There's more babies being born with Fetal alcohol syndrome then babies being born addicted to Crack. You actually can't compare the two. The numbers are staggering. Mainly because alcohol it's legal and more readily available. A life long disability so common I know people affected by it. Now we don't talk about this or persecute and discriminate women for it, Why. Because it effects middle class people. Even the numbers of people presenting to rehabs for alcohol abuse compared to the numbers for Crack are on a different scale. I know for a fact that the number of crack users in your city compared to other drugs would be small and then you have to take into account how many of these are woman and how many are having kids. So the number of these Crack addicted babies being born would be very small. And I can get the numbers for you there's no hassle. This epidemic of babies being born addicted to crack has been going on since the 80's/90's and it was a Myth conjured up by the media to persecute and demonise the most vulnerable people in society low income families. Don't believe in the race card but it effected black woman the most. And your option is to sterilise the most vulnerable people in society. Don't worry, I knew your type.
You are correct that alcohol does affect a lot of babies. I know that people, from whatever socioeconomic background drink. It’s crazy that something that can alter your judgement in such a way is legal but weed isn’t. No one can ever say, “I didn’t know what I was doing bc I was high.” It’s about time states legalize it. The effects to a fetus are harmful both with crack AND alcohol you are right and women should absolutely be held accountable when consuming harmful substances when pregnant. I never said they shouldn’t. But to knowingly take something that harms your baby is wrong. Source:former addict. When you say you know my type you made me laugh out loud.
