Comfortably Smug

You, you,

This has to be prevented before the drug problem and the 15 or 18 rehabs.

At that point, and I've talked to so many parents of seriously drug-addled kids.

I don't know how to say this without sounding really brutal, but at that point, the kid becomes like a nightmare.

You're saddled with them because they're yours and they're not capable of supporting themselves and they're out there in society and you can't just say they're society's problem.

You have some obligation to society to do something to protect society from them and make sure that they're not just in a tent on the street that you walk past.

But

A lot of these parents know they're dangerous.

They're actually, if not just suicidal, homicidal.

And this is not minority report.

You cannot have them arrested before they've committed a crime.

And yet, you know, they're likely to.

And, you know, your family may be the first victims.

It's a nightmare.

This has to be headed off early.

And with mental illness, it's even more far more complicated.

Yes, it's just, I don't know.

That's another problem with Hollywood is like as talented as Rob Reiner was and made so many movies that we all love.

Now I look back and I wonder who paid the price for all the time he spent on those films that I loved.

You know, where was Nick during those years?
