Hi Tammy, You are absolutly right in taking custody of that baby. She needs your protection. Even if your daughter is not using, the environment she chooses to be in is not apporpriate(sw) for her baby. Any mom with her head on straight will do what is best for her child. Dragging her from house to house and subjecting her to the violent outbursts between her and her boyfriend is not what is best. If she is not using, she would take the help you offered and be the daughter you knew when she was growing up. If she is using she will continue to threaten to take the baby from you because she knows that is what will hurt YOU. It has nothing to do with her wanting her child back. Your daughter will continue to play that card and will use it every chance she gets, or at least everytime she fails to get her way with you. The baby has bonded with you by now. You and your husband are her family. It is unfortunate, but that is how it is. Protect her. Adopt her. If her mom cleans up and proves to want to be her mommy, you can always open that door when it presents it self. But for now you must do what is best for that baby so she dosen't end up the looser in this battle.

In my experience, when my daughter was "being nice" and we were getting along...she was using. When she was crashing is when she saw me as the bitch from hell and things would get ugly. Next time your daughter is being nice and getting along..look for the signs..check out BT's helpful hints. My daughter would fidget, talk really fast, use a lot of body motion just to name a few. Good luck...Kel
