There was a question posed to the public in our area by a morning radio show.
A couple, while visiting their neighbors, discovered in the medicine cabinet, a "bong". The question was "Do you say something to the neighbors about the drug use or just ignore it?" "Do you destroy the friendship and keep your kids from visiting them or having them sit your kids while out or just let it go?
The radio hosts seem appalled at the fact that the overwhelming response was to let it go. It doesn't seem to be a problem as they didn't even notice anything by the way in which they acted.
Now this also opens another question.
What business did the person have, to go through their neighbors medicine cabinet in the first place?
No one mentioned that....
Regardless of my lifestyle, if one of my supposed friends was going through my cupbaords or cabinets, I would wonder just what the motive was....
The other comment was that the hosts kids would never be left with any "dopeheads" or "alcoholics"
The assumption would be that they would know who these people are. I'm old enough to know that you can't always tell who these people are because they do know how to hide the problem. Guess the hosts believe they are psychics.
Do they think they are protecting these kids? What happens when those kids hit the real world? Can you imagine the shock when these kids hit the real world and have to deal with it without knowing it exists? I mean, sure, watch your kids, do what you can to protect them but don't hide the real world from them.
And just so you know that I do have some experience, my oldest is 24 and entered the real world with the knowledge to help him make the correct decisions.
