Saying all that I understand it's a sickness but given the opportunities and talents he had making excuses for him is silly. At the end of the day we're all responsible for our actions.

So you've dealt with it.. just saying maybe think about your wording a bit. I don't think she "liked" what she was doing very much. I grew up with a family of addicts, myself included, and believe me none of us "like" what we did/do.
No idea what this guy's actual problems are, so I guess we can't say much. Not to compare substances, but I don't even know what a hardcore weed addict would be like in terms of destructiveness. Seems to me that he'd only really be harming himself, which I guess is why he continues to get support and more chances. If he was into pills it might be different.
