Quote, paraphrase, and citation

Quote
"Each year in the United States there are over 3,000,000 cases of child abuse, only 1/3 are confirmed child abuse or neglect. Each year 1,200 children die due to child abuse and neglect. Of these children eighty percent are under the age of five. Family members cause 90 percent of child abuse or neglect."

Paraphrase
Every year the United States has more than 3,000,000 reports on child abuse. Out of the 3,000,000 children a third was claimed to be by carelessness and manhandling a child. And every year, out of 3,000,000 children, 1,200 of these kids pass away because of people manhandling them and the carelessness people show children. Most of these kids that have been reported are not even five years old yet. 90 percent of these cases are caused by loved ones.
