My fiancés 2 girl's mother is an oxy contin and heroin addict. She did drugs throughout bother her pregnancies. The youngest one was born with a strong prescription drug in her system (xanax). Currently she is on supervised visitation. She has been caught several times lately high when she drops off the kids and also when she shows up at functions. How hard is it to get her rights terminated? What do we need to prove to the courts? It's hard to catch her in the act because she is very sneaky. We have been keeping a journal but other than that all we have is the proof of the youngest being born with drugs in her system. I know it's hard to prove a mother unfit. How do we do this? I would like to adopt the girls when we get married, but in order to do that she would have to be out of the picture. Is it possible?

Who is the supervisor? How is she getting away with visitation if she is high? If the supervisor is also willing to testify to the mother's addiction it would be a huge benefit.

Her parents. They are so stupid though and don't realize when she's high. I think her mom may testify. But not for her to sign over her rights, maybe to keep her on visitation. If she gives up her rights then that means the grandparents won't have any rights either and they won't want to do that.

Well I can understand them feeling that way, if they are supervising the visits it allows them time with their grandchildren whether the mother is high or not. It will not be favorable for you to desire cutting them out of their grandchildren's lives. You can request new supervision for visitation.
