I've seen what it can do to a person. Someone could offer me super-comfortable financial security for the rest of my life, in exchange for trying it, and I STILL wouldnt touch that shit.
To be perfectly honest, if it was a choice between heroin and methamphetamine, I'd rather my kid was on heroin. Of course I'd rather they were not on ANY such drug because they are all very bad for you, but at least heroin mostly leads to nodding out and drooling on yourself, not violent outbursts. It's the addiction that makes heroin the problem, not the effects of the stone.
Are you more likely to overdose on heroin than methamphetamines? They talk about heroin overdoses way more than any other drug.
