I've been to many countries and I've never seen people waste as much food as I've seen in America... and before you think about disagreeing with this I want you to visit one of the local schools in your city and ask them what they do with their leftovers...

Bella Darling I dated an Asian for three months and I was very good to her but she dumped me because I wouldn't pay for her College. I should have seen it coming because you text me about three times during that three months we're together telling me that I can't afford her. I found that an insult because I make really good money. 2.5 times what my friends and family make.
Bella Darling That's exactly True.In fact You know that sort of Reputation is more towards Black Women.And I'm even saying that's not Totally True.But it is in some cases.And it also can be applied to any Type of Women.But Women that are Asian or Afro Asiatic based Are actually more Home Grown Countryside Villager Types.But there is a small percentage of Them Who Street wise and are Vixen like in Nature.But like I that can be applied to any Type of Women.Bottom line is This Man is very very very Fortunate.Because You and I both know that had He been with Ole Keisha from Compton She would have been left His Black Ass.Because Most Black Women leave a Black Man for the Slightest Reasons.So the Whole Homeless thing wouldn't even have came about.
Me personally if I cant make it in a city where its too expensive I'd dip out and move elsewhere more affordable instead of putting my kids thru some shit like that.
@@rebeccaarnold9713 this is utter horseshit and i know this for a fact. I left and got an entry career immediately (I now make $60k) in an area where the cost of living is 1/2 what the bay area is.

In San Francisco, software engineers are living in conversion vans even as they work to build our technological future. Housing is so expensive in San Francisco because wealthy foreign investors have relentlessly bid up real estate prices. Judge not lest ye be judged.
Yea but the people that work in Restaurants and stuff are somehow able to make rent. I've never met an engineer here that lives out of a vehicle whether it's because they want to or because they have to. I don't believe a word you say.
Karim Bennett I have a simple solution, LEAVE SAN FRANCISCO! If you're already living in the car, then you have nothing holding you back from leaving, if the man really has 2 jobs a weeks pay would supply gas to drive anywhere in the United states in search of work, there are jobs everywhere for people that want them right now.
Karim Bennett: A lot of prime real estate in Ca are owned by Chinese investors. It's awesome how Americans pour $ into China and their rich come back and jack up our real estate prices.
M D not really just watch the news about companies hiring on the B1 B2 Visa which gives foreign Personnel the right to come to America and take American jobs especially good jobs for Less pay. I just seen it today.
Worst part is that these investors pay no taxes (other than property taxes, but I'm talking about taxes on hoarding assets). Many other countries outright FORBID outsiders from owning any property, or if they allow it, tax them heavily so much that it becomes unfeasible to own anything unless you actually are actively living in it. America should do the same. Instead, the administration wants to heavily tax middle class citizens more as the solution.
I agree section 8 needs to end.. or at least this family should be able to get it.. the man works 2 jobs.. we need to have a country where working people can afford to live.
Stop thinking Section 8 means free, I was on for 3 yrs. my rent was 990.00 I paid all my own utilities, no food stamps, one job. I got a house through Habitat for Humanity. My mortgage is way less. With section 8, you pay the majority, at least in some parts of Louisiana.
I'm from California (born and raised here), so I can assure you it ain't easy living out here without a decent salary. With that being said, these folks have got to leave the Bay Area for the sake of their children's lives-the cost of living there or most of California is far more expensive than other states. I will never understand why anyone would want to live in California if they cannot afford it. Unfortunately, some folks don't realize the implications of relying on 'em government grants.
I had a two bedroom apartment in the Oakland foothills for $850 in 2004; Along with my roommate we could afford this place working at Home Depot. The same place now will cost at least $2,100. Now I live in central California working as a nurse, and even on a nurses salary Its still very expensive to live in the bay. Prices this just shot up overnight. It's not even enough housing stock, landlords know this and, are able to ask for unreasonable amounts of money for rent.
djpioneer937 the city of Alameda is so ridiculous, Oakland is not far from becoming like it. every one I know moved to Antioch, Stockton area's. are you with Kaiser? nurses and trucker's can move anywhere in the States. high demanding fields.
Just4me: Who's blaming the kids?.. it's just common sense, if you know damn well you're struggling and can't make ends meet and don't even have a house/apt to live in (hint hint: they were living with his mom) then they should not have kept on having kids. And because of their carelessness, these poor children have to suffer.
Sometimes life is going beautifully and then all of a sudden something happens out of your control! You don’t know if they have always been struggling! They could’ve lost their jobs due to staff downsizing etc! You don’t know enough to sit back and so quickly judge their entire situation. It’s easy to plop a one situation fits all to someone else’s situation but death, divorce, job loss, disability....those things DO HAPPEN.
Because humans are going to procreate lmao that’s life the governments is charging all these taxes and fees to decrease the population that’s a known fact
Is a husband and wife supposed to never have sex because theyre poor? Thats they inly way to insure no pregnancy happens. Not everyone wants to risk dying or NEVER having more kids because they had an abortion. Seems cruel for one child to deserve to live because we have money and the other ti deserve to die because the parents dont. Had a couple as friends once decide to end a pregnacy because they couldnt afford the baby. Broke their hearts they wanted a baby girl hopefully and she got pregnant by fluke. The week after that the wife got a raise and the husband scratched 40k after taxes on a 2 dollar ticket. Drove the wife away from him because she went through the trama of aborting over money.
@@tyqueishahoward743 I know they are going to have sex but geesh in the end the kids are the ones who have to suffer I know they can least afford a box of condoms they just need to be a little more careful
Word to the wise. Kids are very expensive, much more than pets. I have a decent city job with benefits and pension and now my wife will enter the workforce very soon just in case. After I have my second child, I opted for a vasectomy. Shops permanently closed as far as I'm concerned. No more kids period. Again, kids need a lot of financial, emotional, mental, and physical resources. People need to make sure they can afford kids before having them.
I don't see how anyone can afford to have 4 kids in San Francisco. Most of his income is going to go toward supporting the 6 of them and not rent. It's like having a part-time job and being single. The sad thing is, it is probably cheaper for his wife not to work and take care of the kids, with the cost of daycare being so high. It would be pretty vicious for her to stick 4 kids with someone she knows without paying anything. Perhaps, I wouldn't judge him so harshly if he drove anything but a Ford Taurus. Those things break at least once a month, and they will be lucky if it lasts the week.
Mia Strong did you really have to bring a Ford Taurus into this? I’ve got a 1999 Ford Taurus (my profile picture) and she’s almost at 300,000 miles. I love this car and it’s been nothing but reliable.
Simple solution. If you can't afford the city....move to a state that's cheaper to live. Vegas has tons of hotel jobs and security jobs. Security guards can make $16.50/hr with Allied Barton.
Quang Vu it takes a town to raise kids right not this take care of your own is the sickness of USA today keep make new house that needs more and more money to get is selfish and not care about other's
Don't give up!!!!! This brought me to tears! It's so sad even when your own flesh and blood, just literally puts all family out in the street 😡. The dad, is not a dead beat dad, as stated on this video, he works 2 jobs, while trying not to lose himself in giving up completely. The mom loves her kids, You can see that in her eyes. If I had seen this family in a mall.. I wouldn't even think they were homeless. I lived in the Bay area since the 70's and it's so sad the rent, gas..and he'll buying food had skyrocketed out of control! 😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣
Tell me about it. The Entire San Francisco bay area is skyrocketing expensive as hell. I was about to move there when I got hired by United Airlines but declined. Just not worth it.
my nieces is getting 1100 a month she's homeless they I promise they are ok.ca is high with welfare, but high rent,,,still I do believe there ok.ssa people are homeless to.
when I lost my job I took in lodgers to pay my mortgage. I managed to keep my two houses going with tenants and lodgers. Without sharing my home I would have lost them.
Its called you move out of the bay area. So many people will not move to where the jobs are because they like a specific area. Just move out of California in general and move to a more affordable state
My family lived in Azusa and Pasadena in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. We have never seen situations like this. Those with jobs always had a roof over their heads , I think. Now am seeing professionals living in their cars ... sad. Praying that the family will get a place to stay... 🙏🏻
I feel a tinge of remorse for them but IF SOMEONE is housing you (I.e you can't afford your own place even in that moment) DO NOT have 4 kids back to back in someone elses house???? hows that OK - a slip up of one is maybe OK but 4??? - wisdom my people - wisdom - don't breed if you never had your own place it's the thing that is sinking my continent Africa with poor people taking it upon themselves to fill the world - except you are in the USA, can't say you don't have an education or access to family planning like the people here so really you brought this up yourself as you don't mention ever having been living in your own place
Why do people that can't afford to have children are the ones that keep having as many as possible??? To get benefits perhaps?? In most places each person gets Food Stamps of $200 every month!! So a family of 6 gets $1200 a month in benefits which they often times sell!!
4 babies, which means 3 times on purpose, didn’t learn after the first one. 2 jobs, but that could mean 2 part time jobs, and no job for mom. minimum wage $10 full time is 1600 a month, add a little welfare, food stamps and medi-cal, and it’s totally doable. from experience, with a few exceptions, everyone is exactly where they deserve to be in life.
i agree, even if they move to a small apartment somewhere cheaper, the can go with the kids an the dad can stay back just for a month or two in his 2 jobs so their not pennyless, whilst reaching out an looking for a new job. It takes time an hardship but would be worth it in the end 😢 anything is better than sleeping in your car with the kids
i commend mrs. frost for sticking around. most women will leave for greener pastures when times get tough. mr. frost is a lucky man in spite of current circumstances. as long as they continue to stick together, they will be fine, no matter what.
I am a landlord. Rents go up because insurance and property taxes go up every year. Also, many tenants leave damage to the home when they move out. One renter brought a dog into the house and ALL the carpeting had shit ground into it. The wood trim around the doors was chewed up and all of it had to be replaced. The cost of the damage exceeded the amount of all the rent that I collected from them. The security deposit didn’t even come close to paying for the damage. No insurance covers this. Add in the mortgage payments the landlord makes and you can see why rents are as high as they are. I didn’t even factor in the maintenance costs and my time and labor. P.S. Even the carpet padding had to be replaced because it was saturated with urine. You can’t wash that out.
I swear people never look at the choices they make as why they struggle. 6 children? I'd argue many educated people with good paying jobs would struggle to take care of 6 children. I don't wish these nice folks any ill will, but parents with far fewer children struggle themselves and on top of it have taxes increased on them to take care of families like these. These are all young children, and hearing they were living with her mother, id say it's a safe bet they kept having more kids when they couldn't take care of the ones they already had,who's fault is that?
As a single mother I can't even get support from the government on 12 bucks an hour. I'm a landscaper and about to be living in my car with my kid. Because I don't want to have to be with a man to get by and in today's world this is how most women get stuck in abusive relationships. I hope this family is well and good now. Bless.
It's ridiculously expensive in the bay area. I have a good job in the bay area, and I commute 7 hours a day to/from work (longer if the traffic is particularly bad,) and I can't afford a studio apartment. (Even if I could, it would take all of my money and I wouldn't have money left over for savings, basic necessities, utilities, food, etc.) However, that being said, it would be a lot easier if they didn't have so many kids. (Seriously, if you can't afford kids, don't have them. It's unfair.) I can see if they had to move into their car extremely recently after they already had the kids, but according to the video, they were living with the mom's mother. That's hardly a situation where you should be popping out more kids because they obviously couldn't survive on their own as it was. The baby is extremely young and likely conceived after they were already car-bound. It's irresponsible. Plain and simple. I don't feel remorse for the parents at all, but only for their kids. There are other places to live than the bay area, especially if you don't have a particularly lucrative career.
Lakota828 you may have a good job but like you said if it's not lucrative career there are other places to live. You kinda contradicted yourself there. Also if you are commuting 7 hours a day you prob live in Sacramento or something it may be more expensive to live closer but if you work an 8 hour day you may as well cut your hourly wage in half because your commute doubles your work day. If all your money went toward an apartment where you work you could spend that other 7 hours on your own business increasing your income or fapping.
Jesse Dutton I'm commuted to the Bay Area for years. You can't cut your pay in half because you commute. Even with the commute, you are ahead money wise.
Armando Flores I'm not sure how your comment relates to the video Many people walked to where they needed to get in those days. Even during my mother's time people walked almost every where they needed to go. I am not understanding the point you or trying to make.
I swear if I had it like that of help get my man and his fam in a place and help him find more work. The girl is a trooper stay for stayin n w/ him. And when she called him a hero it seemed genuine. Dang. I don't know when this story aired but I hope things are better for them now
This man is working two jobs and people still have to be negative? There are plenty of people living it up in Cali with 0 jobs, yet this family is an issue?? People, get your shit straight!!!
Just Me thank you. everybody is saying why they have 4kids. like they could see their future and still decide to be homeless. everyone have their own struggles. Just because you're not in same situation doesn't mean they asked for the life they have now.
How about buying a Van or motor home? No rent, utility bills - 1 bedroom ? near $2,000 saved? @ 2 jobs= near working at $10. minimum wage - 60 hrs = $600 week $2400 a month? If numbers , Math not correct - can someone figure better? Free food, clothes everywhere?
Wonderful children but what were they thinking having 4 kids. I wish I could have had a whole bunch of kids but shit man I only had one. Things are only going to get worse thanks to greed.
You could work two jobs and still be homeless. these politicians needs to be ashamed of themselves. They have enough money to build more housing for the poor and middle class.
It's like we live in a society that punishes you for having children. Wages are low and childcare cost for most is not affordable. People say you should be prepared some people do start families and have good jobs and they can lose their job. Or get sick and can't provide. We should help homeless families instead of judging
They said he grew up there. They were living with her mother but she couldn't afford to have them living there anymore. He was two jobs but can't afford rent.
KC they grew up in the Bay Area, it use to be an affordable place. This place has many jobs but no type of affordable housing. If they leave the bay to go somewhere else, there is no guarantee that they'll find a job and will remain in the same predicament
Joe Mama I understand but they need to make that risk for their children... they need to rethink there options rather than wait for the city to change laws. Moving to Arizona or affordable states isn’t a bad thing if they carefully plan it
If you can't afford children, don't have any. If you can't afford in LA, move!!! Even with just a minimum wage job or two, you might be able to afford a decent home in a nearby state. The thing is people start having kids like rabbits and once they find themselves deep in the hole, they don't know what to do. I feel bad for the parents, but it's not like someone forced them to make the wrong decisions. I hope they make it, though.
her quote about her husband "he goes beyond to make sure we're okay," good attitude, but no he's not =/ or you'd be okay, you're not okay, you are suffering... i feel bad.
Family of 6? Why have that many? Even with both parents working for an ok quality of life even 2 kids are enough. If they were living with his mom why keep breeding? I have zero sympathy.
wow! this family deserves much better! at least the dad is working, my gosh , wtf? I know single people who don't work, got their kids taken away and they got free housing , food stamps the whole none yards
lifes not easy or fair. its all about the mighty dollar. getting very expensive to live and we will see more homeless people years to come. if. the rent keeps goinv up and jobs going away. govt needs to do something about this mess
this country needs to find balance. we cant even raise minimum wages because that will cause an increase in rent, utilities, groceries, gas, taxes, etc... therefore raising minimum wages wont help at all. the root of this problem is greed, and IRS is the leading cause of that...
Okay but are there jobs in Ohio that pay enough to afford those empty houses? Everyone keeps saying just move but you still need to live somewhere with a job you're qualified for to afford to live there too... IMO they need to break up tech corporations so they aren't all concentrated mainly on the west coast. It's turning into a nightmare and people who work in tech don't really have a choice but to be trapped in these areas. Look at what's happening to Austin, Seattle, and Portland now... These industries need to expand outside of the same 4 cities.
A beautiful family down on their luck. Illness is the main reason homeowners lose their house in America. We could be next. If you can't have compassion for people Please keep comments to yourself.
Shame on that man for dragging that woman and all those kids into a situation like that. The downgrade from freeloading at someone’s house is squeezing your family into a car? Sad, that woman is being led by a fool. I have a feeling his mentality is the source of their poverty. He is not creative, ambitious or seems to have a sense of pride about himself to not let his family live like that. Men have it so easy in America, absolutely no standards for them having their -ish together before they try to marry you or have you running around having their kids left and right. If I was that woman I would leave expensive azz SF and that good for nothing man and create a better future for those kids.
How about instead of recording them and asking questions, y'all should actually help this family out by doing a fundraiser. Eventually these kids are going to get bigger and taller. We need to help support this family so this family can be happy. May God Almighty bless this family rich in love.
Why stay with a man and continue to have kids with him if he can't put a roof over your head? This does make me more thankful for the things I have though.
I wish them luck,its crazy how much rent is now days even with a good paying career. Here is my problem with this story, they were living at her moms house until she couldn't afford housing them, why have a children if you can't afford your own place? People need to be responsible . What makes this story sad is that this looks like a very warm loving family.
Rent here in Massachusetts for a 2 bdrm is going for 950 to 1200.00 a month absolutely ridiculous plus credit check and be able to afford the rent three times the amount per month some thing needs to be done there’s going to be more and more homeless ppl it’s just not right
Sherrie Lynn wow your rents are so cheap!!! Here in the Bay Area California a 2 bedroom is easily averaging between $3500-5000 a month. Oh to be in Massachusetts or another boondocks state.
They are much better than other homeless they have a car to live than under the bridge. Their situations is so difficult specially the children. It's so sad being homeless. They have to constrict themselves from different routine like taking a bath, comfortable place to sleep and eat, pooping, and many other things, so very sad.
The world is getting sadder unloving and unkind! Terrible to see a family living like this. I remember when my Dad was out of work for only two weeks he cried because he couldn't provide for his family so I can understand how the father is feeling. He wants adequate housing for his family. I hope and pray that they are in a nice home.
Update? How about Rep. Pelosi reaching out to help them since she is House Majority Leader representing San Francisco. How about Mayor Breed taking action?
I will contact him with someone that can help him help himself. You have to step out on faith like I did five years ago. You can find you an apt and do everything over the phone. I speak comfort, strength, provision, and protection over your family. You will overcome this keep your head up God is with you.
jeez. this is sad. the dad has a great attitude, im sure they will figure it out. thats one tough family
Chris Barreira yep especially since there's more vacant homes than there are homeless people... we could easily end homelessness but nobody wants to actually end it.
Chris Barreira home God blessed them one day.

They are doing a good job with their kids. And their kids could grow up to be a positive influence in society. God gave them the kids
It probably would of been smart to stop after the 2nd kid if they were already struggling.

Plus the assistance they get probably is around 2000 a month. This guy is probably not trustworthy. At all
If you can't afford kids don't have them . I do feel sorry for the family.
Truth
Why would you continue to have children when you can't take care of yourself?
Raz M. That’s what i’am saying nice family but why do they keep having kids when they can’t afford them
we can’t judge anyone’s situation on the outside looking in ❤️
Is a husband and wife supposed to never have sex because theyre poor? Thats they inly way to insure no pregnancy happens. Not everyone wants to risk dying or NEVER having more kids because they had an abortion. Seems cruel for one child to deserve to live because we have money and the other ti deserve to die because the parents dont. Had a couple as friends once decide to end a pregnacy because they couldnt afford the baby. Broke their hearts they wanted a baby girl hopefully and she got pregnant by fluke. The week after that the wife got a raise and the husband scratched 40k after taxes on a 2 dollar ticket. Drove the wife away from him because she went through the trama of aborting over money.
Yeah, raising kids are expensive! Condoms are hella cheaper
@@tyqueishahoward743 I know they are going to have sex but geesh in the end the kids are the ones who have to suffer I know they can least afford a box of condoms they just need to be a little more careful
This is a disgrace on a system that does not work.
dominic barbas what system?
dominic barbas system of having too many kids? They have a small toddler. Their situation was bad before they had the last one.
A system of taking care of children born by irresponsible parents?
Or maybe they are just lazy idiots who can't manage money or their sex drives.
Wel at least he pulled out successfully in the Taurus
Why keep having kids? Doesn’t seem like a smart move...
Raymond Foster is the Dad of all Dad's - and Mom you're the best! Keep up the good work; don't disregard relocation - do your home work.
Word to the wise. Kids are very expensive, much more than pets.
I have a decent city job with benefits and pension and now my wife will enter the workforce very soon just in case. After I have my second child, I opted for a vasectomy.
Shops permanently closed as far as I'm concerned. No more kids period.
Again, kids need a lot of financial, emotional, mental, and physical resources. People need to make sure they can afford kids before having them.
young people take this as an example enjoy your life , don't have kids enjoy your freedom move up in the world
Right, so they can sublet their cars to strangers at night?
Thats good, and interesting that you say because if the whole world said that and felt that maybe you or your parents wouldnt be 😏here.😉today.
I don't see how anyone can afford to have 4 kids in San Francisco. Most of his income is going to go toward supporting the 6 of them and not rent. It's like having a part-time job and being single. The sad thing is, it is probably cheaper for his wife not to work and take care of the kids, with the cost of daycare being so high. It would be pretty vicious for her to stick 4 kids with someone she knows without paying anything. Perhaps, I wouldn't judge him so harshly if he drove anything but a Ford Taurus. Those things break at least once a month, and they will be lucky if it lasts the week.
Mia Strong did you really have to bring a Ford Taurus into this? I’ve got a 1999 Ford Taurus (my profile picture) and she’s almost at 300,000 miles. I love this car and it’s been nothing but reliable.
Union City is in the East Bay
Cant afford rent but keep having kids? Yeah cause logic 🙄 smh
*How do these people live in cars and have kids? My kids won't even let me drive them around in my car if my a/c is not working and it's hot outside.*
boy you can tell these are their kids everyone looks just like the parents that is so cool
Simple solution. If you can't afford the city....move to a state that's cheaper to live. Vegas has tons of hotel jobs and security jobs. Security guards can make $16.50/hr with Allied Barton.
Now they dont. I lost my job earlier this year, and today just got evicted. I have my car, so there is that at least
I love his positivity. He'll raise great kids with that attitude. Hope they're doing okay.
Didn't you learn how to count yet
Leave California the cost of living there is fucking insane.
They can’t afford to leave the only income they have ,they said that clearly.
they better not take these kids away from that wonderful Dad and Mom!!! find a place for the whole family do not break them apart!!!
So the society has to take care of the kids that were born by the couple? When they had sex to conceive these kids, non of us was part of the action.
Quang Vu it takes a town to raise kids right not this take care of your own is the sickness of USA today keep make new house that needs more and more money to get is selfish and not care about other's
TheColdHard Truth 100% truth right there!
@@VuQuang1973 So if you have an emergency and I walked past you I will not help you since it's not my fault you were born.
They should. They should be with a family member or something. They didn't ask to be homeless
Don't give up!!!!! This brought me to tears! It's so sad even when your own flesh and blood, just literally puts all family out in the street 😡. The dad, is not a dead beat dad, as stated on this video, he works 2 jobs, while trying not to lose himself in giving up completely. The mom loves her kids, You can see that in her eyes. If I had seen this family in a mall.. I wouldn't even think they were homeless. I lived in the Bay area since the 70's and it's so sad the rent, gas..and he'll buying food had skyrocketed out of control! 😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣
advertising your family on the news, then your just asking for child protection to take the kids away
veg4life that’s best for the kids.
That's a super tough situation. I wish them luck.
Tell me about it. The Entire San Francisco bay area is skyrocketing expensive as hell. I was about to move there when I got hired by United Airlines but declined. Just not worth it.
my nieces is getting 1100 a month she's homeless they I promise they are ok.ca is high with welfare, but high rent,,,still I do believe there ok.ssa people are homeless to.
when I lost my job I took in lodgers to pay my mortgage. I managed to keep my two houses going with tenants and lodgers. Without sharing my home I would have lost them.
Leah Keyworth m
Leah Keyworth Very smart!
pretty fly for a wifi Yep squatters!
Its called you move out of the bay area. So many people will not move to where the jobs are because they like a specific area. Just move out of California in general and move to a more affordable state
My family lived in Azusa and Pasadena in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. We have never seen situations like this. Those with jobs always had a roof over their heads , I think. Now am seeing professionals living in their cars ... sad. Praying that the family will get a place to stay... 🙏🏻
Prayers for this good family in a bad situation I wish them success to get out of this situation.
Henlo human as you might not believe but I am that little girl. Its hard to believe but uhh yeah I am
Who told you to have this many kids
American Soldier The Bible does, maybe you should open one and read it
marv mauve then they should provide for them and Be able to give them a stable home . 😂😂😂😂😂
@@marvmauve5235 what a cop out answer.
I feel a tinge of remorse for them but IF SOMEONE is housing you (I.e you can't afford your own place even in that moment) DO NOT have 4 kids back to back in someone elses house???? hows that OK - a slip up of one is maybe OK but 4??? - wisdom my people - wisdom - don't breed if you never had your own place it's the thing that is sinking my continent Africa with poor people taking it upon themselves to fill the world - except you are in the USA, can't say you don't have an education or access to family planning like the people here so really you brought this up yourself as you don't mention ever having been living in your own place
Thats a great woman he has..thats real love for better and worse. Hope better times for this family!
Why do people that can't afford to have children are the ones that keep having as many as possible??? To get benefits perhaps?? In most places each person gets Food Stamps of $200 every month!! So a family of 6 gets $1200 a month in benefits which they often times sell!!
Stop having children you can't afford. You're living in a car. Why would you have another baby?
Very well said!!!
They like to F
They can't afford condoms
Why have many kids if you can't afford to take care of them?
Can’t pay rent but has 5 kids SMH….
Man work's 2 jobs and still struggling. I hate seeing stuff like this 😞 I hope to God they and others get the help they need
now that's call a real caring women. she has a warm heart. caring for her husband and not worrying about have money or home
nismo armada I call that a stupid woman.
Yeah but if she showed any sign of distress or worry for wanting to have a home, suddenly you would call her a golddigger or "not being supportive"
4 babies, which means 3 times on purpose, didn’t learn after the first one. 2 jobs, but that could mean 2 part time jobs, and no job for mom. minimum wage $10 full time is 1600 a month, add a little welfare, food stamps and medi-cal, and it’s totally doable. from experience, with a few exceptions, everyone is exactly where they deserve to be in life.
USA = 50 states + 2 territories. Why do you stay in a place that is so expensive?
It was said that that they can't afford to move, and then not know if they could find a job if they could relocate. The husband has 2 jobs there.
Lol, then you will be homeless in another state - but with better chances of renting an apartment after a few months
i agree, even if they move to a small apartment somewhere cheaper, the can go with the kids an the dad can stay back just for a month or two in his 2 jobs so their not pennyless, whilst reaching out an looking for a new job. It takes time an hardship but would be worth it in the end 😢 anything is better than sleeping in your car with the kids
i commend mrs. frost for sticking around. most women will leave for greener pastures when times get tough. mr. frost is a lucky man in spite of current circumstances. as long as they continue to stick together, they will be fine, no matter what.
this is just unacceptable, I hate how landlords just spike up rent year after year
Roger work hard and go buy your own fucking house you bum!
That's because housing is scarce and demand is very high.
this is just unacceptable, i hate how people continue to make kids that they are unable to care for
I am a landlord. Rents go up because insurance and property taxes go up every year. Also, many tenants leave damage to the home when they move out. One renter brought a dog into the house and ALL the carpeting had shit ground into it. The wood trim around the doors was chewed up and all of it had to be replaced. The cost of the damage exceeded the amount of all the rent that I collected from them. The security deposit didn’t even come close to paying for the damage. No insurance covers this. Add in the mortgage payments the landlord makes and you can see why rents are as high as they are. I didn’t even factor in the maintenance costs and my time and labor. P.S. Even the carpet padding had to be replaced because it was saturated with urine. You can’t wash that out.
Peanut and Oreo Bassett: Damn right, as a property owner I know how it feels.
Well you should quit having children and move somewhere where you can afford the rent
I swear people never look at the choices they make as why they struggle. 6 children? I'd argue many educated people with good paying jobs would struggle to take care of 6 children. I don't wish these nice folks any ill will, but parents with far fewer children struggle themselves and on top of it have taxes increased on them to take care of families like these. These are all young children, and hearing they were living with her mother, id say it's a safe bet they kept having more kids when they couldn't take care of the ones they already had,who's fault is that?
I hope they find themselves well and in good health. I don’t know their story but may god bless them always!
beautiful family praying they get the help they need right now
As a single mother I can't even get support from the government on 12 bucks an hour. I'm a landscaper and about to be living in my car with my kid. Because I don't want to have to be with a man to get by and in today's world this is how most women get stuck in abusive relationships. I hope this family is well and good now. Bless.
It's ridiculously expensive in the bay area. I have a good job in the bay area, and I commute 7 hours a day to/from work (longer if the traffic is particularly bad,) and I can't afford a studio apartment. (Even if I could, it would take all of my money and I wouldn't have money left over for savings, basic necessities, utilities, food, etc.) However, that being said, it would be a lot easier if they didn't have so many kids. (Seriously, if you can't afford kids, don't have them. It's unfair.) I can see if they had to move into their car extremely recently after they already had the kids, but according to the video, they were living with the mom's mother. That's hardly a situation where you should be popping out more kids because they obviously couldn't survive on their own as it was. The baby is extremely young and likely conceived after they were already car-bound. It's irresponsible. Plain and simple. I don't feel remorse for the parents at all, but only for their kids. There are other places to live than the bay area, especially if you don't have a particularly lucrative career.
Lakota828 you may have a good job but like you said if it's not lucrative career there are other places to live. You kinda contradicted yourself there. Also if you are commuting 7 hours a day you prob live in Sacramento or something it may be more expensive to live closer but if you work an 8 hour day you may as well cut your hourly wage in half because your commute doubles your work day. If all your money went toward an apartment where you work you could spend that other 7 hours on your own business increasing your income or fapping.
Jesse Dutton I'm commuted to the Bay Area for years. You can't cut your pay in half because you commute. Even with the commute, you are ahead money wise.
Lakota828 mo
Wasnt the parents of our lord and saviour jeebus footbound XD?
Armando Flores I'm not sure how your comment relates to the video
Many people walked to where they needed to get in those days. Even during my mother's time people walked almost every where they needed to go. I am not understanding the point you or trying to make.
Why do people have so many kids when they don't have the money to keep up with them😒
This man has a strong beautiful family. Good things will come to this family.
I swear if I had it like that of help get my man and his fam in a place and help him find more work. The girl is a trooper stay for stayin n w/ him. And when she called him a hero it seemed genuine. Dang. I don't know when this story aired but I hope things are better for them now
This man is working two jobs and people still have to be negative? There are plenty of people living it up in Cali with 0 jobs, yet this family is an issue?? People, get your shit straight!!!
Just Me 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Just Me thank you. everybody is saying why they have 4kids. like they could see their future and still decide to be homeless. everyone have their own struggles. Just because you're not in same situation doesn't mean they asked for the life they have now.
How about buying a Van or motor home? No rent, utility bills - 1 bedroom ? near $2,000 saved? @ 2 jobs= near working at $10. minimum wage - 60 hrs = $600 week $2400 a month? If numbers , Math not correct - can someone figure better? Free food, clothes everywhere?
+California Scenes
cool idea. ..a big van will be Better for them
Wonderful children but what were they thinking having 4 kids. I wish I could have had a whole bunch of kids but shit man I only had one. Things are only going to get worse thanks to greed.
GOD HELP THIS FAMILY YOU'RE THE GREATEST AND EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD BELONGS TO YOU WE DON'T OWN ANYTHING
Raymond don't let nobody put you and your family down you are doing good having 2 job.
You could work two jobs and still be homeless. these politicians needs to be ashamed of themselves. They have enough money to build more housing for the poor and middle class.
No one working a full time job should be homeless. Let alone two.
Is there a way you can provide contact information for this family so that I can offer some financial assistance?
My family is about to be homeless in 5 days, please contact me on Facebook at Aleyah Weiss
It's like we live in a society that punishes you for having children. Wages are low and childcare cost for most is not affordable. People say you should be prepared some people do start families and have good jobs and they can lose their job. Or get sick and can't provide. We should help homeless families instead of judging
How to not be homeless : don't live in the most expensive city in the USA!
They said he grew up there. They were living with her mother but she couldn't afford to have them living there anymore. He was two jobs but can't afford rent.
KC they grew up in the Bay Area, it use to be an affordable place. This place has many jobs but no type of affordable housing. If they leave the bay to go somewhere else, there is no guarantee that they'll find a job and will remain in the same predicament
KC is
Joe Mama I understand but they need to make that risk for their children... they need to rethink there options rather than wait for the city to change laws. Moving to Arizona or affordable states isn’t a bad thing if they carefully plan it
Easy for you to say
If you can't afford children, don't have any. If you can't afford in LA, move!!! Even with just a minimum wage job or two, you might be able to afford a decent home in a nearby state.
The thing is people start having kids like rabbits and once they find themselves deep in the hole, they don't know what to do. I feel bad for the parents, but it's not like someone forced them to make the wrong decisions. I hope they make it, though.
Do you even know what gentrification is?
AGREE! I
her quote about her husband "he goes beyond to make sure we're okay,"
good attitude, but no he's not =/ or you'd be okay, you're not okay, you are suffering... i feel bad.
Don't feel bad for stupid people
There's no reason for a family to be broken up due to financial reason alone. It's sad is they fear their children being taken.
This is sad. Rent is extremely high
Family of 6? Why have that many? Even with both parents working for an ok quality of life even 2 kids are enough. If they were living with his mom why keep breeding? I have zero sympathy.
Yeah, that wasn't very smart of them to have more children. But I on the other hand, do feel bad for them.. especially the poor children.
wow! this family deserves much better! at least the dad is working, my gosh , wtf? I know single people who don't work, got their kids taken away and they got free housing , food stamps the whole none yards

I live in Sweden...if they live in Sweden..the government will find them a place n gave them 3000 bucks every month
Maybe you can teach the daddy to use a fucking condom? Opps too late!
I live in a smaller city that SF. There are so many places a family can be helped. I pray they find them.
lifes not easy or fair. its all about the mighty dollar. getting very expensive to live and we will see more homeless people years to come. if. the rent keeps goinv up and jobs going away. govt needs to do something about this mess
this country needs to find balance. we cant even raise minimum wages because that will cause an increase in rent, utilities, groceries, gas, taxes, etc... therefore raising minimum wages wont help at all. the root of this problem is greed, and IRS is the leading cause of that...
USA allover needs affordable housing or tiny houses.
it's here, just not there
Hell, go to Ohio they have empty houses in every city.
hey I'm interested in moving out of California, I'm a chef and I plan on leaving with my 7 year old son what part of Ohio would u suggest???
+Real Canna Reviews Real Canna Reviews
Cleveland or Dresden
Why are there empty houses? What about jobs?
Real Canna Reviews Real Canna Reviews I'm from Ohio...Cleveland, Canton Ohio is very nice, cheap too some places.
Okay but are there jobs in Ohio that pay enough to afford those empty houses? Everyone keeps saying just move but you still need to live somewhere with a job you're qualified for to afford to live there too... IMO they need to break up tech corporations so they aren't all concentrated mainly on the west coast. It's turning into a nightmare and people who work in tech don't really have a choice but to be trapped in these areas. Look at what's happening to Austin, Seattle, and Portland now... These industries need to expand outside of the same 4 cities.
Respect to Raymond, his wife is truly amazing. Its so hard to find someone who will stick by you but she is with him every step.
But what about the food stamps?
A beautiful family down on their luck. Illness is the main reason homeowners lose their house in America. We could be next. If you can't have compassion for people Please keep comments to yourself.
Shame on that man for dragging that woman and all those kids into a situation like that. The downgrade from freeloading at someone’s house is squeezing your family into a car? Sad, that woman is being led by a fool. I have a feeling his mentality is the source of their poverty. He is not creative, ambitious or seems to have a sense of pride about himself to not let his family live like that. Men have it so easy in America, absolutely no standards for them having their -ish together before they try to marry you or have you running around having their kids left and right. If I was that woman I would leave expensive azz SF and that good for nothing man and create a better future for those kids.
How about instead of recording them and asking questions, y'all should actually help this family out by doing a fundraiser. Eventually these kids are going to get bigger and taller. We need to help support this family so this family can be happy. May God Almighty bless this family rich in love.
Blessings to the family. I pray that car doesn't ever break down, or have to go in the shop for a while!
Why stay with a man and continue to have kids with him if he can't put a roof over your head? This does make me more thankful for the things I have though.
Wth is your pfp?
Bless this family. I hope they soon get a real home.
I'm praying for them
I wish them luck,its crazy how much rent is now days even with a good paying career. Here is my problem with this story, they were living at her moms house until she couldn't afford housing them, why have a children if you can't afford your own place? People need to be responsible . What makes this story sad is that this looks like a very warm loving family.
No kidding
Rent here in Massachusetts for a 2 bdrm is going for 950 to 1200.00 a month absolutely ridiculous plus credit check and be able to afford the rent three times the amount per month some thing needs to be done there’s going to be more and more homeless ppl it’s just not right
Sherrie Lynn wow your rents are so cheap!!! Here in the Bay Area California a 2 bedroom is easily averaging between $3500-5000 a month. Oh to be in Massachusetts or another boondocks state.
They are much better than other homeless they have a car to live than under the bridge.
Their situations is so difficult specially the children. It's so sad being homeless. They have to constrict themselves from different routine like taking a bath, comfortable place to sleep and eat, pooping,
and many other things, so very sad.
Both of them should be " fixed ". Quit having babies you can't afford !
YOU got yourself into this situation !
So her mother can't let her and the kids live there... Why doesn't she have a job... I don't understand that...
Take your check and get a effiency or a hotel room for as long as it is until your next check.
The world is getting sadder unloving and unkind! Terrible to see a family living like this. I remember when my Dad was out of work for only two weeks he cried because he couldn't provide for his family so I can understand how the father is feeling. He wants adequate housing for his family. I hope and pray that they are in a nice home.
Update? How about Rep. Pelosi reaching out to help them since she is House Majority Leader representing San Francisco. How about Mayor Breed taking action?
You really think politicians can snap their fingers and save everyone? Suddenly the homeless and hungry are all taken care of?
I bet the car smells like heaven inside!
You can come to Pittsburgh Pa. Its much affordable here. Also, they do have low income apts and jobs.
Rosalyn Jennings he say they gone stay with y'all down there? lmao
I will contact him with someone that can help him help himself. You have to step out on faith like I did five years ago. You can find you an apt and do everything over the phone. I speak comfort, strength, provision, and protection over your family. You will overcome this keep your head up God is with you.
Help me please
Babe they are beautiful but you have to think before you have them ..because one day problems gonna control you .
so sad... i feel sorry for the children... the father can do so.much more..
Even as a native Californian, I am so glad I moved out of California and now live in New Mexico.
Agree! We moved to Wyoming! Next New Mexico.
