My brother & sister in law have a 5 month old daughter. The parents can't get along, They are always screaming and all the baby ever does is cry, they hit each other all the time. The mother screams at the baby to shut up and calls her a little b*tch, both the parents pick the baby up by her wrists and her arm. The mother has left the baby with the father while she goes out to drink and do drugs. Both parents are mentally unfunctionable, my mother in-law has to take care of my brother and sister, neither of the parents drive or can read to get their license. I am tired of them treating my niece so badly. My sister recently kicked her husband & the baby out, the mother gave up custody to my mother in-law, but my mother in-law is 50, she calls me every night, and asks me to come help her take care of the baby so i think it is only logical that i file for custody for my niece.
