Drug violence can effect everyone around that person using drugs. For example kids who grow up with parents who use are typically left with no support or love from there parents. The parents are usually never there for there child and always trying to figure out where to get there next high from. Normally to them that is more important to them than there child. The child is usually taken away from the parents in times like this can be placed with a family member but sometimes that does not happen and they are but into foster care. In foster care you can move around alot and then can bring on things like feeling abandoned.

Answer:Addiction affects the entire family in many ways. The specific effects depend on which person in the family unit has the problem. Relationships, finances, safety, and more are all at risk.

For example, children with a parent with an addiction problem grow up with less support and guidance. On the other hand, parents with children who abuse substances have different issues. Additionally, children growing up with a sibling with a problem have difficulties. Even spouses of an addict also experience an extraordinary impact.
