Photo 20: Poverty and Families

Photo 20: I had seen a mother and her child outside a grocery store for weeks prior to this assignment and for some reason once I decided to do the blog didn't see them anymore. So I ended up taking a picture off the Internet of a homeless family with signs asking for help.

Sociological Perspective: In the United States, who is most likely to be in poverty? Homeless? How does poverty affect families? How does it affect young children in families? What strategies or mechanisms do families use to overcome poverty? How is poverty linked to race-ethnicity and family?
