    Prayers needed

    I will try to be brief. My GF is downstairs talking to her neices 17 year old daughter. She is trying to save this kid from becoming a third generation addict. Both the kids grandparents succumbed to addiction during the opioid epidemic around 2009. Her mother has married an addict and is losing control of her life. The 17 year old live's with her father who is 12 years clean and sober. He divorced the kids mother years ago to save himself. He reached out this week for help with his kids to save them from their mother. All I can add is what a Fn nightmare.

    This is dire. If she is not able to make a connection with this child she will be preyed upon by the worst possible elements of society.

    "The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
