Hey.
So recently I've been having some family drama. Gotta love it right? Well I finally know what the shit is going on.
My older sister (whos done so much I'm shocked my parents haven't disowned her or something) does Heroine and Marjiuana and another one I can't remember. She was asking me, with our mother actually in the car, if I've ever tried a joint.
The only problem I have is she's pregnant. And desperately wants the baby. Although she's currently separated from the daddy...
Oye. If you do drugs, this is no offence to you, unless you're pregnant and doing drugs.
What kind of person does that? I know many people do that, my boyfriends mother drank and did crack when she was pregnant with him. But it's not right! If you're planning on having a kid, why risk giving the kid a genetic disease from messing up it's development?
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend anyone if I did. I just don't understand why people do this kinda thing...

Unfortunately that is the nature of addiction, heroine addictions are horrible and even the best mother in the world could do something as horrible as to use drugs while pregnant, if they fall under addiction.

I would not directly say it is HER being bad, the addiction has changed her and unfortunately she needs treatment to fix that. However, the baby could easily have a lot of issues if she takes it to term.

Damage could have already been done by the use of drugs while she is pregnant, convince her to go to treatment as well as get an abortion? Best thing I can think of.

Sorry that you are having to deal with this, addictions ruin people AND their families which is very sad.
