THOUGHT ON SOCIETY-HOMELESS

Right now I have nothing to write so I thought I will just write what I do in class discussion for my sociology class


This week is about how we view the homeless and people who live in poverty. I just wrote what I think; I think homeless and poverty has to do with change in perspective of individual towards the world they live in. Just like in the U.S the major cause of this depends on individual's circumstances like unemployment and personal problems, like mental illness. therefore when any individual wake up in the morning and face these kind of challenges they will became one of the homeless and poverty that is if they don't have any option available to them. so in my opinion it’s not a personal choice nor a symptom of the culture's failure, that is because they are not choosing to live like that it’s just the way their world have became!. If you have noticed these people even if you give them food or shelter they will leave that and go back to begin the street maybe it is because that living standard has became "normal" to them. It could be possible that the degradation of family values in our society is making this homeless and poverty to increase. This is because of intensive globalization in this world plus individuals adapting this change so fast that we forget who we really are and the fact that we are living in a free world. With this in mind it might seem like being homeless and poverty could be "normal" to some individuals regardless of their family values. most family values encourages individuals to work hard and achieve more, but sometimes circumstances does not let this happen and a person ends up being homeless and poverty.
