Cycle of poverty

The same cycle of poverty happening over and over again with the same results.  Poverty impacts lives, it limits choices and options so it can be hard to break the cycle.

Poverty Reflection

as we take a look at poverty and wealth I thought it would be worth while to watch the following two videos.  Not to alarm anyone but it is a reality that people are living in an age where circumstances can change in a heartbeat. In you ’NEW POST’ please write two to three paragraphs answering and discussing the following questions.   What challenges do you think these kids face.  Can you understand why poverty is often described as a cycle (going around in a circle).  Do you have more opportunities then these children? Why or why not?  Do you think people who are living in poverty have created their own problems?  Support your answer.  Have a great day!
