What, really? Objectivity? I could go into the details of how my family became homeless when my mother ran way with 3 kids to hide in the woods in order to escape my father who would randomly kidnap us and leave us in hotel rooms for a week at a time to be gang raped. He nearly killed my mother more times than I can count.  

But you don't want to hear about non truths like this. The objective truth is that my mom was  an alcoholic who chose to raise her children in a tent just for the fun of it, not at all because life sometimes turns out drastically different than you had hoped when you decide to get married after you conceive a daughter 6 months after your first abortion. I was the daughter that my mother decided to have. I was the objective decision that ruined her life and the children conceived after me. This is one example of how homelessness happens in spite of the best intentions. The objective truth is that there are as  many reasons for homeless as there are people's lives.
