Perhaps the parent did all they can do to bring the kids into young adulthood. I don't know them but I bet they graduated HS, coming from a GOD fearing christian home and their Mom made many sacrifices for them. The only thing she probably did wrong was to do too much for them. They probably should have been living on their own. Now after raising them into young adulthood she has to burdon herself with this mess. The parent should not be blamed for these two. They were adult enough to get themselves into this mess. I didn't know that we still had heroine in this country. I thought that crack and ecstacy were the new thing. I thought that all the heroine addicts were gone - really gone.
