For example, in 2012 more than 40% were not in education, employment or training. 68% of homelessness organisations said there was not enough youth-specific emergency accommodation, while 43% of local authorities reported placing young people in unsuitable B&B accommodation, as well as 6 in 10 homelessness organisations being unable to support a young person due to limited capacity. Homelessness is not only a housing problem. There are lots of reasons why a young person could become homeless. More than half of young people become homeless because of a relationship breakdown, mainly with their parents.
Sociologically, grieving within families is not an easy task. Each family member reacts to death differently and forces family members to make changes in their lives in order to adjust to life without this family member. Raney and Charles had a hard time accepting the suicide of Uncle Nate. When Charles voiced his opinion that Uncle Nate was clearly depressed, obsessive-compulsive, and crippled from his life experiences, thus needing psychological help in order to heal, Raney took it as an insult. In Raney’s mind, Charles was placing blame on her, her family, and specifically, her mother who spent most of her time taking care of Uncle Nate.

Children many times also seek out a significant other that reminds them of their incarcerated parent to fill that void.
This can involve telling the senior that they will be harmed or will be left to fend for themselves when they are clearly not capable of being independent. Letting the senior think they will be physically harmed just to scare them is another form or told they will be sent to a long term care facility. There is also self neglect where the elder will not accept any help from anyone. Some signs of self neglect could be poor hygiene, significant weight loss or gain, frequent illnesses that go untreated, hoarding, not wearing the right clothing for the weather conditions and increasing mental deterioration. Self neglect is the most frequently reported form of abuse.
You can see many homeless people everywhere in America. The most recently available national data on homelessness states: “There are 633,782 people were experiencing homelessness in January 2012” (The State of Homelessness in America 2013). It means about 20 homeless people per 10,000 people in general population. A majority of persons identified as homeless were staying in emergency shelters or transitional housing, but 38% were unsheltered. According surveys, I think high unemployment rate and low employment rate, mental illness and domestic violence can cause people becoming homeless in America.
My Most Emotional Experience One of the most emotional experiences I have every experienced was when I lost my best friend. Losing someone who has been through everything with you is hard.
