How would you feel about your child spending time with their friend's family - of which one parent is battling an addiction to painkillers ?
Would your answer change depending on your child's age?
Would you answer change depending on the level of addiction (ie glaringly obvious addiction vs the 'i had no idea there was a problem' type addiction)?
Would you hold stipulations that your child could only be in/around the family if the non-addicted parent was there?
Would you openly discuss your concerns with the family?
