This article just tells me how lucky i am to have a shelter to live in, a great family, and an a education.According to the article, more than 1.5 million children are homeless. Also, about 1.16 million of homeless children today will not graduate from high school. That is really sad. We should find ways to help them.

this article really does make me want to cry. It makes me wonder how many people know about these children. I feel very lucky to have a roof over my head and a nice place to rest my head each and every night. I really feel ashamed sometimes to call America my home when I see these kinds of things. We need to do something about these and help our children be successful and live comfortably.

It really is amazing to think that America does have so many homeless people. We look at this nation as being the most powerful in the world, but at the same time, we have just as many problems as other nations. It makes you realize how much you really do have.

America is supposed to be a well educated country that cares about the children that will one day make our future America. America is supposed to make sure that all children are living in a decent enviroment and being taken care of while getting a good educatio1n. The government is worried about other countries being able to pay for the kids to get their education and have a safe place to lay their head while here in our own country more than 1.5 million American children are homeless, and 1.16 children will not graduate from High School.
