Answer 1

1. Yes, homelessness exists in a lot of places. Mostly places like NYC where there aren't that many places to live unless you have a ton of money.

2. I feel weird seeing a homeless person, I usually ignore them because its kind of creepy knowing that I have all this stuff and a roof over my head and they don't have as much.

3. (This you'll have to basically answer on your own, plus number one depends)

4. Think of a roleplay type of thing and then just write about her. Quite easy really. I'd make one up for you but I don't know what your teacher actually wants and we have limited space on yahoo.

Answer 2

Go to the site below. It is a homeless man writing about himself and his life. On the right of the page is some links to click on where he explains homelessness and life as a homeless person. There is alot of info. here. This is like interviewing a homeless person yourself and then you can write your own opinions. I know a homeless person. I have known several. They are just people down on their luck. They don't scare me. There are shelters and places that cook and serve meals to the homeless. Alll communities have homeless individuals however some places have more than other places do. Good luck to you. I know you can do this project. It shouldn't be that hard with the help of this link to learn more about homeless people.

Answer 3

1.You need to do your own local research on this one.
2. Is a personal question only you can answer.
3. Again this is a personal question
4. This should be easy, just imagine what it would be like to not have a home. What challenges would you have? What would you do to get food, where would you sleep, how would people treat you etc?

This is an assignment that you can do on your own really.
