In the article “My mother is an addict” I learn that many parents are addicts and totally forget their responsibilities and responsibility to them. Many times their children do not have even the basics at home such as clean food and clothes, because the parents are under the substances they ingest and many times these substances are illegal because people can die from an overdose. This is the case with a young woman named Layla Keggs and whose mother is a drug addict and her daughter leads a bad life because she always comes home promising her daughter that she will change but she does not believe a word of it and goes away again.
I think that this happens a lot today because many people instead of solving problems better decide to take doses of drugs and completely forget about the responsibilities in their homes and the responsibilities that they have with their children.
Do you think addicted people need to seek help to get off drugs?
Dear Maria,
I agree with your post about ¨The Consequences that my Mother is an Addict¨. Its a sad thing when you know someone isnt caring for their child properly because of their own decision.
I really liked when you said ¨…many people instead of solving problems better decide to take doses of drugs…¨ I think this is mainly what I agree with and as we both said, its their own decision. As a parent you put yourself and your kids through that with you and to do that its selfishness.
I really enjoyed your post and I hope to see more of your posts in the future. Thank you.

Dear Maria,
I find your following post about “The consequences of my mother being addicted?” upsetting. I find this upsetting knowing that there are parents out there not taking full responsibility of their kids. Coming from a hispanic background, I would find it disheartening if my parents were like that.
One phrase she wrote that catched my attention was, “children do not have even the basics at home such as clean food and clothes, because the parents are under the substances”. It is said to know that kids like that don’t even have the basics. Adding to this idea of not having your essential needs, imagine not having responsible parents you can go to for guidance, imagine not having food or clothes, it is just heartbreaking.
Even though this post was upsetting to me, I am very interested in this topic and I would love to spread awareness out to families in need. Thank you for this writing, I would love to hear more from you.

Dear Maria,
I am interested by your post, “The Consequence of my mother being addicted?”, because it shows how many people are addicted to drugs, I’ve seen it with my own eyes. It’s sad to see other people go down that path. Especially when they have kids, that’s extremely sad to see a family with kids that have a family and not have enough food on the table or they have to find their own food throughout the day. I look forward to hearing more about this topic.

Dear Maria,
I am so interested by your post, “The Consequence of my mother being addicted?”, because it speaks what the daily lives of people that go through that on a daily basis. The environment of being around someone who is an addict can be so harmful in so many different ways that can affect minors.
One phrase that had caught my interest was “Many times their children do not have even the basics at home such as clean food and clothes, because the parents are under the substances they ingest and many times these substances are illegal because people can die from an overdose”. This caught my attention because when parents get addicted to a certain substance, their children are the ones who are damaged as the responsibility of being a parent goes away.
Thank you for writing. I would look forward to seeing what you write next, because I like your perspectives of those who live through this.

Dear maria,
I liked much your post about “The Consequence that my mother is addicted?” because I know of many children who are in that situation, they walk the streets asking for money, there are even children who do not survive this problem with their parents.
One sentence that caught my attention was “Many times their children do not have even the basics at home such as clean food and clothes, because the parents are under the substances they ingest” responding your question “Do you think addicted people need to seek help to get off drugs?” Parents must urgently seek help to solve their problem and care for their children.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because I want to know more about these problems.

Dear Mary:
I am surprised by his publication, “The consequence of my mother being addicted?” Because it is a very interesting topic. We hear a lot about people who are irresponsible for such activities if you could say so. This usually happens very often.
One phrase he wrote that stands out to me is: “Your children don’t even have the basics at home, like clean food and clothes, because the parents are under the substances they ingest.” I think this is sad because children do not have a good life and they do not have because they suffer.
Thanks for writing. I hope to see what you write next, because I like this type of topic. Because these types of people do not deserve to have their children since they never take care of them. And I think they are not available to take care of their children.
