We can't help it.
I didn't like Amy Winehouse's music, or her reported lifestyle(remember we swallow what the media feeds us).........and I know celebs don't particularly want to be role models for the youngsters growing up, but the fact is, they are, whether they want to be or not.......she was not a good role model.

I am sad for her family. It is they who bear the burden of pain now....and the 'if only's'.........her torment is over, theirs is just beginning.
I wish the media would leave them in peace to do their grieving privately.

I understand this Marg like I have posted before it isnt as black and white as it seems to some people.

Yes there are lots out there that screw the system for whatever they can get to try and get off drugs and dont succeed and are not referred to very nicly which is quite right.

There are also some people that have not done this and tried to sort thier problems out by them selves but are still getting tarred with the same brush.

You cannot come on here and post that people with a drugs related problems are all bad people and could have quite easily have said "No" to drugs, it aint as easy as that.

Until you have had the experience you cannot judge.
