I'm trying to pinpoint the decade when the CIA allegedly dumped cocaine in black

18. I taught the first wave of them

I taught in a community ravaged by crack in the late 1990s when the fist crack babies were making it into the junior highs and high schools.

Those kids were different from, but similar to fetal alcohol syndrome, kids. Whether that was because of being hooked in utero, their life situations as youth growing up around drugs, family instability, or something else, I cannot statistically or definitively say. But they were often shorter fused, less impulse control, struggled with even simple directions that had more than one step at a time, more violent, and a slew of other problems.

Again, impossible to separate out the post birth contributors form the prebirth contributors but I can tell you that they were definitely more difficult than the rest of the students.
