One theme of "About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia is that family is always family.

Which quotation from the text best supports the conclusion that Russell's family supports him as he is?

Question 8 options:

"Openly discussing Russell’s illness and seeking help and information would be ideal, but it is not likely to happen within my family."


"Daddy, who worked in real estate, got Russell odd jobs cleaning houses newly listed on the market, but the work wasn’t steady."


"Besides, my big brother helped me paint my dorm room, gave me twenty dollars, and brought me a television set from home."


"Even when we were much younger, living in California, he would go out of his way to alienate our friends for no particular reason."

The answer is "Daddy, who worked in real estate, got Russell odd jobs cleaning houses newly listed on the market, but the work wasn't study." The reason is because while Russell's parents had a hard time accepting the reality that Russell had a mental disease, they still did their best to support and help him financially.
