[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely to all of the above. I like the idea of the small supervised housing and I do believe skills can be taught in most cases.

There are so many basics that are taken for granted if you are middle class and/or average intelligence that it's easy not to see that some folks just don't have this foundation to draw on including a family safety net.

I had college friends woefully mismanaged their money and credit but they were never in danger of homelessness while they learned.

I have a friend who adopted a daughter from the rural version of Shamika's situation and with intensive monitoring, interventions and special schooling has made it to age 26 without any children and holds a job. It has been a long road for the adoptive family but worth I think. The rural mother lives in government sponsored motels in the Midwest and her other children have varying outcomes depending on who raised them. The ones that received the least interventions early are the ones costing society now with prison time, housing costs, [/quote]
