That’s Someone’s Family Member…

from The Ramblings of an Insomniac · host Courtney Perry

Send us Fan MailAddiction is no joke. Homelessness is no joke. That's someone's child, parent, spouse, friend, etc.  To call an addict and/or homeless person a, "loser," is wrong, in my opinion. Addicts come from all backgrounds, are all shapes and colors. Addiction has no preference. No type. I don't think people WANT to be addicts. Wasn't a choice. They aren't losers. They are human beings that have a disease and need help. My heart breaks for those with no support. People that look down on those that are homeless or addicts, bother me. I also discuss parenting. How sick I am of people blaming parents for their grown, adult sons/daughters that get in to trouble. Nature versus nature. Or is it both? You can do all the "right" things as a parent, yet still have a kid that gets in to trouble. And be worst parent but have a son that turns out great. What's keeping me up? The self righteous, sitting on their high horses. Peering down at you, judging your parenting skills. The homeless, addicts and our veterans. Phew...that was long winded! Support the show
