My sister's rights to her daughter Emma were terminated about 6 years ago due to her addiction to drugs. I have had custody of her ever since then and she is now 10 years old. My sister hadn't seen her, since she lost her rights to her, until about 6 months ago because she never wanted to. She called asking if she could see her and i didn't think it would be a good idea but when I talked to Emma, she told me that she would like to see her. I was iffy at first but i allowed it and they see each other quite often now. The problem is she is still on drugs and you never know how she is going to act. Emma just hasn't been herself since she started seeing her and it's almost like she's depressed. Every time i try to talk to her she tells me nothing is wrong but i know there is. I ask her if she even wants to see her mother anymore and she says yes but i can tell it isnt really what she wants. I just don't know what to do because i hate to see her unhappy like this and she has never been so reserved with me. I thought about telling my sister that it's just not working and she can't see her right now but i just don't no what Emma really wants. I probably should have never allowed them to see each other in the first place.
