In Cissy Houston’s memoir, “Remembering Whitney: My Story of Love, Loss, and the Night the Music Stopped” she details how she really felt about Whitney having a drug problem. Whitney’s mother wants it to be known that she does NOT blame Bobby Brown for her daughter’s habit. “I blame him for the way he treated her,” Cissy writes. In this tell-all she creates something that would remind people, that even though she had a drug problem Whitney still was a nice person. Cissy just wishes that she would have said something to stop her child from diving into drugs. “Whitney hid from me.” Cissy, often afraid to confront her daughter added, “What was the point? I didn’t want her to run completely away from me.” When someone is doing what they want it’s hard to stop them. I don’t care what anyone says, YES she had a problem that could have been rectified, however that doesn’t take from the talent and the music that she blessed us with (when she was off drugs). R.I.P. Whitney. Drop down bottom for more. JaaiR (JR)
