[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 680752, member: 11832"] JMom, I worry about this with my two as well. There are so many alcoholics and addicts in my late husband's family. When I find my mind fretting over this issue, I try to shove it in box and shut it. There is no sense in worrying over something which may not happen. I also don't want my children to think that since their father suffered, they absolutely must have the same life path. I am envisioning my kids as having a more successful life free of those issues. I hear you about the young children. I work at a middle school, and the bathroom down the hall from the Special Education classrooms is the chosen location for drug deals. I find myself wondering where these kids get the drugs to sell. I suppose it's from parents who are struggling themselves. What chance do these young children who are already dealing have to succeed? I hate that this is happening right under our noses, and I am disgusted that the administration does little to stop it. [/QUOTE]
