6 yr old drawing violent picture

A few months ago my 6 year old niece wrote a hateful note about her mom and drew herself stabbing her with a knife and colored in blood and the other day found another hateful note about her mom with the same drawing on both sides. She also wrote about my other niece (her cousin) being a star and that she is a piece of crap and she loves her but will kill her too. Should my family be concerned?

Yes, the graphic nature of these pictures does invite concern. She should be evaluated by a pediatric mental health clinician.
