Not once have I atrributed the fact she was a heroin addict to her being a bad parent, like you say it's something that's been seized upon. Assuming her own addiction didn't affect the upbringing of the child, (we don't know either way) she still represents a need for much better education in this country. First we have a couple of mothers setting their kids on each other in a battle royale showdown, now we have one giving their kid methadone.
Something is seriously wrong, is it a lack of education specifically to do with children, a lack of general education, or are these just the idiots you get from time to time...?

Oh and Blags, sorry for the "no warning message" bit, I misread your tone and thought that was where you were heading with it.
