PLN week 11-2

This week I read a blog that was about alcohol titled "Why???" by Crosby. In this blog he asked the questions

"Why is alcohol a protected drug?"

Then he askes

"If Joe Camel got yanked off of ads because he appealed to kids, then why is
Captain Morgan still used?

What I thought mattered form this blog was the issue of alcohol and what is does and how it effects me. This was an interesting blog for me because alcohool is a big problem in our world today including other types of drugs. There are so many people messing up their lives with alcohol and drugs and people doing wrong. This problem getting in the way of what they want to accomplish and how people get addicted to it and not know how to stop.

This matters to me because alcohol is the reason why I don't know my father and why he left my brother, sister, mom and I when I was so young. It ruend his life because just recently I was given a chance to know him and he told me that when I was young he drank a lot and wouldn't be good to my mom, and I would hear stories of him doing this and that and what kind of person he was and I kind of thank him for leaving because of the person people portrayed him as when I didn't know him. It is not fun not knowing who your father is and that is why this blog kind of stuck out to me and also this problem of alcohol and drugs.
