Jasmine shares what life was like growing up with a Mom who was an addict.  One of the craziest times of her life was when she was 17 and working in a bar and her mom would embarrass her by coming to the same bar and getting totally wasted.  Jasmine has a perspective that is so helpful for understanding what so many people live with growing up, a perspective that should help those who have had a more advantageous upbringing learn how important it is to show compassion instead of condemnation for others who are often simply doing the best they can do with the cards they've been dealt.
