PARENTS TURN A BLIND EYE

To the editor;

I want to thank you for your excellent article on page three no less
(Feb. 7, 2005, Star/Journal) on the meth addiction epidemic in this
town. I hope that it has opened a few people's eyes.

I went through the same horror a few years ago. I still live in fear
of my child's potential to reuse.

I attended the meeting at the elementary school and plan to attend the
high school meeting on Feb. 24.

There is a house in my neighborhood that the drug users frequent as
well as one down the road.

It's everywhere and it's horrible.

I hope this is the start of something good.

The sad part is there are kids out there whose parents have turned a
blind eye.

I look forward to more articles on this subject.
