-Poverty :[

Poverty is a common problem that occurs in the youth and community.  Poverty is having little or no money and few or no material possessions.  All around the world family’s deal with poverty because they’re family are less fortunate.  In the Rochester area families have a lot of kids and lots of nieces and nephews so they need to have a decent job and a decent house for your family.  Most families with low income and a lot of children in the U.S. they are eligible for food stamps.  Food stamps is money you get every month on a certain day to buy food for your family.  People that don’t have jobs can be eligible for unemployment and they get a certain amount of money every month.  In the book “PayBack by Paul Langan Tyray’s parents live in a very poor area.  Tyray’s mother and father was less fortunate & Tyrays father had to work two jobs to provide for his family.  My advice to someone who live somewhere where they have a lot of poverty is to go out and get a job or two and if you don’t have a job try to apply for unemployment.
