omg PB that is so sick and wrong! It takes a lot to shock me these days, but geez...

I really hope this was what this guy needed to get some help and get off the drugs. I just wish he hadn't brought a poor innocent little girl into it in the process.

That's really awful, absolutely horrifying :/

I'm really shocked that the mother would let someone who was on heroin babysit and "I didn't know" is not an excuse, you always know, even the timbre of their voice changes. So sad and shocking :/

Truly frightening.
There was a case in Boston just recently where a father dropped his little girl off at daycare and she later complained her foot hurt. The teacher discovered bags of crack in the shoe -- where the father had hidden it! He's been arrested for dealing and endangering a child. Horrible to think the little girl or any of the other kids might have gotten into it.

I just heard this on the news this morning.  I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

CB, sorry to hear that. :( Hope everything is okay...


Mine: My choir director (who I previously posted had a week to live, and then discovered it was a bad game of Telephone) is in bad shape. For real this time. He has stopped teaching, now cannot leave his bed, and his wife is refusing visitors...

I just had a call to say that someone I've dealt with on and off over the past 6 years (through work) has died unexpectedly.  Really knocks you for six that sort of news!  I never met her but spoke and e-mailed regularly - my boss was meant to have dinner with her and her husband on Thursday night - now I've got to break the bad news!!
