According to The Scottish Sun “the number of babies hooked on drugs has reached a shocking all-time high.”
Junkie moms who continue to abuse deadly substances from heroin to canabis, often experience painful withdrawals which they pass on to their babies. According to scots Labour Leader Iain Gray, One in every 264 newborns suffer from addiction even before they’ve taken their first breath.
Shocking still is that 1 in every 98 expectant mothers admit to endangering the lives of the unborn child by taking drugs during pregancy – these eyeopening figures were taken over a 18 month period research study.
