Heartbreaking story.
This shite is no joke, and not to be messed with. Don't play around with opioids kids. And if they're able to track down whoever passed those pills around, they're going to be spending a lot of time in jail, as they should.
Also, I get what they're saying but this is a terribly worded line under the image.
ETA: the actual deaths happened some time ago, and I see this is an updated article. Searched, didn't find anything.

I know a family that lost two sons to suicide about a year and a half apart. Both with severe treatment resistant bipolar disorder. Can't imagine the pain.

If someone is dealing a drug illegally, they are liable for the outcome.
Yes, the kids shouldn't take them in the first place and they took them on their own. But that does not absolve the person providing them of any culpability.

Article says the kids were never in trouble for drugs or alcohol before. That of course doesn't mean they weren't using before this event, but it reads as though they were good, normal kids.
People just don't realize how dangerous they can be when misused or used recreationally, especially with alcohol.

You can do everything you possibly can and it may still not be enough to save them.

Oversimplification. Should they have just chained them to their beds?

It's actually Nancy's Fault. Nancy and her program were geared towards cocaine and marijuana b/c of the guilt she had over her Husband's administration causing the Crack Epidemic. They had my generation TURRRIFIED of cocaine and marijuana.
But while they focused on Cocaine Cowboys, Big Pharma and lobbyists in DC said, "hold my $500 glass of wine and watch what this Oxycontin shite can do".
Here we are.

It's not totally unlike the driver of a getaway car in a robbery being charged with murder if one of the guys doing the robbing shoots and kills someone. Holding drug dealers accountable for the outcome is not new.

I think this is being over dramatic.
It is an article about a family who had two sons die from opioid overdose and what the the mother, father and their other two children are doing to help clean up their community. They work with law enforcement, etc so that other families don't have to experience what they did.. Losing their sons to opioid overdose
Clickbait is misleading headlines that gets people to click on an article that is about something other than you perceive it to be, based on the headline. Example: 90% of the articles on yahoo.
