Double Trouble: Teen Sisters Out of Control (12x78)

Air date: Jan 10, 2014

Kristen says her nieces, Danielle, 15, and Jessica, 18, are angry, violent, out-of-control teens who drink and use drugs -- and she blames her sister, Michelle, for their bad behavior. She claims Michelle is a bad mother who has no idea how to raise kids, and as a result, her nieces are on self-destruct. She says the girls will physically fight anyone for the slightest offense and have been expelled from school for attacking their classmates. Kristen also says they’ve been admitted to mental health facilities multiple times for suicide attempts and cutting -- and she fears someone could end up dead. Michelle says she’s tried her hardest to parent her daughters but is at her wits’ end and simply cannot control them. Can she learn to rein them in, before it’s too late? Then, hear from Danielle and Jessica. Whom do they blame for their anger and bad behavior? Can they make a change for the better?
