The Homeless
Fatoumata Karamoko
The problem is that people don’t have a home to live.
The people don’t have a home because they don’t have money. No work, no family, mental disabilities, no doctor, no medicine, physical disabilities.
It is dangerous for the homeless because these people sleep outside sometimes in the weather. A lot of people die because it is cold.
It makes me feel bad that they sleep outside. I see these people who sleep outside in the park. Sometimes they are very dirty and hungry. They smoke and drink alcohol. They don’t know what to do. These people are sometimes old and younger too.
But this is not the same as Africa. In Africa, when you finish college, if you are lucky, you can get work to do. But sometimes, some people finish their college, but they don’t have work, no money, no home. Some people go stay with their family if somebody in the family has a lot of money.
There are some people who have a lot of problems in their heads. They think every day about this because they don’t have money or work to fix this problem. They can become crazy because they don’t have a home to live, no food, no clothes, no family.
And there are some people who are lazy.
I think the government needs to help people with more free housing and low-income housing for their health.
That God helps us for everything in our life.
