Daughter of Whitney Houston and
Bobby Brown battling her own demons

Bobbi Kristina Brown, the daughter of the late Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, disappeared for several hours after her mother's funeral to get high, according to numerous sources, including The Daily Beast.

The 18-year-old, who according to family sources was in rehab last year, has been hospitalized twice since the Saturday funeral, according to RadarOnline.com.

And now Bobby Brown, no stranger to addiction and rehab himself, is encouraging her to get more help.

"Bobby is afraid of what is going to happen to Krissy if she doesn't get some help," a source told RadarOline. "Krissy has taken her mother's death really hard, not surprisingly, and Bobby is terrified she's going to do something stupid. He wants her in a treatment center, getting professional help to get her through the grieving process without falling back on alcohol or drugs to mask her pain."

 "Let's face it, both her parents struggled with dependency issues and Bobby knows that addiction often runs in the genes so he's terrified his daughter is going to follow in his and Whitney's footsteps -- he wants to stop that by all means possible."
