LOS ANGELES - Former teen idol Leif Garrett is hooked on heroin, his mom says - and she blames hard-partying rock 'n' roll legends like the Rolling Stones for steering her son toward drugs. "Leif idolized rock stars ... that whole life of rock 'n' roll and drugs ... the Rolling Stones. He figured if they could do it, so could he," Garrett's distraught mother, Carolyn Stellar, told the Daily News yesterday.

If you ever needed help getting hooked on drugs, I guess the Rolling Stones were as good as any.

I was fliping channels and VH1 had a "where are they now" thing on him and other child stars. He's lost most of his hair and looks 15 years older than he should.
His mom trying to blame other rock stars for her sons problems is a bunch of misplaced crap. Common lady, your little boy isn't 15 anymore.
