What deviations can children of drug addicts have?

Often, their children are responsible for the sins of their parents. To families of drug addicts this is by no means the least. This is one of the main risk groups for the birth of sick babies. Children born from drug addicts always have some kind of pathology. The use of psychotropic substances has never led to anything good. Even if the addict “got stuck”, for about the next 10 years he is not recommended to have children with him.

Some, ignoring all the advice of doctors, still become parents. What deviations can children of drug addicts have? When even light cannabis products are used, which are legalized in some countries, the manifestation of various pathologies in a newborn is almost inevitable. Especially often they have the so-called sudden death syndrome. Such a terrible event can happen at any time during the first year of a baby's life. Dystrophy is another common disease in children of marijuana addicts. Very often, women who smoked weed before or during pregnancy give birth to dead children.

In the same case, if the father or mother used, say, cocaine, the unborn baby may have an urinary system disorder. Also such children of drug addicts suffer from sudden strokes. It is with "cocaine" drug addicts that most often dead children are born.

The use of heroin leads to the birth of mentally retarded babies with impaired speech and motor skills. The chemical drug LSD often causes placental abruption and miscarriage.

In born babies, doctors often diagnose genetic mutations.

Not only do children of drug addicts often have a number of diseases, they also do not receive proper care. After all, it usually happens that their parents do not need anything but the next dose. Being in her search or drugged with any drug, they absolutely do not pay any attention to their baby. This is another terrible consequence of drug use. Left to their own devices, such children often subsequently become drug addicts or criminals themselves.

The inborn deformities of such babies are often simply terrifying. Meanwhile, the children of drug addicts (photos confirm their presence of violations and malformations) are absolutely not to blame for the weaknesses of their parents. Doctors around the world are looking for means that could ease their fate. For example, recently, scientists from Israel learned how to repair a heroin-damaged brain.

Unfortunately, this development is still only in the experimental stage. In its course, experiments were performed on mice. Females were injected with specific doses of heroin. Having “planted” them in this way on a drug, the appearance of mice was awaited. Sick calves were injected with stem cells in the hippocampus. As a result of the operation, the "local" cells began to actively divide, as a result of which the damaged brain structure was restored. Perhaps the continuation of these studies will lead to a positive result. In this case, it will be possible to save many children from various pathologies, whose parents actively used heroin, and they will no longer have to pay for the sins of their mothers and fathers.

The use of drugs leads to the most sad consequences, and the worst is not only for the injecting, smoking and sniffing themselves. Even in early youth, it is worth taking care of your future life and the fate of your offspring. Sick children of drug addicts suffering innocent - what could be worse?
