Remember a video I shared here back in April about the drug war in Mexico telling you the story of Maria whose son disappeared? This time, meet Mexican children, who are affected and influenced by the war on drugs just as the grown- ups. Because its their fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, cousins, uncles and friends who disappear and never come back. "The war on drugs must stop!"
