[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where the heck is the nieces dad?? No way would I let my kid live in this situation [/quote]

When she was born SIL was not nearly this bad. She was capable of being a mom at least and niece and SIL lived with MIL even then so things were more stable I guess. It has been the last few years that SIL has really started to decompensate. Niece does spend a lot of time with her dad now but the main issue is really just poverty. He only lives in a small studio, which is essentially dilapidated room in his grandma's backyard  (and until recently lived there with his fiancé and teenage son). There is no real place for her to sleep and no privacy.

She is with him every weekend, but obviously it is not enough.  Supposedly he is looking to buy a place and niece has said that she will move in with him if he does, but it hasn't happened yet and I have my doubts. 
As for why he doesn't work harder to get custody or to move her to safer place, well we can all draw our own conclusions about that, but assumptions are probably correct. [/quote]
