I found out my cousin has been acting up in school lately throwing temper tantrums and stuff and shes only six it would be normal six year old behavior if the family didnt have a history of bipolar illness and her mother was not only bipolar but a recovering drug addict who had crack cocaine in her system at the time of conception and though the baby was born healthy despite that it was born not knowing the father cause she slept around so much. My cousin had the chance to get her child back by going to rehab she didn't stay the full rehab so the grandparents adopted the little girl.they moved her away from her family were we live recently to las vegas everyone and everything she loves is here that made me so mad theyd just pack her up and leave .i grew so attached now i will rarely be able to see her grow up.she didn't want to leave either she said it over the phone.that and her history of trauma is sure to cause her problems even though there getting her help.help doesn't always work . though i hope it does.and now worse the mother is recovering from drug addiction shes been clean and has expressed seeing her daughter the grandparents say no they dont want to throw her off track but the six year old wants to see her mother so it's a very complex situation. And i just worry about my little cousin in all of this
