[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1459205, member: 20599"] As I've mentioned, I volunteered as an advocate for abused/neglected children for ~20 years. There was not a d@mn kid I worked with that didn't have a substance-abusing parent (or two). NOT A SINGLE KID. Urban, suburban, all flavors... It's naive to think that people who (ab)use drugs only affect themselves and that we are impinging on their natural right to fry their brains by trying to discourage them from so doing. Want to fry your brain? First, work hard to put aside enough money so you never have to steal or scam or hook to get your fix. Wait until your parents die; don't drive, marry or have kids. Or a pet. Or friends. Basically, become a hermit. Once you've achieved that exalted state: Hole up in your home and have at it. Fry away. Don't call 9-1-1. Pay someone ridiculously well to check once a month to make sure you're alive. (Yes, even then you're adversely affecting society but at least minimizing it). [/QUOTE]
