I did totally sympathise with Kate but I get what Lynn (above) is saying. My son is 21 and we found out about his 3 year old heroin addiction in the summer. Living with this is pure hell. Locks on doors, verbal and sometimes physical abuse. It is a struggle to keep going, some of my family think I should just put my son out, but where would he go? I just can’t turn my back on him, he is still my child, though like Lynn, I feel I have lost my son now to heroin. I pray he will get better but just can’t see any end to this.

Although heartbreaking to watch, this mum has got it easy, HER KID DOESN’T LIVE WITH HER!! Try telling the whole story, maybe show her kid verbally abusing the family, destroying the house and relationships as well as their own lives. Like her in the film I love my son, although if I’d known what I was in for 3 years ago when he asked to come home and make a fresh start I would have said NO!!! I have had blood on my walls, doors and floors after he’s injected his penis after standing in the shower for 30 minutes to pump his veins up, (in debt to the water company now).I also have a 17 year old son who is the only thing that keeps me going, if anything happens to him I will kill myself as my life ended when my firstborn took that poison. We have moved again but nothing changes, I will not throw my son on the streets which everyone thinks is the thing to do.
