A local TV station also did a series on 'the heroin triangle' in Atlanta. It's scary. I have a daughter in middle school and these things terrify me. Sorry to highjack the thread.

Here's a link to the Atlanta local news series on the heroin crisis in the northern Atlanta burbs. It is certainly eye-opening for those who are under the impression that heroin is still an inner city drug or that heroin still has a stigma attached to it.
Would many/any parents know if their teenager texted his/her dealer, left a $20 under your front doormat, and picked up the heroin delivery from the mat after the dealer dropped it off?? Because that's what's happening.
