[QUOTE="Rannveig, post: 669042, member: 5689"] So sorry, JustNeedToKnow, your niece sounds very seriously ill -- hardly surprising in light of what she had been through before your brother got custody and the stressful changes (however positive) since then. If she were your own child I'd say you needed to get her into intensive emotional and behavioral therapy, but I understand you don't have that power from where you are. That said, your brother's partner sounds as though she's reaching out to you for help and thus might be a good ally. Could she influence your brother to get treatment for your niece, if only out of care and concern for his partner and her children? Alternatively, have you thought about reaching out to social services to intervene? Is your niece in school yet, and do you have any idea of how she's doing there and whether it has drawn attention? I know it hurts to see your niece hurting. Sending good wishes your way-- [/QUOTE]
