[quote=Anonymous]Back in the mid to late 1990s, one of the most powerful exhibits I ever saw at the Corcoran was called "Raised by Wolves" which was a photo/video exhibition by an artists named Jim Goldberg about street kids in LA---a 20 year ago version of the phenomenon you are describing in SF. Sad and disturbing. The kids who usually wind up in that milieu are there because they were failed by the adults in their childhood---one of the protagonists of the exhibit---a young woman who had become a runaway and speed freak because of her stepfather's sexual abuse---eventually got straightened out, while her street cohorts did not fare as well. I still vividly remember the interviews the artist did with them in which they told their respective stories. [/quote]
