The poor kid was screwed before she was even born. Her mother was already a junkie when she was pregnant, and it would be a miracle if Bobbi Kristina wasn't born with drugs in her system.

We hope that if Bobbi Kristina needs help that she can get the help that she needs. Her mother died far too young.

Whitney Houston's family: Bobbi Kristina should be in rehab - report
By Andrea Reiher

A source close to the family of Whitney Houston tells TMZ that the family members think 18-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina needs to be in a rehab facility as soon as possible, but that they are waiting until after the funeral to tell Bobbi.
 

Houston “had to delay 24 hours a concert in Barcelona because of gastroenteritis,” February 2005. I never heard of anyone getting gastroenteritis from a crack pipe.
 

The sources say Bobbi has fought substance abuse for the past three to four years and the family thinks she needs to get professional help in a live-in treatment facility, particularly in light of Whitney's alleged use of alcohol and prescription drugs in the weeks leading up to her death.

The sources also say, though, that they are not putting pressure on Bobbi Kristina right away, as she needs time to grieve her mother's passing.

We hope that if Bobbi Kristina needs help that she can get the help that she needs. Her mother died far too young.
