Cousins

I have a 16 year old cousin, who likes to act like she is 25. She has been diagnosed with depression for about a year now. Recently she passed out, and hit her head. When she hit her head she got a concussion. Ever since she had her concussion she has been very angry, and ruthless. I have never seen her like this. She has a boyfriend who is 19. I personally do not like him, and I think he is the reason she is changing, but who knows. It has gotten to the point where she is suspended from school, yet her parents don't punish her. I don't understand how parents do not punish their child when they do bad things. When I was growing up, if I received a detention I would have gotten everything taken away, and not be able to see anyone. I want to help her become a better person than what she is now. I don't want her to fall through the cracks, and become something bad. She used a be a sweet girl. Then she found out what sex, and drugs are. Nothing has been the same sense. Someone please help me I need to know what to say so I don't make the situation worse, and lose her completely.

you can talk to her parents and try to put sense in the girl but other than that dont get in their life stay out of it
