“Sesame Street” A girl with a parent who suffers from drug addiction appears October 11, 16:02
A new girl character with a mother who suffers from drug and alcohol addiction has appeared in the popular American children's program “Sesame Street”. In the United States, people who become addicted to drugs due to abuse of painkillers are constantly becoming a social problem, and the program producers want to tell you that even if you have a family that suffers from addiction, you do not have to worry about it alone.
On the 9th of this month in the popular American children's program “Sesame Street”, which began in 1969, a character of a 6-year-old girl named “Carly” with a mother who suffers from drug and alcohol addiction appeared.
“Carly” confessed that children with addicted parents gathered in the same way as me and attended a meeting to share their worries, and other characters said, “I feel better when I talk about my problems. I will encourage you to hold your hand and support it.
In the United States, the abuse of painkillers called “opioids” has caused many people who become drug addicts to become social problems, and on the program side, 5.7 million people under the age of 11 have addicted symptoms. He points out that he lives with his parents.
And if parents are suffering from addiction, they often have a hard time with the child, so they don't have to worry about it alone.
“Sesame Street” has created new characters for children with autism and homelessness to address social challenges.
