I couldn't believe that you could live inside Wal-mart! You think you could live inside the airport without security bothering you eh? That happened too! I mean it could happen to you.
I think to live inside Wal-Mart is better than to live inside the airport. LOL.
Crazy situations can land anybody homeless living in the most unexpected places. It's a matter of correct-wise thinking that you should not have babies or get pregnant if you have no means to support your child. It's a moral lesson that young people should be responsible enough to support a family. You don't have work and you can't support yourself therefore you wont be able to support another person. It's a different situation probably if the parents of those young people are rich and influential.
"Where The Heart Is" movie starring Natalie Portman make us believe that you can also be a freeloader at Wal-Mart after she was abandoned by her boyfriend. The security and clerks plus the management knew that kind of situation but they can't do anything about it. Rather is sort of "patay-malisya" because how can you help? Would you accept a homeless pregnant woman inside your house? Natalie's portrayal of an abandoned pregnant woman is one of those crazy, unforgettable situation and condition of being homeless. Why she had chosen Wal-Mart instead of a Transition House? Well duh, she was a helpless human being, female and she was in Oklahoma and maybe government help is out of reach.
Is the movie based on true-story? Maybe or maybe not!
You know writers can write as many stories they could think of whether real, reel, fiction, fantasy or whatever comes to mind, on spur of the moment.
There's probably such kind of story and truth to that story. How many homeless people anyway in certain demographic area? Social workers can do the survey and the survey can always lead to asking for fund and or budget from the government. Ha ha ha! You think that's easy eh? In uncertain times all they do is stay away from controversy. However, why should they? They can only find out once somebody comes at the front of their desk and apply for such help. In a limited budget it's always a case per case basis.
The GOOD THING about helping helpless people is they owed allegiance to those who helped them. They develop sense of bound a secret pact that leads to humanity, kindness, compassion and cooperation. We are all humans and when somebody is so needy and helpless wouldn't you lend a helping hand?
