One of my friends has recently got to know another couple that has children of a similar age to hers at the same school. The kids play togather and the parents have visited a few times on their own and it is definitely the begginnning of a friendship. However on the last evening they were there, they confided that they were on Methadone and that the husband was still taking smack but she wasn't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now my friend actually believes that the wife isn't also still jacking up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And she doesn't seem that concerned about the situation anyway
In my opinion she should at least watch herself with these people. When I was at college I knew a few Smackheads and I am not sure that they can be trusted, I don't mean that they are all mean and evil people, I just think that the severity of their addiction takes over and they can't help themselves from lying and cheating IYKWIM!
My friend doesn't have much money and she always likes to help people so I know that she won't turn her back on these people but I don't think that she is totally clear about the possible threat they could be to her and her family.
Any advice on her to gently help her to realise without making it sound like I think she is stupid IYKWIM!!
