[quote=Anonymous]I do not think the kids would be removed from the home in this circumstance. So you will need to balance how strongly you address your concerns with your brother/SIL (and/or CPS) with the risk of losing access to the kids if brother/SIL cut you off. I feel very sad for these kids because it sounds like they are experiencing a whole lot of punishment and little warmth/love. The research shows that there’s a big impact of having even just one warm/loving adult in your life outside of your parents. I think that’s especially true in situations where the parents are not up to par. If I were in your situation, I would focus on being that adult for my niece and nephew. I would offer to take them out individually for 1-1 time, and invite them over to my house for visits as frequently as possible.[/quote]
