Many of our kids are taking pills they get from friends, yes your kids are those kids too. You think you know everything but you don't. You use terms like those people yet those people are your neighbors, your friends kids and yes some your family members.
Learn about substance abuse. I meet people every week through my job who never thought they would be one of "those people" news flash, they look just like your kids and they didn't decide one day to wake up and start using substances. They are numbing the pain and then the drugs and alcohol take over.
You probably wouldn't help someone who needed CPR either.
Exactly. Another healthcare worker here who has seen kids hooked on opioids. These kids are average suburban, “kid next door” types. They are sweet, kind, responsible kids who became addicted often after being prescribed opioids for a bone fracture or surgery.
