Topic : 02/06 Pill Popping Twins

 I just got through watching the first part of the pill popping twins and I have to say I am literally sick to my stomach. I just don't understand how anyone could be so inconsiderate of their own children. Ive been were they are now I had a bad addiction to crystal meth Ive went through 5 different rehabs and the moment i found out i was pregnant with my oldest daughter i was done out of the game for good finding out I was pregnant was the most sobering experiences ever, so for them to have children and then start using sickens me. I am only 21 now with two daughters and I am well on my way to a bachelors degree in social work and plan to go all the way for my masters then my Ph. degree .Throughout the entire show I kept thinking I just want to go into their home and show them that it doesn't have to be that way and all that chaos is not caused by their children.Oh and another thing if anyone and i mean anyone would ever talk to my kids the way the aunt was talking to the niece and then hitting her with a remote control oooow lord help us all cause you would never get away with that .I always felt that I was too young to be able to raise kids but know I realize as long as your kids best interest are at heart you can do it. I will pray for everyone involved in this situation.. AND WITH THAT I'M OUT. 

Cops and Child welfare is not the answer they do not respond to the right thing if they respond at all. The law throws out threats and small fines but not much more. Maybe a class or something but even the drug test are not right the people have the chance to cheat the test and everyone knows about it. I know now because it is a joke and it has happened in my family. I feel for you as the sister I know I have and am there with my brother and his kids. Several members of my family. I think you are doing the right thing now. Dr Phil is not God but seems to know the right things to say and street to walk down and how to attempt to get people down the right road and the means $$$$$ to help. I hope your sisters take it from him and do well. The one sister says she want to be happy. I know this feeling all to well. I understand her as well as anyone and so often am tempted to stop the inside pain with anything no matter right or wrong. I hope people stop judging and she feels cared about on part 2.

I know how the sister that called the show feels. She just wants help for her sisters and hates to see them this way. I do feel compassion for them because I know what they are going through however the do not have the right to put these children in this mess. I have a brother and sister who will take anything they can get their hands on if it will make them high. They both do crack and marijuana. They have stolen from their own children to support their habits. They will do anything they have to do to get drugs. And unless they are willing to get help which they both deny they need there is not a thing I can do about it. My sister had 4 kids. The twins mama kept until they were 5, they are 16 now. Maria who is 12 whom I have had since birth because she was selling herself on the streets for drugs and got pregnant then didnt want her because she is mixed. And a 3 year old whom she lost custody of when she went to jail for a year.

My parents enable them both. They beleive evey word that comes out of their mouths.

So I know what it is like to have family members hooked on drugs. It has got to the point that I dont care to see either one of them. They are full of lies and excuses. My other brother is in prison because he got hooked on crack after hanging out with the other 2 and he held up a bank.  My oldest brother is an alcholic.

These little kids need to be taken away from these people until they get their lives in order. You cant sit there and say your kids are the most important thing in your life and then treat them this way and subject them to this abuse. The most important thing in these twins lives are not hte children or anything else but drugs and where they are going to get their next high from. The one twin that said she was not as bad as her sister was flat out lying, in denial. You could tell they were both high as they sat there on stage.

They both need serious help before it is to late. But the number one priority is getting those kids out of that mess. And the mother needs help also. She is apparently an alcholic and not helping. But for the girls to say she needs to leave is stupid. That is her home not theirs. If anyone needs to leave it would be them.

Get the help you need and stand on your own 2 feet.

I have multiple back injuries, I have been out of work since 2006.I was an active person,whom enjoyed picking up the slack at work,Totally loyal to my job!I have alway's been one to put 100% into what ever I do!I have also been in constent pain.I cuoldn't walk at 41 yrs.I have been on pain pills for the pain that pain management  doesn't  take care of.Now I have had migrain headaches.The Dr has just put me on another pill for this.It makes me feel disoriented and I loose my balance.I don't like It, Iwill call my Dr.I have seen what the perscription drugs can do.My husbands twin has alway's abused drug's.He has caused so much heartache for this family,It's just not fair.He has many times endangered our lives.The last straw for us was when he was snorting  perscription psyc. Meds.He was so out of it ,it was scarey.I could tell so many stories that would scare anyone!I have had chairs thrown at me,a chef'ts knife thrown a half inch from my head.We have our freezer & frig. plugged into a surg protecter on the floor.My husband went down for coffee at 5am,walked in the kitchen there was 2inches of water in the floor.He could have been electricuted over stupidity.He has to have that high no matter what the coast.He is one that doesn't want to change.I pray these twins make the choice to clean thier lives up.It is alway's on my mind when I get these scripts.I know what they can do.I do know the children in their care need to be protected & I'm sure Dr.Phil will see to that.I get very anoid seeing this.I have alway's wanted a child,I geuss God has other plans for me.These girls have issues,once they deal with these issues apart,they can handle life together!!I do wish them the best!

I am devastated for you.  You are doing the right thing.  I hope you realize that when your sisters lash out at you that is just because they are not well.  I know that you are doing the best you can by your nieces and nephews by making people aware this is going on so they can all get help.

I couldn't help noticing how beautiful those twins were in their before photos.  My heart just breaks when I see what those drugs have done to their bodies and faces. 

This was the saddest story I have heard of in a long time and I hope this family finds help.

Hey ladies "hold your head up high" you made the choice to take these pills and you can make the choice "not to take them", which obviously is the right thing to do, and the best thing to do for yourselves and for your children.  Your children are precious and need their mom's in their lives, where will they be without you?  Perhaps on the same road your on, if you don't make some positive changes ASAP.  It will be tougher getting off them than it was getting on them, with a whole lot of determination and will power I know you both can do it !!!! It will take a total life change, but if its what you want you will survive through it all.  Don't be upset with Maria or embarassed by her reaching out for help, someday you will thank her for what she has done.  It takes a big heart and a lot of love for you both to do what she did.  Sometimes love is tough and powerful.  My heart goes out to all of you, I really believe good will come from it all.
