Laboring Mom Bears Teen, Finds the Strength to Scold

One Powerful Mother,” the latest PSA by Partnership for a Drug-Free America, casts light on a powerful woman indeed. Moments after giving miserable vagina-decimating birth to a teenager, then having her heart shredded to pieces as he rolls his eyes and starts walking off, she still has the strength to raise her head — ever so slightly — and say, “Don’t even think about going to Kevin’s.”

The message is swiftly and cleverly delivered: it takes one powerful mother to have a teen. And an even tougher one is called for to keep that teen drug-free.
