Child Death & Drugs (send KARA your stories)

As a County guardian ad-Litem, I’ve become familiar with children as young as four, five & six trying to kill themselves.  Many of these children have been proscribed powerful psychotropic medications with way too little of the necessary mental health care required to keep them safe.

Today it’s time we learn about the growing problem of newborns dying after being sent home with mothers struggling with drug addiction.  This Reuters investigation starkly demonstrates that doctors are not alerting social services to thousands of infants living in toxic homes with addicts.  Every 19 minutes an American baby is born dependent on opioids.
