The main build- Two 19-year-old residents of Gateway House narcotics rehabilitation center Monday told their stories of travel from homes where they had been unloved and ignored into the drug subculture of marijuana, pill, alcohol and heroin users to about 100 parents of students in the Chicago Latin School, Clark Street and North Avenue. Most parents sat and listened attentively to the presentations in the' private school's modern, shell-shaped auditorium. But as they walked to discussion groups, one mother wrapped in a mink coat told another, "Well, it was interesting. But it really is impossible for any of us to relate to the impoverished." The reaction is similar to that of most parents: I love my child.

He gets most of the things he wants and needs. We have a lovely home, two cars, and take two-week family vacations together. He could never end up in rags in a dirty back room with heroin addicts.

Up to 60 channels are available so we don't feel our demands are excessive." me feel more at ease with them." She soon moved into a group of friends who introduced her to marijuana, speed, acid and finally heroin. "We never did anything as a family except watch TV. I needed to know somebody liked me," she said.

She Omits Details Karen stopped there. She did i not tell the gory details about i how money for heroin was obtained, as most Gateway residents do. Maybe she sensed that would not be a hurdle Latin School students would have to overcome. Phil, the other speaker, was more graphic. "I had no family life.

My parents were divorced when I was three. My father was an alcoholic, and every time I saw him he was high." His parents never had time for I him, and he sought friendship among heavy drinkers, then marijuana smokers, then heroin addicts. He was hooked much the same as Karen. "What we're doing at Gate-1 way is growing up again. The most important thing there is 1 learning how to have relation-'; ships with people," Karen said.
