I wonder how they ended up on the streets.. abuse, domestic violence? And them being young, it's not like they can just get money from the dole.

[adifferentlook]

domestic violence is the biggest issue atm, its a shame how the system fails young people and i guess the problems lies within the lack of funding, but really how can u put a price on these kids

@adifferentlook That's true and it's been going on for ages. Im 25 and when I was 15 my best friend at school would often run away from home because she was so scared of what's going on when she gets home (mum, sister and her regularly beaten - not hit - beaten. Thing is her dad was a police officer and the mum would always get shut up or threatened. True story - never forgot that. She left home at 17 and no one heard from her again :( Sad.

Lol thats a pretty Shit Lord you have there, if i were u id change religions cause ur lord sucks massive dick!

why would an all powerful being help people who help themselves? they dont need help and he wont do anything to help them anyway.

your statement is fucked and should be reversed, a god who cares only about the happy people isnt a very good god

id change religions if i were u

Reasons I'm one the streets

1: violence

2: decided it was time for something more, I wanted to live without fear of pain so me and my brother left home we're out here now. At least I think he still is I havent seen him in a year or so.

[twinretina]

Until you address the issues the issue will remain--The Lord helps those who help themselves--get rid of the parasites and what they feed upon--ALL OF THEM--only you can carry the light !

and still people praise this country, the richest in the world! i would say, the most ignorant! 35million americans suffer from hunger every year!
