Door To Door Small Children
2,027 wordsThe zipper is a very common fastener used to secure all kinds of things, especially clothing. But the zipper wasn't always around. Before the zipper was invented, buttons were used in fastening clothes, and so were hooks and eyes that had to be fastened manually.

Mentally Ill Drug Abusers
618 wordsHomelessness is not something that was created over night; it has existed for a long time; often we choose not to see the homeless, or bother with them, so we look the other way. Homelessness is not prejudice toward race, creed, or religion -- it has no boundaries; all homeless people should not be stereotyped as being drug abusers or the mentally ill that have been released from mental hospitals. Homelessness is not a disease that a person can catch from bodily contact, but it certainly has aff...

Socially Constructed Homeless Population
1,429 wordsHomelessness There has been a long debate about the definition of homelessness in Western countries (Polakow & Guillean 118).

It is usually accepted that those who sleep in public places or squat in derelict buildings are homeless, but the following questions are often raised. How should we classify...

But I feel in my heart that all people with no homes, or lives for that matter, should get some sort of help to survive and get back on their feet so that...
