I am a single working mother and going to college for a better life for my three-year-old child and myself£®I am taking a nurse course called ¡°Urban Community£¨ÉçÇø£©¡±£®We were asked to do a major project on problems in urban communities£®I chose the topic ¡°Homeless¡±£®
Each day I would walk down the streets of the homeless and offer them something to drink and to eat£®I know it¡¯s tough to survive on the streets£®Last night I ran into a group of 30 kids who were living on the streets in New York£®My heart went out to them and I just wanted to cry£®But I had to be strong£®
I asked about their families and if they contacted them to let them know they were alive£®Most of them said, ¡°NO!¡± They all looked like a happy family and they took care of one another£®I tried to persuade them to get help and to contact their families but they did not want to£®I did not want to make them to do it as they had their own reasons£®
All these kids were very respectful£®None of them was high on drugs nor were they drinking£®Some of them enjoyed reading and writing£®Some of them enjoyed skateboarding, dancing and playing music£®
One girl asked me if I could give her a hug and I did so£®She started to cry and said, ¡°Thank you for not treating us as freaks£¨¹ÖÈË£©like everyone else does£®People don¡¯t realize that we all have our own problems and some are worse than others£®¡± She told me that her stepfather £¨¼Ì¸¸£© was extremely mean to her and her mother did not believe her£®She ran away£®Her street name was Little Mary£®
They were good kids just trying to make ends meet£®I told them that I didn¡¯t have much to offer because I was a single mother just making ends meet£®I had offered them sandwiches and drinks£®They were so happy to have something to eat and told me that I couldn¡¯t change the world but at least there was someone who really cared£®
