Amir Khan-

I hope one of the series will cover youngsters who are in drugs (substance) - how they get in it, symptoms, and few examples of those who have come out of drugs and leading a successful life.

Drugs (substance) is a big issue amongst the youngsters, and many parents do not know how to help these youngsters to out of this addiction and then start a normal life.

I hope your program will reflect on this burning issue with few examples of recoveries- it will be for many parents as seeing "light at the end of the dark tunnel".

i agree, its a matter that needs to be discussed... drugs (substance) is one issue faced by the whole world...

it would be great if there were discussions not only on how they recovered, but how sometimes, when society refuses to accept the youngsters who get clean after being addicts, they turn back to drugs (substances)...

That is a lovely thought. Most people seem to assume that drug abuse is either not so rampant in India or is limited to a certain class of society. The truth is that out of a population of a billion, around 7.5 crore Indians are drug addicts.

I'm sure it WILL be one of the issues that will be covered.Its a problem that affects all strata of society...the difference is only in the severity,the substances that are abused & the economic ravages caused. A greater honesty in accepting the fact of an addict in the family...would help the family deal with the attendant problems.In most relatively well off,urban families,a great amount of time that SHOULD be spent in de-addiction,is utterly wasted in denial of facts that are staring you in the face.
