About This Quote
The reference to the children in this quote is especially interesting. My guess is that the author is talking about the children of drug users and addicts and making a statement about how they will not be swayed by the words of those who do not understand their plight. They don’t need to hear your excuses or your explanations or what you think they want to hear. They know what they are going through and no amount of yelling or lecturing will change that.
