A mother in Florida wants to expose the members of a secret Facebook group she stumbled across that made fun of toddlers.

Melissa Antenucci from Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., found the group from a thread originally designed to sell and trade toddlers' clothing, according to WESH Orlando. She said she discovered it after some of the mother's in that group joked about being in a "mean girls" group and attacked photos of other women's children.

"The things that these mothers said were the most horrific things that I have ever seen, being a mom and knowing that they are moms," Antenucci said.

Some of the comments included one a mother made on another toddler's picture, saying, "...Is this a he or a she...You absolutely cannot fix ugly. This is a God given example of such."

Another mother chimed in "An ugly baby thread. I have died and gone to heaven...why can't you guys live near me so we can do this over cocktails?"

Antenucci said she took screen shots of the postings and passed them to heads at Facebook. The group has since been removed.

Antenucci is not the only mother who is fighting back against the group. One mother whose toddler was laughed at posted a picture of the child as a newborn in the Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit and wrote, "This is MY DAUGHTER that is being made fun of because she is delayed...so funny huh? Sick (expletive)"

One of the confronted mothers responded back, saying, "THIS IS FACEBOOK, NOT THE SALEM WITCH HUNT...THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY AND I WAS LAUGHING BECAUSE IT WAS FUNNY...THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENTS, NEXT."

That mother and several others in the group have since deactivated their accounts on the social media website.

Antenucci said she will not move on until they are all exposed because making fun of innocent children is wrong.

"We have zero tolerance. You are bullying babies," she said. "You're not even bullying your peers. You're bullying babies. No."
