No J DUB it doesnt seem callous.
You hit the nail on the head. After scanning the website for this kid, it is unfortunate that his parents must reach out to a substance and blame it for their underlying problem. The Powerpoint Presentation with regard to there foundation lifts heavily from various web sites and regurgitates old steriod myths. It even lifts content from Rick Collins book, all manipulaterd to vent their frustration on their tragedy. But the presentation does not say," take responsibility for the people that live under your own roof, attend your childs football games, go see them practice and keep an ongoing dialogue with your kids". Instead it leaves that responsibility up to coaches and teachers. Steroids weren't this kids problem.
