What kind of mother leaves her 18-month old child with a boyfriend who has a drug habit? I just don't get it — so often, when we read of child abuse, it's by some guy the mother is hooking up with at the time. Don't they ever think of their children when they bring these low-lifes home?

You know fully well that if he can ring the bell for her, he can do no wrong, at least for a while.

I agree with you but I bet a lot of people, including the mother, probably wouldn't. They'd look at his Methadone habit as "being in treatment" because it's legally dispensed. Legal or not, it's still one mighty drug addiction.
