Women and their children who are in abusive relationships sometimes stay in that relationship to avoid homelessness.
My first reaction to having such an extremely serious situation regarding our society addressed under "Trivia Tuesday" is very disturbing. In no instance should the word trivia been associated with the issues we face with poverty in this country. I understand that it wasn't intended to minimize or "trivialize" the poverty issue by presenting it on "Trivia Tuesday" but I think there should have been more forethought to doing so. Thank you for the opportunity to commment.
I am not shocked that on this survey I received 3 out of 4 because when you have been there you just know. I was homeless at a point in my life and although it was just a few years at that time it seemed like eternity.
