But he's continued taking drugs into adulthood and in fact given the message loud and clear that he thinks they r good for people's mental health. That could be incredibly damaging for vulnerable people currently looking for a way out of their despair. Ye he takes no responsibility for the impact his words and advice to take drugs, may have on others.
Yes, I experimented with drugs in my youth. But as an adult I now take responsibility and accountability for my actions. If I was a public figure I would see it as my responsibility to apologise and hold myself to account. Knowing now what I didn't before, about county lines, about drug importation and organised crime, I have no desire to be part of or promote drug culture, unlike Harry. Having worked with people with mental health probs, drug addiction, and suicidal tendencies, I would never advocate drugs as a way to solve your problems or distress.
I made many mistake in my youth. If I was to write a book about my youth, I would acknowledge my wrong doings - if I reported on an argument with my brother I would acknowledge my part in it, not just play the 'poor me' role. If I had a mocked a school matron (which I wouldn't have done) I would feel terrible about it and apologise in the book. I would also have asked them for their consent before writing about it. If I had had sex in a field with a friend I would have talked to them about how they would feel about this going in the book - not just plough on ahead with no heads up.
I am far far from perfect, but as an adult I try to be accountable for my actions. Apologise when I'm in the wrong, and continually seek to improve aspects of myself which are not good.
If I was worried about my family's security, I wouldn't aggravate the Taliban in my book. I wouldn't make a netflix documentary showing my house, my children, my partner.
If I was pissed off with my family, I'd talk about it with them in private. I would not then write a book and make a TV documentary slagging them.off to the world and revealing private conversations had after the death of a grandparent, because despite having my gripes, I have some loyalty.
There are so many things Harry has done which show no remorse or accountability and seem entirely self serving.
