      At least his step father told him straight up and didn't just kiss him goodbye. That was the worst story I've ever heard. The poor kid thought his dad would be there when he got home.

    His step-father betrayed him on a level that it's difficult to understand. That the love of his young son was not enough to defeat the drugs demonstrates how powerful addiction is. However, I am certain Dave's honesty about his situation will be his salvation.

    Imagine how his son felt when he left school that day and his Dad was nowhere to be found. How can you do that to a kid ? Maybe the kid is better off without him in his life but I do not see how anyone with a conscience could live with themselves after doing that to a kid

    U can't feel love out there because ur love is with ur son. U left him and need to get back in his life so he doesn't feel like u did when ur pos step dad kicked u out. Break the cycle and do better for ur son. He doesn't deserve to be abandoned. It's so sad. Kensington is a wasteland

      I can definitely see your point, although I've definitely made some stupid decisions as an adult myself. Lol
      I think a lot of these people's addictions probably started out when they were children, teenagers, etc. Unfortunately, addiction just doesn't stop when they become an adult.

I hope your son has a great life and grows up to be the best person he can. Thats who ill pray for. stop with the poor me shit.

      I definitely understand where you're coming from. Unfortunately, addiction makes you do (and choose) some crazy things. I'm definitely not justifying it, though. You're right. The kids are the ones who truly suffer.
      I was a drug addict myself for 18 years. I've been homeless and all that, so I get it. I used to sleep on a metro bench. Thankfully, this April will give me 10 years clean, but it was hell fighting those demons. I loved my mother and my daughter more than anything, but I still couldn't stop using drugs.
      I'm glad all that is behind me now, and I pray those that I interview can find the same happiness I have out of life one day. 🙏
