I know alot about being homeless and scared of what will come next, Why? because I am homeless,lonely,and scared.I became that at the age of 15, kick of my parents home because I was with child. I had no place to go, I fit in nowhere and still dont, I am stiill struuugleing to find work and a home of my own. So I dont understand how any body can say there in such thing in america, that is bull, I am one of the many,loney,forgotten homeless people on this land called america.I dont understand it myself. I find and found that people of america do not care at all.Saying, just gey a job is easier said than done. Places will not employ you if you have no address,no phone,no family.

It's terrible to watch someone that you care about destroying their life through a Valium addiction, but by performing an addiction intervention you may be able to help them recover. Together, we work with those close to the Valium addict to help plan effective interventions in Vermont and throughout the USA. A professional intervention could be the very best thing you ever do for an addict... so let us help make it work! Why not call us now for free to see how we can help

You'd think that with all of the money our government spends on all sorts of crazy items (ahem, explosives) that we could afford a better solution. Homelessness has been around since this country's inception, and I don't see it going away any time soon.

Realistically, what are our options? No one should have to live on the street. And the shelters are for the most part dangerous.

I understand what you mean (assuming i read your 'english' correctly) but how does US citizenship make someone more worthy of our help? We should help the people in our country, and so should the government, but that is no reason to completely disregard the needs of children in other nations.
I think that people, in general, need to be more generous. If more people helped out, then their wouldn't be so many people needing help.
Also, the government needs to help its own citizens. In the last decade our government has 'misplaced' more money than I will ever see in my life, but they cannot find some cash to feed their hungry citizens. I'm not suggesting socialism here, but some kind of conscientious spending would be great.
Where I live, the city approved the building of a dog-park. A big park that will cost money to build, protect, and maintain. This money could have gone to help the hundreds of homeless people living on the streets and under bridges.

I guess I want the government to spend more money on worthier causes, and I want people to help anyone who needs it, not just US citizens... why would the right to food, water, and shelter stop at the US border?

they estimate there are 600,000 homeless each night.

u know i agree with u even tho im not homeless. nd it really tickz me off wen u c ppl who r givin so much 2 africaz homeless ppl gettin alot of praise for that. but wen someone helpz out a homeless person in america itz like 'o well, we live here, itz not like we care bout otherz in the same country'

Perhaps not exactly like that. But he did grossly underestimate the number of homeless veterans.

if you got kicked out of the house then i'm guessing there was a reason behind that.

Very true

life is hard, but you can't give up. There are shelters and places that you can go. People will help you. You should blame America as a whole. Its not every persons fault. Alot of people care. If they didnt we wouldn't have Charitys or places for homeless to go. Life is hard, but if you keep working at it God will help you find a way. =).
i am always here if you want to talk you can im me. or send me a message. i am new to this site so i don't know exactly how it works yet.
Grace&Peace be with you.

It may not be the wises shoide or risk but i could just be wise....

well how about the story of the boy who took the homeless man into his house....yes he was taking a risk and yes the world has corrupt people but complication these days, its irronic but simply by being just maybe so this person as most on the planet will not be bad at all...

first i must say i sympathize with you.
i know how THE STRUGGLE feels,
even though yours and mine are different.

as far as people NOT caring, ESP. in this
"land of the brave..."
well, they dont.
i have recently learned that this COUNTRY is an expert at hiding many truths from their "people."
and a person cannot care about what they have no knowledge of.
keep your head up.
and never forget to thank THE LORD for everything u get.
because when judgement day comes. that's what u'll be judged on. NOT BY HOW MANY PEOPLE DIDN'T CARE.

Wow, i mean i'm sure it's not america's fault. The people here do care and if you got kicked out of the house then i'm guessing there was a reason behind that.

Oh no. I wasn't here when you first posted, have you found a good place to stay?

take that to the cops sweet heart, unless your emancipated your parents can't do that. It's called negligence

hey can anyone help this girl over there? where do u live love?

Well, this is just me, but I don't think it's wise to offer your house to a stranger you've never met and who you don't know anyone about. I suppose the best thing to do is point them in the right direction, like the nearest shelter in their area. Like the one Ikki pointed out.

It's been some days since she posted this, I hope she already found a place to stay.

hey im jade i wish i could take you and give you a place to stay but... i live on the other side of the planet.. australia!
can you find a shelter or something
