"A conservative estimate is that one in six children in school today has a parent who is dependent on or addicted to alcohol or other drugs." - Leah Davies.

This quote came from an article that talks about how people can make a difference in the lives of an abuser and how they can help those people. Also, it talks about how drug abuse can affect kids of an abuser and what the signs are to tell who those kids might be. I chose this quote because it gives an insight on how important and wide spread this issue is. Also, I believe when people read this quote they will want to try to reduce this issue and help those kids of drug abusing parents. This quote uses the persuasive technique of research and uses it in a way to strengthen the importance of this issue.
