My mother kicked me out when I was 19. I didn’t do drugs, had problems with the law or got pregnant. She just got tired of me. Now 15 years later I have two daughters on my own and one thing I can tell for sure: I will never let them be homeless. No matter what happens and how old they are. Watching this breaks my heart.

[@sadaf6295]

Oh god how can she abandoned you?

[@DAR-1776]

I was 17 years old, and then they moved away to another city and bought a two bedroom house, which was smaller and they let my older sister live with them who is 11 years older than I am. I got pregnant at 16, they tried to make me get an abortion, so I ran away until I was six months pregnant, they made me come back home, and forced me to put my baby up for adoption at birth. I had nothing but sadness and they threw me out. I slept on the beach for a couple of weeks until I ran into an old friend that needed a nanny for her son. so I ended up having a roof over my head without the help of my family. My brothers wouldn’t help me, it really sucked at what my family did to me. I was the youngest out of five and was never treated right. It was like I was a burden on them and I was a good kid, very good in school. Didn’t break the law or anything either. But God looks out for us in someways.

[@GoudaTheCavalier]

Yes, imma be homeless, wear some decent expensive clothing, and act homeless for the views. Sure, it helps shed light into homelessness, but faking homeless for clout is a different level of evil. If shes homeless, how does she afford a monthly storage unit with pretty organized boxes that also dont look cheap. You tell me.

[@joankney8484]

Christmas Eve several years ago, an ELDER was abandoned a block from my house. Her party she was traveling with just drove off without her. She was about 75. She had no coat and was sleeping on the ground next to a cafe. I woke her up and about that time the cops showed up. This was in Texas…. Nasty ass state! I screamed at them while putting a warm coat on this beautiful woman. I refused to let them take her. I suggested alternatives that weren’t cops…… they contacted a woman’s shelter in my town…. A good one….. and I waited until they came. The cops and the cafe owner weren’t interested in knowing that she was just abandoned….. I hate this country.

[@warrenpeace8304]

I was homeless for 7 months living in a tent but i had a car and I still had a job. I knew I was about to become homeless a few weeks in advance so I bought everything I might need and braced for it. I managed to keep my situation a secret from all of my coworkers and eventually saved up enough money to drop a down payment on my apartment. While being homeless I had every type of "holier than thou" person assume that I was out there due to drugs or alcohol but I was sober the whole time!! If anyone out there is staring defeat in the face just remember, stay sober and work hard and focus on getting yourself back on track. It won't be easy but don't give up!!

[@TheRealRedheadedStepchild]

I've never not be sober and Noone helps. A church was gonna help but I was told I had to come to church and repent. So nah to church.

[@ahhwe-any7434]

had dudes Walking up to my vehicle, mind you (some not) offering money...& asking me to buy. mind you, w/ my baby in the car. id be lying if i said i wasnt still rude to the questionable ppl. u would think homelessness would humble you. which it does. but im still not fn stupid. how insulting. the hell do i need from u? get the hell away from me. even if i entertained things a bit like is it at your id your aiming for starters? & nevermind, i got lost... bc when i ran away young, had no clue about how things operated, didnt really grasp responsibility or rules, i at least still had a vehicle & got my arse to working. did 2 jobs. & then was like oh, i had my id tho. or *license. it was out of state but still... some things, i really dont always know how i seem to other ppl. bc my normal is just my normal... but how do u have generations of ppl being born & raised out here & dont even manage to have an id. orthink having an id is a flex. were u raised in a cave? bc an id kinda helps u get by in life u know. just kind of. thats nothing flashy. thats an actual necessity foolios

[@Hello-iz9hl]

Let me ask you how much money did you save in total?

[@warrenpeace8304]

@@Hello-iz9hl I saved up a little more than 2,000 because the area in which I live is kind of expensive and I had a ton of bills (even while being homeless), plus it gets kind of expensive when all of my food has to be either cooked by the fire or is fast food. I was only making 13.00 per hour at the time so much of my money was going to gas so that I could get to work or the occasional stay at an RV park that allowed tent camping. The only down side was that they would only let me stay there 1 week at a time. So every other week I was setting up my tent wherever I could. I thought 7 months without rent would make me more money but then I was surprised at how expensive life still can be. It wasn't easy but I got out and even got a good job

[@irenegonzalez201]

​@@TheRealRedheadedStepchildyou must not have been hungry enough. I would never turn my back on a church that was trying to help my homeless ass, but that's me. You keep that pride and see how far you get. So you would gladly accept a free handout, but if it's a church who wants to pray with you, you just say naw? Sound kind of stubborn, bro. This is why ppl are getting compassion fatigue. "Beggars can't be choosers". Holy hell, I guess they sure can...

@lostineggsaisle fair point i didn't take that into consideration, although I feel it must be said that petsitting a dog for I'm assuming around 8 hours for 5 days of the week (I'm just guessing that time frame since it seems to be the average in America but I could be wrong) is very different than housing a person 24/7.

“Being helped and being taken advantage of can look alike” so true. Sometimes when your in a vulnerable position it’s hard to discern one’s motives and intentions because it’s cloaked/disguised. It’s important to remember that wolves can sometimes come in sheep’s clothing.

[@miyazoe3941]

​@@hotspot171 From my experience, whatever trauma or challenges you have to face in life, it's better to face them alone. But that's not to say if you have genuine help you would reject it. Rather, it's more saying that being with people who pretends to show you kindness but in truth have a negative intentions towards you. I was in an toxic relationship and that manipulated me into thinking he would save me but at the end it was all a lie. At the end, I did my best to heal, to move on all on my own. I suffer the pain on my own, till now nobody really knows the pain I went through but at least now I got much wiser because of the pain. Hope this explains it. 🙏🏻

My sister is homeless and works 14 hrs 7 days a week. Ive offered her a room in my apartment but she refused because she wants to stay in the city her teenage son died in. She is still greiving. He was killed by his best friend 2 years ago. It was ruled an accident but shortly before he shot him to death he had told him he wonders what it'd be like to kill someone. I think he did it intentionally because he was a dumb kid and didnt realize how serious it actually was and now he is filled with grief as well. My sister sometimes takes him out to lunch. He has a picture of my nephew on his wall and he wakes up every morning and talks to it. Anyways not everyone who is homeless is just a deadbeat loser.

I love how you kept your dog. It had to mean some sacrifice from you in order to care for it. So many people who get pets abandon them for the least little reason. That shows the person you are. I truly pray you reach your goals and remain safe while doing so.

[@lawyerreactsnotthemoon85]

I feel it's selfish. The dog deserves better, and to have a home, and food. But there's also many dogs that are homeless or get put down. So it can be tough. I've been homeless and can't imagine keeping a dog in that poor state tho. It's unfair, They honestly do deserve to have better in my opinion. Even if you send them to a Foster home Temporarily to ensure they stay safe, and well taken care of, until the owner gets back on their feet. The dog did nothing to deserve being in a bad situation. But for some owners it's also very hard for them to part with their dog due to selfish reasons, or they may also want 'protection, or to not be alone.' Which I completely understand. as it's tough to be completely alone while homeless. But it's still does just feel unfair to me for the dog. But I'm not judging people who keep their pets while living in a car, I do think it's very dangerous and unfair. -Tho I know many who have been in the same tough situation like that, And the main reason is it actually also Only makes it Harder to 'Keep and Find a job*, Which is another huge reason why I would warn against it. Because they can't leave their pet in a hot car all alone, so Basically have to be with it 24/7‼️which also keeps them homeless and stuck in that loop/cycle 😢 since they can't find a job. So it's worse for both The pet, And the owner in the long run. They may have to separate temporarily in order for the owner to get a job, -And become Financially stable, and THEN Reunite. As difficult as that may be, it's better for Both in the long run if they want to live a happy Long life together. Sometimes the owner has to step up and do the difficult thing to be responsible, if they truly loved and cared for their pet. Then they would want the best/ what better for them. A little time apart would feel like nothing once the owner has their feet on the ground, and they can be together again. I say this as someone who has been through this myself as heartbreaking as it is,💔 and who has seen this situation happen and play out for many people, and their pets Died in vain. because they wouldn't be responsible step up and do right by them. If they Love their pets they want what's better for them. And to prioritize Their safety and happiness, that's what being a good responsible owner would do. Not being selfish, and keep both of eachother even longer in that tough difficult situation far longer then needs to be.
