The cat is family, the boy wants to be with his mother. It's not helping if you have to give up your family. I wouldn't give up my dog for a shallow promise.
@@robertehatten4847 i have cats. They are not family. The mom does not have a home for her son to stay in. I could never imagine being able to afford to live in southern california even with a good job. It is not a right to live in the most desirable place in the country.
Hard to have compassion when someone refuses help. We all have to do things we’d rather not. Just because you’re homeless doesn’t mean you’re excluded from doing difficult things.
@@10MM-MAGAMAN-420you ain't making 22hr where I'm from working fast food . Hell most jobs won't even top you out at that kinda pay . Not to mention the cost of rent and everything else has shot up but wages haven't. I'm out here for the weather and to see and visit with friends.

Governor Newsom - Over the past 5 years California has spent $24 billion to tackle this problem and the homeless population has grown from 151,000 to 181,000. You are a smart man - see any problems with your policies? (The San Francisco Standard) (Hoodline). Despite this significant investment, the state has faced challenges in effectively tracking the outcomes of these expenditures, leading to questions about the efficacy of the programs. That's what California does best. Spends billions of dollars and then creates auditors to tell the people that their money was not tracked effectively. California does not audit how successful a program operates. In this case: how many people did the $24 billion dollars help to go from homelessness to a lifestyle where they are now self-sufficient. Just another of a long list of California progressive Democratic programs, wasting taxpayer money. If you keep voting for these politicians - you will keep getting these types of results.
@@Emmy-J I concur. The welfare benefits are also better than many other states. Also since Texas shut down their border to excessive "illegal immigration", the Mexican cartel has shifted the entry routes to California and Arizona. Jim
I went homeless in 2019. Quit my job of 10 years. Got rehired at job, the day we were told at shelter, we'd be moving to convention center in March 2020. Its hard to work at age 64, in a semi-physical job. But i got in a 'housing first' apt. I had to be more "FLEXIBLE" in order to have a place. Its boribg, I'm lonely, but times have changed.
You cant always have it your way, especially when you are entirely dependent on other people's money and resources. You gave up your independence. There is a price to pay for that.
She doesn’t want to stay in a shelter because she would have to give up her cat.. well sometimes you have to make sacrifices… when you’re homeless and want to get out of that situation you have to do things that are difficult in order to get ahead.
There are too many excuses. Make a plan. Give up the cat until you get housing. Same thing with her son. I chose to leave my family if I could do better elsewhere and reunite after a better situation. Doing nothing, you will get nothing. Stop asking for help if you refuse all offers.
@@Emmy-J This is exactly right. Do as I say not as I do kind of people. There are legit reasons why people do not want to stay in shelters yet it seems people refuse to listen or accept those reasons. "Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make" - Lord Farquaad
@Emmy-J Three of my siblings died in 2022. They were all homeless. They refused help. One of my siblings knew a girl in her 20's who stayed with him in his motorhome which was run down. After he died on the streets of L.A. she stayed in the motorhome until it was burned down. I encouraged her to get help. She finally did and stayed in a motel room shelter with her dog. She recently got a housing voucher and will be moving into her own place soon far from Skid Row. Change is possible if we are willing to make an effort and accept help.
@@Emmy-J Well yeah, the concept of shelter is to give people a safe place to sleep, shower, and get connected to social worker and resources. It's not to provide longer-term housing solutions because the city budget (tax payers) is unable to justify the costs. The unfortunate challenge is the the "best" option for her is to temporarily break her family (she can still visit the group home during the day, or her mom in the nursing home) while "working" to gain employment. She goes to the library, gets connect to a non-profit/public jobs training program. It's work but she has to do it - of course where public dollar support is reasonable.
I want to live in San Diego, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, but I can’t afford it. These people just don’t give a damm. It’s always everyone else’s fault and society didn’t do enough. Personal responsibility, work hard, maybe harder, or move. Sick of these people’s guilt trip
Why don't you work harder to live in these cities? Why can' t you afford it?Ever thought that many of these homeless maybe from there? You want them to move where you live so they can be able to afford it then?
@@nebojsaborkovich9196 I live within my means. If I can't afford those cities, I live where I can. I have had to move many times in my lives for opportunities & where my budget can allow it. I also work two jobs at time, including my wife. We make many sacrifices to live with what we have. I have seen plenty along the way who are lazy, whiney, prone to bad life choices, and lives beyond their mean. We suffer when we make terrible choices, do not work hard, and live beyond our means. Simple. Get off the streets, don't do drugs, work hard & stop feeling so entitled.
@@simplerway489 Ok fair enough about you.This is nothing personal understand.You think employers just can't wait to give these people jobs and all are young and strong? Mentally stable individuals right? So what would YOU do with them since they most certainly will not or can not change.(Some may).? Put them in concentration camps? Also do you think only the wealthy deserve to live in those places since they can afford it?Some by also working 3 jobs?No other Americans deserve to live in their own country and city they are from because they may be "lazy" or made some poor life choices? Obviously neither the state nor federal governments want to do anything serious about this.Other than make their lives even harder.And this homelessness "phenomenon" is widespread all over the country.Not only in big and wealthy cities.It is a big problem in Blue and Red states.How would you help solve it other than painting with a wide brush and being prejudiced against those less fortunate? Any ideas?
Why do people want to come to San Diego. That's how this place became to pricey , all the state out of the state weirdos dream about coming here. I can't wait to leave..
Homelessness is the Failures of people to fully embrace and manage their Responsibilities of Adult Living. Sometimes the only thing life is about is Responsibilities and Work. After meeting our Responsibilities of Adult Living many of us don't have anything left.
Homeless wanted! Ukraine is hiring at $4800 per month with free food, uniforms, shelter and training! Contact the UA Foreign legion at the local Ukrainian Embassy today! English and Spanish speakers accepted!
Instead of giving billions to organization s, give the money to the people. Let the people find a place to rent. It would be a lot cheaper than the trickle down that's happening now.
I feel awful for her. But then when you ask yourself it’s either “her way” or all of society crashes. I start hearing a lot of small excuses. They aren’t small to her and I definitely don’t think small of her. But in comparison to “BIG PICTURE” her excuses are small and doing it her way means the downfall of society. We are going against Darwanism by empowering the weak. We don’t have to let them die, we can help them. But there must be stricter rules and zero excuses allowed. Zero.
Her son although disabled may benefit from learning life skills in a group home. He is 20 which is an appropriate age to leave your parent. If it doesn't work out he could go back to her and the cats. Idk risking being raped and/or robbed vs. Keeping my cats. Hmmm...If they are both disabled they should both be getting SSI. Several options may exist based on her specific situation but it may be she likes the one she has chosen.
Being homeless is hard. But it can be good and fun if you work. And stay away from homeless camps is the first rule out there. Cops and the public will generally leave you alone if you have a job, appear clean, and sleep stealthily. Stay off drugs, and keep good company. I am all for disbanding the camps.
Don’t judge them pray for them! 🙏 Homelessness has become a huge business!!! Blame those crooked government officials. Stop donating to those crooked people because nothing is going to benefit those homeless people. It’s all going to benefits the big fish!! Big fish eats the small fish.
Praying for each one of those homeless people I’m very thankful to the lord that I’m not one of those homeless people!! It’s a very tough hard life to be homeless. We shouldn’t be judging those people until we hear their own stories because every single one of them have a different story and circumstances that led them to become homeless people. God have mercy on those people because they’re a victims of those crooked organizations including the human services, shelters and those none profit organizations.
These cities are spending three-four times as much as it would cost just to put the homeless people into housing to just kick people around with law enforcement and never solve the problem. It costs $1100 per month for the government to put a homeless person into an apartment. It costs $3300 per month to leave that person on the street and kick them around with expensive law enforcement to still have that person living in unsafe and rotten conditions so that they end up in emergency rooms. A temporary shelter bed costs $3300 per month and is temporary, putting the person back on the street to go through the cycle.again. it costs $50000 per year to jail someone in California (and in every other state), and that doesn't even count the cost of adjudication, and even public lawyers and judges aren't cheap. Not only are you creating a greater level of suffering in the towns with these bans, you are paying a lot more to be cruel to your fellow citizens. Stop being dummies who can't do the math and house your homeless already.
Believe me the state has literally spent billions trying to build places for homeless people to live shelters apartments, etc. it doesn’t work a lot of these people coming to California to live on the street because the weather is good and they can get a check and that’s the truth .

@cherylbrantley4736 you don't know what you are talking about. I'm in NorCal, where people die of exposure every winter, and the Bay Area is a tough marin environment that kills people with a combination of moisture and cold. Though people have always come here with CA dreams , most homeless people are homeless in the counties and cities that they are from. All that, and they haven't even tried to house the homeless. They do projects with developers that pay lip service to affordable housing by having a couple of affordable units, but the rest have been for-profit housing at market rates. The rest of the money has been wasted on shelters, hotels, drug rehabs, and mental health lock-ups. All of it is temporary housing, and a lot of it has been shut down post COVID emergency. There are tons of housing units in CA that are sitting there empty because they are owned by hedge funds or foreign rich people hiding money from taxes in their home countries in CA real estate. It is the reason for homelessness in the first place, CA refuses to control rents or housing prices and forces everyone to compete with hedge funds and foreign money. The big banks have taken control of housing by becoming the biggest landlords in the state, controlling prices as an oligopoly, so there is no competition to bring down prices. So, prices must always go up. The same thing is happening in whatever state and town you are in. If you haven't been priced out of your home yet, don't worry, they are coming for you too. Beleive me as someone who spent fifteen years living in cars in CA, the homeless person is not at all incontrol of whether they are housed or not. I'm not a drug addicts, or mentally ill. I didn't, and don't get public money. I have been lucky in that I am an artist who spent a lifetime learning to create art I am able to sell. I wasn't able to break out of the economic prison I was put in. The best I could do was sustain my life amidst incredible suffering. The things I have seen on the street haunt me still. Hope this informs your ignorance.
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.” Thomas Jefferson
I’m gone be honest they giving these people resources and ect if you don’t want to go to a shelter because of your cats and son don’t want to get help because he can’t leave his moms side I pray things change but I don’t feel bad for these people just let them be but they can’t be in the inner city near businesses and houses
Go undercover to those shelters and live among those homeless people for a few days!! It’s chocking to see the amount of cruelty, disrespect towards the homeless people by those who are calling themselves good humans who are there to help and serve those who are unfortunate people who are having a hard life living in the streets. Security people who are hired by the Salvation Army are criminals thugs. Those volunteers are worse living 24 hours behind closed doors working for free and they are allowed to get a free beds and food etc … The employees are taking all of those good stuff that being donated to their homes, driving expensive cars, receiving help with their down payment for rent and other benefits including free hygiene stuff, free food !! They gets to choose the clothes and take the good stuff first before they allow the homeless people to get some of those clothings. Showers are allowed at the evening time for only 5 minutes. No water or free dinners. Most of their staff at the office are spending all day long sitting around pretending to be doing their jobs. People are wondering why we have so many homeless people including seniors and it’s gotten worse and worse by the day !! Not everyone is being helped!! Stop given money to those organizations including the Salvation Army who are ruining people’s lives. They only helping those veterans who are having benefits!! If you don’t have any income you will be living in the streets until death! I have seen people fainting on the ground outside those shelters because of the hot summer weather and they didn’t have enough water !! In one week I have seen about 5 people who have passed away in the streets while waiting outside to get in one of them was a senior in the wheelchair!! 😢 Every single day those first responders and ambulance services were called to transport those lucky survivors to the hospital !! Those managements and employees are enjoying the overwhelming amount of homeless people coming there because without them they will not have jobs and those benefits. Everything good goes to the staff and the managers and the expired food and left over clothes will be distributed to the homeless people. I could just write all day long it will not be enough to say everything I have seen. Its crooked systems is being used by those humans who are running those facilities including shelters.
I guess the state of California and all these cities' police departments have just given up on reckless driving and drunk or drugged driving and instead have decided to go after public camping. I'm way more afraid of the other drivers in this state than I am the majority of homeless people. We are the number one state for road rage and I fear that this will take police resources away from serious crimes. As well it doesn't make any sense that somehow public camping is illegal, but you can steal a bunch of stuff but receive little to no consequences.
Does Bobbie have her own source of income, or is she surviving on her son's disability check? She needs her own income, whether it is SSI or a job. She needs to go to a shelter in order to begin the process of getting permanent housing. There are foster homes for pets of homeless people in Los Angeles. There could be a volunteer who would look after her cats for the time being. If she needs assistance, she needs to be willing to be in a program and follow rules. She refused shelter because of her cats. Her son could be in a group home until she gets housing for herself, her son, and her cats.

Please be careful what you say for anyone could end up in the same place. Bobbie is my cousin, Jacob is my second cousin and her mom Laurie is my Aunt, you don't know what her and her family have gone through and what they continue to go through. She is right the only way you are going to know way they deal with and how to help is to talk with them.
Hard choices, sacrifice, effort, mental health care, and following rules may be necessary for your cousin to get permanent housing. A group home for her son and foster care for her cats could give her a chance to do what is necessary to be able to live with her son and cats under one roof.
You don't have any idea what we've gone through to be successful. My Mother was a Paranoid Schizophrenic and my Father was an Often Absent Alcoholic. We grew up in Abject Poverty. I've worked full-time 60-80 hours a week since I was 15 years old and I attended Regular High School full-time. I left home at 18 years of age for 4 years in the Military during the Vietnam War Era followed by Community College with a little help from the GI Bill. Everything in my life from the age of 13 has been a business decision including not having children. Life is only about the Responsibilities of Adult Living.
I know a young woman in Los Angeles. She was homeless and finally accepted help. She had a dog and was given long term shelter in a motel room. She now has a housing voucher and will be renting her own apartment far from Skid Row.

They do projects with developers that pay lip service to affordable housing by having a couple of affordable units, but the rest have been for-profit housing at market rates. The rest of the money has been wasted on shelters, hotels, drug rehabs, and mental health lock-ups. All of it is temporary housing, and a lot of it has been shut down post COVID emergency.
There are tons of housing units in CA that are sitting there empty because they are owned by hedge funds or foreign rich people hiding money from taxes in their home countries in CA real estate. It is the reason for homelessness in the first place, CA refuses to control rents or housing prices and forces everyone to compete with hedge funds and foreign money.
The big banks have taken control of housing by becoming the biggest landlords in the state, controlling prices as an oligopoly, so there is no competition to bring down prices. So, prices must always go up. The same thing is happening in whatever state and town you are in. If you haven't been priced out of your home yet, don't worry, they are coming for you too.
Beleive me as someone who spent fifteen years living in cars in CA, the homeless person is not at all incontrol of whether they are housed or not. I'm not a drug addicts, or mentally ill. I didn't, and don't get public money. I have been lucky in that I am an artist who spent a lifetime learning to create art I am able to sell. I wasn't able to break out of the economic prison I was put in. The best I could do was sustain my life amidst incredible suffering. The things I have seen on the street haunt me still.
Hope this informs your ignorance.
I wonder why this lady doesn’t take the resources they still don’t trust the best thing they could do is move out of the state
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”
Thomas Jefferson
I’m gone be honest they giving these people resources and ect if you don’t want to go to a shelter because of your cats and son don’t want to get help because he can’t leave his moms side I pray things change but I don’t feel bad for these people just let them be but they can’t be in the inner city near businesses and houses
They just have to go.... Anywhere but HERE
Go undercover to those shelters and live among those homeless people for a few days!! It’s chocking to see the amount of cruelty, disrespect towards the homeless people by those who are calling themselves good humans who are there to help and serve those who are unfortunate people who are having a hard life living in the streets. Security people who are hired by the Salvation Army are criminals thugs. Those volunteers are worse living 24 hours behind closed doors working for free and they are allowed to get a free beds and food etc … The employees are taking all of those good stuff that being donated to their homes, driving expensive cars, receiving help with their down payment for rent and other benefits including free hygiene stuff, free food !! They gets to choose the clothes and take the good stuff first before they allow the homeless people to get some of those clothings. Showers are allowed at the evening time for only 5 minutes. No water or free dinners. Most of their staff at the office are spending all day long sitting around pretending to be doing their jobs. People are wondering why we have so many homeless people including seniors and it’s gotten worse and worse by the day !! Not everyone is being helped!! Stop given money to those organizations including the Salvation Army who are ruining people’s lives. They only helping those veterans who are having benefits!! If you don’t have any income you will be living in the streets until death! I have seen people fainting on the ground outside those shelters because of the hot summer weather and they didn’t have enough water !! In one week I have seen about 5 people who have passed away in the streets while waiting outside to get in one of them was a senior in the wheelchair!! 😢 Every single day those first responders and ambulance services were called to transport those lucky survivors to the hospital !! Those managements and employees are enjoying the overwhelming amount of homeless people coming there because without them they will not have jobs and those benefits. Everything good goes to the staff and the managers and the expired food and left over clothes will be distributed to the homeless people. I could just write all day long it will not be enough to say everything I have seen. Its crooked systems is being used by those humans who are running those facilities including shelters.
I guess the state of California and all these cities' police departments have just given up on reckless driving and drunk or drugged driving and instead have decided to go after public camping. I'm way more afraid of the other drivers in this state than I am the majority of homeless people. We are the number one state for road rage and I fear that this will take police resources away from serious crimes. As well it doesn't make any sense that somehow public camping is illegal, but you can steal a bunch of stuff but receive little to no consequences.
Does Bobbie have her own source of income, or is she surviving on her son's disability check? She needs her own income, whether it is SSI or a job. She needs to go to a shelter in order to begin the process of getting permanent housing. There are foster homes for pets of homeless people in Los Angeles. There could be a volunteer who would look after her cats for the time being. If she needs assistance, she needs to be willing to be in a program and follow rules. She refused shelter because of her cats. Her son could be in a group home until she gets housing for herself, her son, and her cats.
Build camps in the desert.

Get a job
Too bad California hates building homes. People feel that San Diego is overcrowded. So they don’t allow for new developments. So now there kids have to leave the state. The irony.
이렇게 거리로 나올만큼 위기상황일때 절망적인 상태에서 가족이 함께하고픈 절실한 ㅏ음 아들과 함께 살수있도록 응급집이 생겼으면 가끔씩 법이 너무나 경직되어서 그들의 마지막 정신적위안과 평안 부디 이 여자분이 어들과함께 살수있으면 좋겠다
마국이 개인의 비밀공간을 혼자만의 공간이 중요하다고 가르치면서 홈리스라고 강제로 엄격한 법을 따르라고 강요하니 밖으로더리생활을 하는것이다 쉘터의 법을 좀더 완화하고안에서의 왕따 폭력 마약등을 감시하는것은 필요하나 새벽에 깨워서 밖으로 쫒아내는것은 가혹한 일이다거리에서 생활하면 몸도 마음도 병들고 지쳐서 안식이 필요하다 가능한 봉사자들 모임에 아침도 제공하고9 시 쯤 나가게 하는것이 옳을것이다

Please be careful what you say for anyone could end up in the same place. Bobbie is my cousin, Jacob is my second cousin and her mom Laurie is my Aunt, you don't know what her and her family have gone through and what they continue to go through. She is right the only way you are going to know way they deal with and how to help is to talk with them.
Hard choices, sacrifice, effort, mental health care, and following rules may be necessary for your cousin to get permanent housing. A group home for her son and foster care for her cats could give her a chance to do what is necessary to be able to live with her son and cats under one roof.
You don't have any idea what we've gone through to be successful. My Mother was a Paranoid Schizophrenic and my Father was an Often Absent Alcoholic. We grew up in Abject Poverty. I've worked full-time 60-80 hours a week since I was 15 years old and I attended Regular High School full-time. I left home at 18 years of age for 4 years in the Military during the Vietnam War Era followed by Community College with a little help from the GI Bill. Everything in my life from the age of 13 has been a business decision including not having children. Life is only about the Responsibilities of Adult Living.
Tell us then, help us understand why she such a failure so that others may learn .
Houseing asst dose not work
I know a young woman in Los Angeles. She was homeless and finally accepted help. She had a dog and was given long term shelter in a motel room. She now has a housing voucher and will be renting her own apartment far from Skid Row.
Tell me now how woke is good.
Time to quit working in any chitty, that doesn't pay enough to live there.m
