Ultimately it comes down to the individual. Parents and friends can only monitor and "hover over" a person so much. We have to Love our people and give them a firm grasp of the dangers, not only of drugs but also alcohol and society at large. The young people are so vulnerable mentally now. I pray for us all.
So tragic about this families’ loss. I hope to become a parent one day and this knowledge and advice hits home.

So true, Jean-Baptiste.
Very sad indeed. But very real. Kids are so good at hiding stuff. So sorry about this.
I'm so sorry about your loss, and hope others will pay attention to your warning.
So sad, and, unfortunately quite common. I hope parents see this column, and heed its advice.
