Baby 'killed by addict mother's breastmilk'

Drug abuse can be fatal. This is not exaggeration and is proven true with the misfortune happened on a baby in Australia. The murderer, the baby himself? Of course not! No doubt, the murderer was an addict mother allegedly addicted to drug. The baby was a two-month old boy, Georgia.

Opinion: Albeit many analogous incidents had happen although not on the baby, still there are many obstinate people refuse to turn over the new leaf to make a brighter future for themselves. May be that's the reason why drugs proliferation can be halted effectively and protracts for a long time. The only admonition is that for those who are curious on drugs or addicted to drug, think twice about the love one before doing anything that will cost the whole life. One step in and there will no way out!!!

Nonetheless, Australian government should also reconsider their education policy to halt the spreading of this epidermis. Prevention is better than cure after all.
