Feeding Africa is easier than bringing up a daughter properly apparently

...just saying. Looks like all drug paraphernalia was removed too, if someone did enter before the police and clean up evidence of drug taking does that mean they also left a small child alone with a dead or dying person?

*Anything* is easier than bringing up a daughter. For example: building a particle accelerator in my basement, or designing my own space shuttle based on a Ford Fiesta, or translating War and Peace to Korean in iambic pentameter - all of these, comparatively speaking, a piece of cake.

Caught this story as a news headline this lunchtime: heard "parents refuse to confirm heroin overdose" and immediately thought "So, it was an OD then". Stupid, girl, stupid: did you not learn from your mother? Nope, clearly not... :sigh:

I agree but you can't keep people from harming themselves. I have known a lot of people who did very dangerous things. Some lived and some didn't. The one thing they all had in common was that they weren't going to listen to others saying how dangerous were the things they were doing.

I think "responsible people" try far too damn hard to make sure they can't, these days! You need a little risk in your life, and "small failures" make you more prepared for when the big ones appear.

Regrettably, so have I. But there is "dangerous" and there is "stupid" - and the child ODing the same way her mother did is in the later category. It's like my mother's funeral: she died of cancer caused by her huge tobacco habit - but that didn't stop her grandkids lighting up the second they were outside the crematorium. :sigh:

What a tragic waste of a sweet piece of... feminine artistry. Gawds, what makes kids care so little about living another day? :((
