    More than 1M children in the U.S. now live with grandparents, primarily because of their parents’ addiction to opioids and other drugs. Tonight, Bill Whitaker meets with children raised in the wreckage of the opioid crisis, getting a chance at normalcy. https://cbsn.ws/2Kmoyz0 pic.twitter.com/uUD6lN5JRh

        Wow...I don’t remember this type of coverage when the Crack epidemic ravaged the Black community. Parents were incarcerated and Black grandmothers and other family members had to take up the slack. Only an epidemic when it affects white people huh?

        How come no minority is affected by this epidemic? Crack cocaine already affected their life and they know better. Remember all the stuff they said about crack addicted people, especially kids. Nancy said it best. Say no to drugs

        I love how this is an issue because white housewives are now self medicating after contracting tennis elbow. Meanwhile, heroin has been a problem in the inner city since the 70s and NOW it's an "epidemic " smh

        Yep, personal responsibility of the doctor to correctly diagnose..then comes personal responsibility of patient. Totally agree. Problem is most people i know got addicted becuz of horrible patient care. This must be fixed or the epidemic will continue!!
