Addiction is often seen as a 'grown-up' issue, but it impacts children in ways that aren't always visible.'

In a clear nod to the U.S.'s opioid crisis, the producers of "Sesame Street" introduce Karli. Karli's fictional mom is a recovering addict who attends regular meetings to maintain her sobriety. In a Wednesday clip, the show features longtime favorite Elmo talking to Karli about Karli's mother, who is addicted to opioids.

They act like this is breaking new ground; it's not. Snuffleupagus was a heroin junkie.

This is dumb.

Sesame Street should help my kid learn the alphabet, not how to identify crackhead parents.

Oh goodnight. Why can't we let little kids have a childhood without dragging them into adult situations via television programs?
