> You can, you should teach your kid about the dangers of drugs and addiction. Still you wouldn't bring him in a crack house...
I know this is a little tongue-in-cheek, but I have a 15 year-old and we lived downtown in a major city until 5th grade. Mom and Dad definitely talked about the dangers of drugs, but I don't think any of those talks made anywhere near the impression of coming across someone passed out in the entrance to a subway station with a needle stuck in there arm. Our trip was delayed while I made sure the person was still breathing and then summoned medical help.
