But children are parents responsibility. Of course he has some ownership over his kids having substance abuse issues.
I have thought about this a good bit. Though I went through a lot, Ive come to the conclusion that it would have been very difficult to hold my parents responsible for the stupid stuff I did when I was younger. Obviously every decision a parent makes can affect a child but sometimes when you do the best you can, the worst thing you did to a child is pass on a particular gene. That may or may not be the case here but who among us knows them well enough to qualify to say.
