    Call CPS. They will go to the house and investigate. If things are the way you say they are, they could remove the child from the home. You can tell the person you speak to everything you've said here. They will not tell you the outcome, but your sister will probably tell you she had a visit from CPS.

    You will not get the baby before CPS does. If they find her unfit, CPS will send the baby to a foster home until they sort things out. They will try to place the baby with family if possible, but that will take time.

    Of course you do. I've seen so many cases where the parent was visited by CPS, had to take parenting classes, and were told to keep a better home. They were able to keep their children. It would have been helpful if the baby had been taken to the hospital after being hurt by your sister. That way, CPS would have been involved much sooner.

    Your state's CPS website talks about providing in home counseling to parents in order to keep the family unit together. So, that may be the case for your sister. Each case is done on an individual basis, so I hope it turns out well for all involved.

    If the child is taken from the home the child will most likely be given to the legal father. From there who knows what options may or may not open up.

    How was the boi father proven and was this done by a court?
