- Abstract:
- (Critical) This program gives a timely, relevant presentation of the progressive elements inherent in heroin addiction. The interview of a woman heroin addict in her twenties, a mother of young children, highlights the increasing disturbance in the parenting role as well as the dichotomy between street life style and a more acceptable life style. The discussion of treatment is limited to the drug-free community. The content is presented with a clear developmental design; discussion and interview segments as well integrated. The program shows the addict as a real person instead of as a stereotype and demonstrates the potential for understanding which can be achieved through treatment. It is capable of engaging an audience and retaining involvement and interest throughout.
