"sad story. everybody loses"

I don't understand some of you people.....anyone know what it is like to live in a household of drug users? growers? Is it possible this teen was thinking about how much longer his younger siblings would have to live in this environment, and how it could progressively get worse?? Everybody WAS losing, now maybe some of them will have a chance? YES? NO?

Or am I wearing rose colored glasses???? Last I checked, they weren't.

Sometimes it's unwise to ask others such pointed personal questions on a public forum, the answer may not be one you'd expect.

I have no idea what this young man and his family have endured. Reporting dad for his illegal growing habit should have included at least an outline or a plan for what would happen next. Was there no one else he could turn to for help? Could he have not tried some type of intervention program? There are several other ways he could have gotten help for his dad. I'm curious why he chose this course of action, it is the most drastic step he could have taken. Hauling dad off to the concrete hotel should have been the last resort. I agree that if he was openly dealing and using in front of the children, the young man was justified.

I sincerely hope things turn out best for all concerned, including the father.
