Homeless Children article
In this article there is a family that lives in Florida. They move from hotel to hotel. The children in their family are 7 years old and 4 years old. They are invisible because when you are that young you need attention from you parents to look after you. These kids are not getting that attention because their parents are focusing on getting a shelter. Being homeless impacts these kids lifes a lot. When they are homeless they do not have all the things to live, such as a house. They do not have things we take for granted. There are 2.5 million children with no home.
