Just a thought I had, like what can a ten year old do(besides mass murder & accidents) that messes up their life so badly that it is unrecoverable?

It has to be something that is self inflicted and not something that is the cause of others around them.

9 year olds don't have "self choice" to use drugs.

Evem adults most often don't have it. Addiction starts with trauma, often in mother's womb. If mother is under stress while pregnant, huge and long stress, child has much bigger chances to become an addict.
