Honey, I'm home

Had a phone call this evening from one of the mums from school with very disturbing news! She was telling me that one of the lads that Elliot plays with was offered drugs down at the wee park by a known group of troublemakers in our village. However, one of the names mentioned was one not normally associated with this bad crowd - but my son enjoys hanging out with him sometimes. Anyway, the lad who was offered the drugs had the presence of mind to decline the offer and go home to tell his mum. The mother has chosen to defend her sons right to anonymity and has not informed the police! Rumour has it that there 'may be' 2 possible dealers in the village - which has only just come to light - but no one is prepared to actually do anything about it. The lady who foned me has asked me to respect the mother and son rights of the lad in question which I have reluctantly agreed to do...But on speaking to another mother, she knew all about it too and I havent promised her anything. In fact she agrees with me that something should be getting done about this. I've now had a wee word with my own son and he's heard a few things kicking around at school and at the end of the day, he is my number one priority as are my girls. There is apparently a community council meeting on Thursday night to which I'm going to go to and see what transpires there. Meanwhile I've just laid down the law to Elliot and told him in no uncertain terms to stay away from 2 lads who's names have been brought up in convo. I'm absolutely livid that the original mum has chosen not to do anything about it really, but I'm more livid about the fact that although the Police do actually know of this group of kids around here, they are saying that nothing can be done as they are minors.... In a wee village here and the rabble are getting away with this.... its absolutely unbelievable!!!!

Jilly you OK?

I really don't know what to say :0( I hope you can get something done but PLEASE PLEASE be careful. love becxxxxx

What sort of parent lets a drug dealer roam the streets offering their child allsorts and NOT report it? Sorry but this MUST BE REPORTED asap. It doesn't matter if they are minors.... what matters is saving the life of 1 child who may just say YES!! Please call it in Jilly!! xx

OOOh Jilly, thats worrying. You go to that meeting, and tell them everything, you don't have to mention names, but you can certainly point the finger in the right direction. I have one question concerning the mother who feels she is protecting her children by saying nothing. Is it better to protect by saying nothing, or is it better to protect by exposing and removing the threat to her children? Now, have this glass of wine, you need it.

oh jilly i can see why you are so angry, if it was my son i would report it, would she still stay quiet if her son had taken the drugs and ended up in hospital? no i think not, i hope it gets sorted soon before some young child ends up in hospital ill kimx
