I think I speak for everyone when I say that this doesn't affect our feelings about Jodie one bit. She was the quintessential middle child of early 90's television: As Stephanie Tanner, she lacked the maturity to be a role model, yet wasn't cute enough to be precocious. She was just...annoying. She didn't have the famous brother that DJ/Candice Cameron had in Kirk (please click this link, it's incredible). She didn't have the flowing hair of Jesse/John Stamos (who incidentally is showing signs of life with Jake in Progress-- and who would have thought there was life after F.H.?), and she didn't have the creepiness of the Olsen Twins®.
Speaking of which, here's my favorite part of the "Jodie as Meth Head" saga:
After a three-day "lost" weekend, reportedly followed by an intervention staged by her former Full House costars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, John Stamos and Bob Saget, Sweetin checked herself in to the Promises rehab facility for six weeks of intense treatment.How far gone do you need to be for MK&A to stage an intervention??? More importantly, ask yourself this brain-bender:
If MK&A were part of my intervention, I'd...
(a) Seriously consider staying on drugs to see how many times they visit
(b) Seriously consider whether I was still high at the time
(c) Vomit a little
(d) All of the above
And don't tell Jodie, but she looks better now! People are talking about her again, and writing articles about her life! What kind of lesson does any girl learn when meth's been so good to a childhood star? Without meth, Jodie was just a washed-up has-been, married to a cop on the LAPD, 24 years old and bored. She couldn't even get an E! True Hollywood Story.
The Olsens got an A&E Biography special.
Jodie Sweetin did crank for fun.

That Kirk Cameron site is truly terrifying. Who would have thought he would end up that way?!
