"I didn't know my dad for a long time. My dad was on drugs and my dad was at the VA Hospital, my dad was off in his own world selling drugs or using them or there would be crack heads in the house or whatever it would be"
- Shia LaBeouf
About this Quote
This quote by Shia LaBeouf paints a heartbreaking photo of his youth. It is clear that his daddy was struggling with dependency, which this had a profound impact on Shia's life. His father was missing for a long time, either in the VA Hospital or off in his own world using or offering drugs. This meant that Shia needed to grow up in a chaotic environment, with crack heads in your house. It is an unfortunate pointer of the disastrous effects of dependency, and how it can tear apart families. Shia's story is an effective pointer of the importance of supporting those fighting with dependency, and of the requirement for more resources to assist them.
This quote is written / told by Shia LaBeouf somewhere between June 11, 1986 and today. He was a famous Actor from USA.
