[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 658266, member: 18958"] Hi WhatWentWrong. I am a older than many of you. One benefit to that is to have a long view of things. I am from the hippy generation. We had drugs, too. But chemically, they were much more benign, I think. Destructive, but nothing like now.Good kids, from great families don't know what hit them. A little youthful rebellion, a desire for escape...and they become addicts. Such pain for everybody. And for what? Sometimes I think the solutions may be political. If all of our kids are at such risk, why is there not more effective drug enforcement? And there is the issue of social class. It seems that the rich kids are vulnerable because there is too much, too soon, including too much freedom, and the poorer and working class kids, because there is not enough opportunity. Or assistance. Or access. We are all in this together. Maybe that is the message. Like here on the board.This makes me sad and it hits home. I have spent way too long consumed by sad things over which I have had no control and were not my fault. Is it not enough, and time, to be happy? It seems to this observer that you have done and are doing everything right. I am glad that you are here with us now. Keep posting. We all, I think, need one another. Take care. [/QUOTE]
