"I'm baby"
Is she trying to say "I am, baby"? Do people abbreviate like that?
I think the "I'm baby" is the result of using voice to text while she's in the car on the way home. I don't think she's crafting messages in a way usual of anyone. She is spending the minimum amount of time on the phone to let her daughter know she has been heard, then focusing the rest of her energy on getting back there asap.

Mom too busy edging to reply properly
Gooning takes priority, no matter what
I'm baby
Probably meant "I am, baby" as in on her way home.
This is the generous interpretation and the one I'm picking. Seems like a stressful situation for all, so a lot can be forgiven.
I can even understand "k" as response. What can mum do except give the kid, and mum, space to solve the problem? "I understand, I'm calling the police now" or just call the police. One saves time, one wastes it.
I could even understand it being a "oh shit, oh shit, oh shit" response. Executive function is gone, here's a "k" while I melt.
Lots of room here before jumping to mum being the worst person in the world.

I mean... That was exactly the right thing to do.
Respond as fast as possible as clearly as possible.
But looking back on it, it is pretty fucking funny to read.
“K”
“I’m baby”?
Did she mean “I’m busy”?
If so this is messed up.
I'm guessing it's supposed to be "I am, baby" (in response to 'are you coming home') but written in a panicked haste.
Anyone thinking she'd have the time or calm to properly spell check before sending when her kid's in danger is delusional.
Hopefully she was rushing home - maybe driving? - and couldn't text well?
"K", and "I am baby"?

Mom cares about her kid's safety but that K was just her taking a step back and wondering if it's worth it when she still can't get 'hear' right

Mom is texting while driving and freaking out, that's why her texts are like that
I underappreciated my parents not being that retarded
This seems to be the actual reporting: https://abc7.com/montclair-teen-saves-niece-home-invasion-quick-thinking-home-invasion/1781013/
The intruder bolder, and moments later, police arrived.
What?

TL:DR her mom called the police and a neighbor and the neighbor loudly arrived spooking the intruder

I was thinking why she didn't just call the police herself but apparently it was so the intruder wouldn't hear her
*here
I'm not sure which part you'd want me to change lol
E: It's a joke about the spelling on the texts, isn't it
