What is poverty -people who are poor and live on the street and
have no family, no food to eat, they live poverty
Poverty
We think homeless people are enjoing themselves because really
they choose to leave home.They should be free. There should be
homes for homeless people,but they should have the right to stay
on the street if that’s what they want.
Some people choose to be the way they are,but some have no
choice.Some are homeless because of drinking or drugs.Some
just won’t listen to there parents and won’t obey their
rules.Somepeople just can’t afford a home, it ’s not their fault.
Definition of poverty:
When one lacks a usual or socially exceptable amount of
money or material possesions. Poverty is said to exist when
people lack the means to satisfy their basic needs.

Conclusion
We thought at first that maybe they wanted help,but some
homeless people don’t. Some of them have no choice but some of
them do. From all the stories we read some were sad and some just
spoke the truth.Some people just deserved what happened to
them.We still think that no one should be on the street, little or big it
doesn’t matter. We didn’t know about poverty until now and it
changed us in a weird but civil way. Now we know that some
people need help. If we could help these unfortunate people we
would,in a second.But,we’re just kids.We say STOP POVERTY.
