[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 409489, member: 1157"] Heroin was (and is) a problem in my children's high school as well. Youngest had at least one friend back then that was (is) a heroin addict.. I'm so grateful she never experimented with that particular drug. He was not from an affluent family, his mother worked with me and was a single parent. We did not live in an affluent area, it was a suburban/rural area. I did find out, however, that our high school was "known" as the place to go to get good drugs. The cops knew about it, but were more focused on finding the dealers than they were arresting the users. Many kids simply "got away" with it. I have another friend in another state whose 19 year old son died of a heroin overdose a few months ago. It's everywhere, and it knows no socioeconomic barriers. Don't ever think, "not in my child's school." [/QUOTE]
