    When the news about Ben Cousins (AFL) addiction first came out we were talking about it at work. Two things I took from that were that the 20 to 30ish age group were all clued up on the ins and out of usage. The second thing was that they were all adamant that there was no way back for him. I argued that he would have the best treatment available. As time has shown they were right.
    Blame the parents? I think not. All reports were they were a tight caring family.
    I don't think people realize how widespread the problem is. It is a global problem. I don't have the answers but think there should be a political focus on it.
    Jackie Lambie tried but she was speaking to an empty room.
