ROMAN FOREST, Texas (CBSDFW.COM) — Roman Forest police are searching for a mother who they say left her young children home alone for nearly two months late last year.
On Nov. 14, 2022, police said a concerned father reported that his 12-year-old daughter had been home alone with her three-year-old brother since Sept. 28.
Police said the father, who lives out of state, "immediately" flew in from California when he was informed that his child's mother, Raven Yates, had been seen in Alabama without her children. He said he then realized the children were home alone because his daughter had asked him regularly to send food.

The children were not registered in school, police said, and didn't have much access to food or medical supplies while alone. They are now safe with a family member.
Police said Yates is believed to be in the Mobile, Alabama area and ask anyone with information to contact them.

According to this article, the 12-yr old was afraid if she told her dad that he would only come to get her and not the 3-yr old so she kept quiet and would tell her father her mom was at work when she called. The 3-yr old has a different father from the 12-yr old.
