I truly understand how you feel. This is so triggering for me so much trauma kids went through in the crack era 😢 someone needs to do a special on the kids that survived that era and how it affected them mentally. I mean the short term and long term affects of seeing your parents on crack and suffering. God bless those who abused the drugs and the people who were affected from the parents, family and whole communities who suffered.

This drug destroyed my family and childhood. Crack caused my mother to give my brother and I away. I was raised on and off by my grandparents, saw things no child should see. Today im all thats left out of my mom,dad, and brother. I broke the cycle for my children, thats the only positive. I still have PTSD from this era

@Cardb33 16 күн бұрын

I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. You're right no child should have to see that or live through that. I know we don't know each other but I'm really proud of you for breaking that cycle for your children. I had to break the cycle of the drug world myself. I don't have kids yet but I won't allow them to go through what I went through growing up. Police raids, cops beating my dad in to a coma front of me while he was handcuffed laying on the ground. I promised myself I'd never allow my children to go through that and rather than go in to that horrible lifestyle I got in to a trade and it saved my life as well as the lives of my future children. I wish you and your family all the best in life.

@@Cardb33 I'm proud of you too. Good for you not bringing innocent children into the world of drugs. You will be a great mother some day. We have similar stories. My brother was shot unarmed at a traffic stop by the police, we buried him in 2019. My mother went to prison when I was a kid for Murder behind a Crack deal. My dad died in 2022 after a life on Crack. My kids don't know that life. I got married and together we built a solid home life before starting our family. I'm sorry for all you went through too.

For most people asking about how crack was used in cigarettes and etc.. people would crumble up the crack and take some of the tobacco out and replace it with the crumbs of crack.

I'll never forget being a kid and running thru my friends house to get to the patio and the kitchen table was littered with dope and paraphernalia. I knew what it wasn't a good thing just based on life experience at that young of an age some of us saw so much that stole our little child hoods. Lol. Sad but true

@@JohnWickkkk agreed they are all the same team, but that includes the black power structure as well. Reagan was surrounded by CIA and they tried to unalive him when he wasn’t following the plan. CIA organized guns and drugs into the hood. Crime bill locked them up forever afterwards. In that way, yes, same people 👍

No crack was way worse. Fentanyl has killed more people but Crack destroyed whole communities and many families and lives were ruined forever.
