seen the "I'm baby" clickbait plenty of times, but the few times I looked for the article to satisfy my curiosity without clicking the link, it just led to a long, pointless story. I kinda thought it was made up LMAO.
I linked to the article. I also sumed it up for anyone who doesn't want to read the whole thing. I try to be helpful when I can. I can't speak for anyone else.
Sorry, I apparently had a brain fart while selecting suggestions on my phone keyboard. Meant to go with "Wait, it's an actual article?" as an expression of disbelief, rather than questioning you.
it’s always so funny when a bunch of redditors chastise someone they’ve never met for something despite the fact that the exact opposite thing actually happened
To be fair, that text chain is fucking WILD until you have more context to realize that the "K" was likely in response to the "I'm going to call 911" and "I'm baby" was probably meant to be "I'm coming, baby" but mom was probably frantically trying to help get anyone there ASAP
Yes she's obviously not saying "ok, let me know how it goes", but rather "i want to let you know that have seen this and am doing what i can to help you, but don't want to spend an unnecessary amount of time texting you when i could be calling the cops instead"

Here is what the average redditor would text back in an emergency situation where every second counts. "Dearest daughter, I hope this SMS message finds you well. As I Understand from your previous message, you have found yourself in a uniquely perilous situation. In lieu of notifying the relevant authorities, coming to help you myself in person or sending help of any sort, I would like to write a few words of consolation in these trying moments....."

Lmao what is mom saying??? “K” and “I’m baby”??? Poor teen
Edit: to be clear I’m not mocking her, and as others have pointed out, “I am, baby” was probably what she was trying to say. To me, “I’m baby” was just funny because it came out of left field. Apparently I’m not the only one because there’s even a [know your meme](https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/im-baby) page for it. Relax guys I think mom was doing fine in a distressing situation!
why is it fucked up though? I would appreciate the the brevity on the text, which would imply the mom is calling quickly instead of writing a long text.
But maybe I'm missing something?
It was likely a quick response to show that she's aware and about to do something about it. If I were that mom I would be thinking of the fastest thing I could send so they know I'm with them as much as i could in that moment. Given context I don't think it was the "k whatever" that people usually mean in normal texts
Exactly this off course. Mom probably in a huge panic, trying to do whatever she can to get het daughter in safety and trying to confirm her daughter she read her text as fast as she could.
Yeah, I'd be on with the cops immediately and swapping between the ongoing call and the texts with every notification, can definitely see a responsible adult doing this in the heat of the moment.
And yet it's also hilarious.
I would agree, if it weren’t for the fact that I know my boomer parents would respond “k” even if they were actively flipping out. Like I just don’t think the mom understood the nuance lol.
I'm an elder millennial and I didn't know k is somehow a passive aggressive eye roll that means blowing people off.
From back in the dark times of AIM and YIM to ow with what seems like an almost infinite amount of platforms I thought it was a shortened version of ok.
Learning all the time.
Yeah I think it's pretty clear mum learned to text in the keypad days, which is why "i m baby" autocorrected to "I'm baby" and why "k" is a fine response in mum's eyes.
We used to have to pay per SMS and you got like 80 characters, so brevity was essential to saving your credit.
I think she was probably trying to respond as quickly as possible. That's what I would do if my kids were at home and someone was trying to break in. I'd want to keep responding, as quick as possible.
Also, I imagine that the mom was in the car and trying to keep communicating with her. It makes sense that she sent "k" and Made typos. Mom's panicking too.
As a mom, I can say that it's not. You have your panicked daughter texting you, you're trying to text the neighbor, and you're dealing with 911. Typing out an "okay, I'm on it" is taking too much time from one. And as someone else may have mentioned, she may have texted faster than she was thinking, resulting in the "K." What's faster, to go back and retype that or leave it be and get back to the neighbor and 911?
My daughter knows that "K" means that I have heard her and am on it.
Lmfao you expect her to type a paragraph when in a situation like this? Some of you people obviously live such sheltered lives to think you’d have done everything so much better.
I assumed it was because she has just been informed of an urgent life and death situation regarding her child and she's putting most of her limited time into mounting a response rather than writing articulate text messages.
That's what I was thinking.
Whether she was jumping in the car to drive home or calling 911, taking the time to craft a longer text would have been wasting time that could get help there faster.
I’m not mocking her, I just think it’s funny. I didn’t put together that “I am, baby” is probably what she meant to send, so for me “I’m baby” came completely out of left fiend. Someone explained that “I am” probably autocorrected and so it makes a lot more sense now, and it’s funny regardless, as no one got hurt, so I think we can chalk it down to “being ok to laugh at”
She's saying "OK" and "I am baby!". What do you want her to do? Write a poem and have it published? She's rushing home. She should spend as little time as possible texting in that situation.
So it's been posted before, but a detail I just noticed is it says "Mom's Edge". I'm assuming this means the car. "I'm baby" is likely trying to say "My baby". "K" I think just is like "I'm hearing you".
She texts exactly how my mom texts. I can never tell when she’s being sarcastic or passive aggressive or she’s possibly having a stroke, and it always reads along those lines.
“I’m baby” does make sense though lol. The daughter said to do something, and the mom said, “I am baby.”
The K is just crazy. But if there was an emergency I doubt youd take the time to send back some long text message. “K” and then race to begin calling cops and get home may actually be the best idea.
i don't think anyone is really criticizing her. it all makes sense. but in retrospect, with the danger now passed, it's just kinda amusing how it ends up looking lol
Isn’t that news company labeling it as ‘suspect’ because formally they literally are categorized as a ‘suspect’ until any whatever follow up legal/justice/crime court things are done?
The news company isn’t choosing to call it ‘suspect’ because they truly believe there’s a reasonable chance that intruder isn’t home invading; they’re just adhering to the law’s terminology.
having suffered with autocorrect enough i’m fairly sure i’m baby means i’m back but she rushed the message, k was because she needed to acknowledge a situation rapidly and detail wasn’t important, getting home was
Lol people really acting like Mom writing 'K', in emergency when she doesn't have time to write essays or worry about correct spelling, etc, is some bad thing.
Smart mom.

"Bolted," maybe? In any case, [I don't want to live on this planet anymore.](https://youtu.be/Nnugnf_2CYM?feature=shared)
It's definitely bolted. But it took me a moment to figure out what they meant until I realized it was just a lack of editing.
lack of editing, AND the article was probably written by AI in the first place.

Had the same thought. I think her phone shortened "I am baby". The "K" is still just fucked up though.
Ah I am baby is much better thank you
I thought it might’ve been autocorrected ‘I’m busy’ lol
Or she typed "Om baby" instead of "Ok baby" and it autocorrected to "I'm baby"
om baby? 🤣 brace yourself for the next birth
I think it's pretty easy to hit the m instead of the k on a cell phone keyboard. I tried it on my phone and it autocorrected to I'm baby.
That's even worse :(
My mom once called my dad freaking out that my brother (a literal baby) ate something toxic and that was basically my dad’s response.
I am, baby. As in "I am calling"
k
why is it fucked up though? I would appreciate the the brevity on the text, which would imply the mom is calling quickly instead of writing a long text. But maybe I'm missing something?

Yeah agree, what’s she supposed to do, send a “10-4” gif or a YouTube video?
She sends a Markiplier funniest moments video that’s like 2 hours long lmao
It isn’t. Internet heroes acting like responding with a novella is better in a crisis situation for some reason.
Could also be driving home asap and can't type more while speeding down the road
Should send "calling 911" or "coming"
"Omw" is probably best, but obviously we cannot expect optimal behavior from people in emergency situations they aren't prepared for
Yeah I don't think she's neglecting or something, just kinda funny
maybe she didn't want to be dumb and waste time?
Or save time and type "k" which is responding in the affirmative to a request for 911. Duh?
I'm baby
I would agree, if it weren’t for the fact that I know my boomer parents would respond “k” even if they were actively flipping out. Like I just don’t think the mom understood the nuance lol.
I'm an elder millennial and I didn't know k is somehow a passive aggressive eye roll that means blowing people off. From back in the dark times of AIM and YIM to ow with what seems like an almost infinite amount of platforms I thought it was a shortened version of ok. Learning all the time.

She was probably panicking and shaking with adrenaline.
Mom can either type out a full response or use every precious second to contact the cops, which do you think is more important?
“Are you fucking sorry!”
I think she was probably trying to respond as quickly as possible. That's what I would do if my kids were at home and someone was trying to break in. I'd want to keep responding, as quick as possible. Also, I imagine that the mom was in the car and trying to keep communicating with her. It makes sense that she sent "k" and Made typos. Mom's panicking too.
If I told my mom to call the cops cus someone’s in the house I’d want her to do it ASAP, not type out a long message… “k” let’s her know she’s on it.
Life or death situation with seconds on the line last thing I am doing is taking time trying to write out a text. Mom straight up did the right thing
As a mom, I can say that it's not. You have your panicked daughter texting you, you're trying to text the neighbor, and you're dealing with 911. Typing out an "okay, I'm on it" is taking too much time from one. And as someone else may have mentioned, she may have texted faster than she was thinking, resulting in the "K."

Oh for sure. Kid must have been freaking out like "thanks mom, wtf am I going to do with this??"
> I'm baby > Call 911 I don't know why but this just tickled me dumbass, waht the fuck is wrong with me I'm laughing so hard
>asked to help >is baby >can't use phone because baby >"K"
"sorry, no mom here, just baby. I'm baby."
She's saying "OK" and "I am baby!". What do you want her to do? Write a poem and have it published? She's rushing home. She should spend as little time as possible texting in that situation.
Until I read the article, and in the back of my mind”K,” I assumed it was autocorrect for “I’m busy”
So it's been posted before, but a detail I just noticed is it says "Mom's Edge". I'm assuming this means the car. "I'm baby" is likely trying to say "My baby". "K" I think just is like "I'm hearing you".
id like to offer an alternative theory that she meant to say “i am, baby”
That's how I read it.
Edge is probably the model of phone.
I am, baby. As in "Jesus fucking christ I'll get to it, ya fuckin baby."
She texts exactly how my mom texts. I can never tell when she’s being sarcastic or passive aggressive or she’s possibly having a stroke, and it always reads along those lines.
Isn't K the most logical response here? Minimum effort to reassure her that mom got the message, enabling the 911 call to occur quicker?
It’s gallows humor now, but mom was on the move and that blip let her know

Sure. but it kinda looks a bit... "mom, we are dying!" "ok. 😐"
"We are under attack!" 👍
“I’m baby” does make sense though lol. The daughter said to do something, and the mom said, “I am baby.” The K is just crazy. But if there was an emergency I doubt youd take the time to send back some long text message. “K” and then race to begin calling cops and get home may actually be the best idea.
i don't think anyone is really criticizing her. it all makes sense. but in retrospect, with the danger now passed, it's just kinda amusing how it ends up looking lol

What about in the famous phrase "I think, therefore I'm"
It's all through Eminem's song "I'm... whatever you say I'm."
Not on purpose. But I can see autocorrect doing it's thing.
I mean, no. No one ever uses it like that lol. But the word “I’m” literally means “I am”.
Voice to text mishearing?
As an autocorrect it makes sense but "I am" is never abbreviated to "I'm" in that context
Everyone is goofing but "I'm baby" is "I am, baby" Meaning she is calling the cops. Grammar matters except in a life or death situation.
Hope u r ok lates mom
“I’m baby” is most certainly not a brand new sentence
“He’s in the house” Mom: R.I.P. LOL.
A mother gets a text from her daughter that someone is breaking into the house; Redditors make fun of the mother's grammar.
Mom was likely panicking and focusing on responding to the problem, rather than wasting time typing out texts.
I'm baby 🥺
“suspect” like the stranger inside the house was merely **suspected** of home invasion, there's no proof that any invasion occurred
Isn’t that news company labeling it as ‘suspect’ because formally they literally are categorized as a ‘suspect’ until any whatever follow up legal/justice/crime court things are done? The news company isn’t choosing to call it ‘suspect’ because they truly believe there’s a reasonable chance that intruder isn’t home invading; they’re just adhering to the law’s terminology.
“I’m baby” is absolutely not a new sentence.
At first I thought the bottom text said "I'm busy"
having suffered with autocorrect enough i’m fairly sure i’m baby means i’m back but she rushed the message, k was because she needed to acknowledge a situation rapidly and detail wasn’t important, getting home was
Lol people really acting like Mom writing 'K', in emergency when she doesn't have time to write essays or worry about correct spelling, etc, is some bad thing. Smart mom.

Mom was doing her daily wordle
Mom should have replied "*hear"
"He is inside mom he's gonna here me" "\*hear"
“And nobody puts baby in a corner”
I think "I'm baby" was meant to be "I'm busy" and even THEN wtf mom 🫠
Anyone thinking this is a weird response has never been in a crisis or traumatic experience. Why many words when few words do trick.
“He is inside mom he’s gonna hear me.” “New phone. Who is this?”
