After 9 Years, This Family Moved Out of Their 100-Square-Foot Home

[@Anthro777]

I'm so happy for them! I just watched the video of their previous living arrangements. What a difference!

[@Chicago48]

She's been in the US for 9 years and doesn't speak English? How is that? Does she get subsidies and food stamps? They owe a lot to the US. We do a lot for illegal immigrants. Looks like they have new furniture and a TV!! Wow no wonder everybody in the world wants to live in the US.

[@nice20chan]

These two people have mental disorders. If they had jobs, they would not let their children live like this. Her eyes kept flashing when she spoke, she was obviously acting or lying. They chose to live like this. Imagine, they got pregnant and gave birth to four children in such a small space? People like this make it look like a garbage dump wherever they live.

[@Maki-00]

Same! I saw the previous 20 minutes ago. Glad this one was recommended!

[@alexxx7066]

These people have thier own country 🙄 thier own government so why on earth are they taking a home that could've gone to a native born American? This is crazy 🤪

In 1986 I moved to San Francisco from Redding at age 19. I lived in a 100 square foot SRO for about 9 months and paid $200 in rent monthly. I'm trying to imagine living there with 4 other people. Madness. I'm so happy this family has more room now.

[@sbss924]

That's quite a sum-$200 for just 100 square feet was significant back in 1986, and it still holds true today! I truly hope life is treating you well these days.

[@ChrisBlack-v2v]

Good gosh, finally a positive outcome. Well done all concerned. The whole family’s gratitude and body language says it all & Mrs. said it best….. academic studies is now key to the kids’ future. Thank you, Chris in Windy Welly, NZ

[@space5776]

Chinese people, once they get any assistance, they will work super hard & better themselves. They won’t trash the house or let the kids run wild. These kids will grow up to be successful & contributors to the community

You can work super hard with a low paying job and it still won't be enough. Rent is super high in San Francisco.

[@jlouie8835]

@@olir6910 For someone who doesn't speak English and without technical skills, no matter how hard they work, they only get minimum wage jobs. However, if the children study extra hard, they'll get into good colleges and be able to get out of poverty. I have been there and done it. I am a CPA,, my husband is a software engineer, we both came from low income families.

[@AhJodie]

OMG, this is fantastic they got this! Now they can walk around inside! I saw the video of them in the one room, this is happier! It gets chilly in San Francisco, now they can do things inside and still get exercise! I am so happy for them!

So happy for them. All she wanted was a bigger home & privacy for her children. She’s a good cook & keeps her kitchen clean

[@leafyeon]

... almost cried seeing this immediately after seeing the previous video of her crying in that room

With all the garbage news these days this was awesome. Good for them I hope the future only gets brighter for them.

[@EL415SF]

that's what I was wondering. would they have to wait another 9 years if there weren't covered by a newspaper?

[@CathyKnight-i2o]

So happy for you and your family

[@justd4377]

Having to pay $700 for a 10 x 10 room, without a bathroom or kitchen should be illegal. How they could endure this for 9 years is beyond me. Hopefully they will be able to get out of CA once their children are all in college.

[@imatrixyourbulla]

[@johnqpublic4012]

Anyone find it the least bit strange that the daughters do not appear in 99.9% of the video, and none of the clips inside the new place? Even in the previous video, toward the end it was the couple standing with only their sons in the shot.

[@Demonfireangel]

They value sons over daughters. It's a stupid Chinese custom that's still being followed to this day. After the 1st kid was a girl, they tried for a 2nd kid, who was also a girl. Finally, the 3rd kid was a boy, but it turned out to be twin boys. It's obvious they value their boys over their girls.

[@busyvendors]

9 years must have been tough. God bless your family.

[@munkeescrotum]

Notice how they have always worked hard. They will continue to work hard, and then both parents make the effort to stick around, give their children a better future, and hope their kids focus on their studies to be productive members of society. And people wonder why other cultures in America are subpar.

[@flightoffancy7]

Actually that is a question for me. I did not notice how they have worked hard. In the accompanying article, I read that the mother has a part time job (as a receptionist I think) and the father is not employed. Please let me know what you saw that showed their ambition, drive, or persistence. I would like to see such assistance given to immigrants who have the drive and character to improve their lives. However, I'm not sure about these parents being that, given that after 9 years of being in the US, they don't seem to have significantly improved their situation. However, seeing them on screen, having a much better life does make me smile, whether or not they "deserved" it. I am especially happy for the kids.

[@munkeescrotum]

@@flightoffancy7 that's actually a fair point. I guess my assumptions were wrong. I am happy for the kids though

[@sbss924]

This is excellent news. I also wish for other children and families to have the opportunity to reside in a beautiful home. Numerous diligent families participating in the Section 8 program value their vouchers. However, the focus often tends to be on those who fail to fulfill their contractual obligations, leading to a negative perception of Section 8.

[@sheilag.834]

About time San Francisco. No one should have to live in any of SF's dilapidated SROs. And, no one should have to wait YEARS to receive decent housing. If such wait times ARE STILL due to SFHA corruption, the guilty personnel should be rooted out and prosecuted.

[@Freeworld856]

There’s to many families in need and sometimes it takes generations to be able to vacate a section8 home so that another family can benefit. There’s also a lot of fraud. I had a coworker that had a section8 home in Denver and another one in Pueblo CO. She didn’t want to give either of them up because her children lived in Pueblo, they didn’t want to move to Denver. I had another friend that lived with her mom and rented out her section8 home. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Awesome turnaround and some light at the end of the tunnel for this lucky family, but there are thousands of others still waiting. There were recent investigations to the MOH in SF and it was discovered that some of the Mayor's office employees were selling S8 vouchers to their friends and family for profit when it should be going to seniors/families/veterans/disabled/homeless/etc.

Saw the original video when it debuted. Happy to see this follow up. To the outside world of Chinatown their previous condition may seem appalling and egregious by the parents but I commend them in keeping the family unit as safe as possible. Community outreach and advocacy for such families are constantly overshadowed by the homeless/half housing industry complex groups in the Tenderloin district
