  1. some choose it for one reason or another. others can never get jobs- maybe because they are prior felons, mentally unstable, all sorts of stuf. others are run aways, sum are protestors to society. stop and ask one sumday. you might be enlightened.


  2. There are a lot of reasons...some have no where else to go and no where to turn...they do what they do to survive and that is about all they can do...you can't write things like "I live in the alley behind joe's pizza, 2nd box to the right" on a job application, and many homeless people are under educated and not qualified enough for many jobs...there is also the issue of hygiene, as they probably don't have clean clothes, deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo, etc. so if they walked in for an interview, they would probably be turned away...I think that the most important thing to remember about this is that they are still human beings and deserve to be treated with dignity...I have heard that making eye contact with them and acknowledging that they are still people is worth more to them than a handout by someone who wont even look at them...most of them did not choose this lifestyle, but they cant get the help they need to change...some of these people have no one in life...no family, no friends, just themselves and their fellow streetmates...

  3. for me it was escaping from  an abusive husband(now ex)

    to  mother's home which became a controling and  another

    form of abuse(she was dying and knew it). The streets were

    better than the h**l i was in.  I at lest had a small travil trailer

    with a very small va disablity check, to help and not proud

    to dive into trash cans for bottles, and cans. shelter you

    have alot of requirements to get houseing if avail....

    work was very sparce for my husband the employers favorite

    line was "you're to over quilifed for the job" instead of the truth

    your age(62). Me working would/is difficult do to physical

    limitations, health etc.

    If we drank or did drugs  assistance was more readly availble.

    we were 2 old persons trying to keep our life together the

    best we could. Family help was the very last thing I want'd

    after my mom's demented lies thankfully my family begain

    to see and here from other caregivers in the family as to

    they were experencing which mirriored my remarks.

      truthfully there are some people who do need help, many

    outthere that don't.They  just want the world to take care of them and learn how to play the system.

  4. because there stupid or addicts or just unlucky or a combination they are too poor or proud to get sheltler  and they probably lost their family and freinds

  5. some don't want help from family- it might be a pride thing.  Some might not have any family.  

    Hard to get a job when you have no phone, no address, no place to shower or clean up for an interview!!!
