TV show sesamestreet to reveal character has drug-addict mother, in bid to help children affected by the issue

"Yeah, a sickness that makes people feel like they have to take drugs or drink alcohol to feel okay," adds Karli.Karli and Salia also hold up pictures of flowers, with petals representing feelings like sadness, anger and happiness - and talk about how to deal with them."These boys and girls are the first to get hurt and, unfortunately, the last to get help," he said.

"For them to see Karli and learn that it's not their fault and this stuff is hard to talk about and it's okay to have these feelings, that's important. And that there's hope." The famous children's show has previously tackled subjects such as puppets with HIV, jailed parents, autism and homelessness.

sesamestreet WTF! Are they nuts or what? No more Sesame Street for my granddaughter then? Why do these people want to expose all children to this sort of lifestyle as though it is the norm? Maybe in the States but not here in UK, not as far as I’m aware! 😡😡😡😡

sesamestreet Great idea! And while sesamestreet is being so progressive in it’s thinking - how about introducing a muppet character who prevents yet another tragic mass shooting by banning weapons......?
