Synopsis

It's Not My Fault: A Note to My Teachers, is the true story of a drug baby. Most of the time, we hear from the experts, but this story is from personal experience. Our schools are flooded with children, who are experiencing a combination of drug-related problems. We can't place them all in special education classes. Hopefully, teachers will have a better understanding of the effects of drugs on the defenseless ones and will be motivated to work with each child as an individual.
