Your content in this video touched my heart, I always feel so sad when I see homeless in streets that makes me cry !! Finally thank u for ur efforts, I love u and ur channel All Love to u 💖🙏
Thank you for being here. I'm glad there are people who aren't numb to the problem. We may not know what the solutions are, but I think it's still important to care.
@@Englishwithjennifer I think, governments can solve this problem when they consider homeless is a part of society Not a problem that need help them to live like us! People see and think the homeless in street like they are just bad furniture in a road.
I think a good number of people care, but the problem is overwhelming, and as one individual on a single day, a person doesn't think that any single action would make enough of a difference. I also think Americans are willing to see some of their tax dollars go towards solving this problem, but only if there's a feasible plan and the money is managed well.
I really like the way you teach pronounciation and was looking for a video to learn how to pronounce th after z or s sound. The transition between th and z or s is challenging to a lot of people. Thanks
Thank you for watching. I have pronunciation videos on YT and Instagram. #enlgishwithjenniferlebedev You may like my linking lessons in the Fast Speech series. www.englishwithjennifer.com/students/yt-videos/
Yes, it's a global issue. I imagine that the causes are similar, but there are variations from region to region, even within the U.S. We should pay attention to the countries with low populations of homeless people. The U.S. obviously needs some models to follow. I'm not sure what they are, though.
Some aren't ready for this discussion. Some would rather I take a firmer stance on all these issues. Some prefer a different style. I'm happy if the majority find the lesson useful. :) Thanks for your support, Hamza.
Hello Jennifer! Thank you so much for the detailed explanation of that theme! Your ability to set up a classification of things is just incredible. To answer something to your questions is difficult. I think people should be more kind to other people. It is not a solution, of course. It's only a key to solving social problems in any country, in my opinion.
Hi Sergei. I appreciate the positive feedback. These issues are huge and complex. I'm doing my best to tackle them with only a few days of research, a day writing, a day of filming, and two long days of editing. Thank you for watching this new video. I fully agree that kindness matters. Some of the problems in this world would be reduced with more acts of kindness.
Hi , Jennifer. It is a problem that exists in all countries of the world , but thanks God we still have the concept of family and solidarity and we help the person who needs help . Please accept this flower🥀
1. Even something beautiful has hidden dangers. Even someone or something that appears beautiful and perfect on the outside can have imperfections on the inside. 2. Everyone gets lucky once and a while or has the chance to experience some happiness.
I experienced displacement(homelessness) for a brief moment. Mind you, i was about 4 months pregnant walking around with a nonverbal 2 year old and a almost one year old who wasn't yet walking. We didnt experience the extremities of homelessness as many others have though. We were in shelters and such and didn't have to be on the streets. Thank God. 💙 The most disturbing status of homelessness are veterans because of how America boasts in patriotism. Those vets should be given all the attention needed to ensure they are well and their families.
Excellent theme, specially in poor countries of South Asia. You have done it. Teaching English using socially relevant topics. On a recent visit to Budapest In Hungary , I was surprised to see the homeless digging for food in garbage cans. They were hungry. Even women were begging on the roads. Sad that world over, we are not able to deal with poverty. Homeless abound in the Government area in Washington DC. Arun Goyal New Delhi India By the way, I am learning web development with html, bootstrap and java. have already done 56 lessons.
Hi Arun. Thank you for supporting my efforts to address these current issues. I appreciate it. Yes, the homeless dig through trash cans here as well. It's one of the problems I heard about. If homeless camps are close to residential areas, some homeless people may go into private garbage cans, leaving residents anxious. You're also right that there are homeless living directly in the D.C. area. Congrats on leaning web development. Not an easy task!
Being homeless is psychology in my country. I'm from Ukraine by the way) Here, there are a night shelter for homeless, there is food support, and even program of rehabilitation to normal life. But what do they do? Simply refuse any help, except maybe access to shelter, when they can sleeep being drunk. I repeat- it's psychology, and it's hard to return to normal life for them with going to work, have responsibilities, etc. I like your advanced videos!!!
Yes, there are many contributing factors. I think we could likely categorize homeless people (just like we could any large population). Some truly need and want help. Others refuse, as you mentioned. But nevertheless they can't be ignored...especially in large numbers. I agree that the longer the problem persists, the harder it is to get people to transition. Glad you're open to discussing these difficult topics!
Great explanation 9:22. "And if the Law makes it more difficult to evict someone (meaning force them to leave because they Can't Pay), then Landlords will become increasingly more cautious and they'll choose to rent their properties only to people they feel confident can pay." Landlords engage in business with prospective Renters. If a Renter can no longer Pay to Rent, or if a Landlord can no longer Provide a habitable Rental space, then the mutual business relationship falls apart. Both partners in business (Renter and Landlord) would then honor their Rental Agreement to discontinue their business relationship and go their separate ways.
I try to see the situation from both points of view. People need a place to live, but property owners need to make money because they've invested their own money in the original purchase. There are also property taxes to pay. So renters need to consider a reasonable budget and not rent a property beyond their means. Landlords need to consider the market and pay attention to supply and demand. As business people, they also need to make ethical decisions. I know there are other factors to consider, like the job market, but at least this discussion is a starting point. Thanks for listening.
@@Englishwithjennifer You are absolutely right. Sometimes Landlords won't know the right Rental Cost for their local market, and when they realize that nobody is accepting their Rental unit because the price point is too high for a certain condition of a property in a certain location, the Law of Supply and Demand will help regulate and guide them in lowering their Rental Cost as nobody agrees to accept their high rent cost offer. Otherwise, Landlords are predictable and will naturally decide on a Rental Cost based on what prospective Renters in their local market are actually willing to pay and how long they can sustain the property without receiving any rental business revenue.
Hi Jennifer happy to see you again Homeless ness is a problem in all countries lacks more commitment from governments Thanks a lot for your support Have a great weekend you and your family 😉🇧🇷 HAPPY HALLOWEEN
Thank you for the good wishes. We had a happy Halloween mixed in with hockey practice late in the evening. I'm glad you and others have put some thought into this new topic. I agree that governments need to be committed to resolving homelessness. First, they need to be certain of a long-term plan.
According to me unemployment could be the major problem for the homeless and in addition to this influence of drugs to quench the anxiety of being homeless, this leads to mental problems. I hope some more elite privileged people should come forward with some effective measures to fix this up. Thank you very much to bring this lesson. It is highly informative
Thank you for contributing to the discussion. Yes, I could have highlighted unemployment more. But I also explained that some homeless people are actually employed; their wages are very low compared to the cost of living. Thanks again for watching.
Hi Jennifer. Homelessness a Catch-22. I've realized you often mentioned "funded", "how the money can be spent". With a rising population in the US and elsewhere the number of homeless going to rise. But is good to hear it that in the USA this is an open question, debate on how to help them. In many countries around the world we can't hear about it at all, it's a hidden agenda by politician. Unfortunately in my country, the homeless problem is also let fall out from daily news.
Good expression and appropriate for the situation: a Catch-22. We don't see an easy solution to this growing problem. More and more Americans can't ignore it because of the numbers and the presence of homeless people near businesses and close to residential areas. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
You are so cute and have an easy listening voice. You are very good at this job I really like and watch your video clips often Wish you good luck and success... Looking forward to meeting and interacting with you ...thank you so much 👍😍😘
Madam please let me know which of these two is a correct question! 1.have you told anything about the exam? 2.have you been told anything about the exam?
Active verb: (you) have told > You did the action. You spoke. You told. Passive verb: (you) have been told > You received the action. You heard. Someone told you. It depends on the situation. Both could be correct. If you're a student, #2 is more likely.
Answer 2: Homelessness is not a sin(wrong-doing). It is actually liberating. These are some of the most humble yet wise people you can come across. The natural ability of critical thinking and survival kick in. Intangible things are more valued then luxurious gains. Some people do fabricate a story by saying they are homeless, when in actuality... Those who are truly displaced or without a home, should be assisted with the knowledge of how to get back to self-sufficiency. Not thrown in prison. Law and order IS a necessity; but, remaining mindful of the weakness and vulnerability of humans is just as vital.
Thank you for contributing a well-thought-out answer. Indeed, we must remember that each homeless person is a human with a biography that is not made known to us. How they got there is not clear. In many situations, we're quick to judge.
Answer 6 1.Unemployment 2.Drug abuse 3. Mental illness 4.lack of affordable housing(some states arent as resourceful in this area. Virginia is the perfect example)
I'm not familiar with those videos, but I think I understand the concept. It's important to hear and understand people's stories. Thanks for listening to my talk.
Answer 4 The two MOST EFFECTIVE solutions would be, in my opinion, 'low-income housing and soup kitchens' I do NOT like to give homeless people money because i might be helping them feed a drug habit. Some people are uncomfortable in homeless shelters and would prefer to be in a home setting that is more private. Giving people food is very effective because people need to eat to survive. That is a must!! Low income housing helps keep the people in a mind of gratitude and they will be less likely of "screwing" up that opportunity
This is a very serious issue, which you've done well to bring to our attention. Homelessness is a serious problem worldwide. We hear about America's homeless problem more than other countries as America is always under the media's spotlight. The U.S.certainly needs more homes built with rent that people can afford. I like the idea of half-way houses to help people get back on their feet when displaced, etc. It is of course important that others don't judge or condemn people in half-way houses or shelters. As for strict rules for homeless shelters - We've got to have rules or we down with the animals. Remember that from Twitter? We have a much smaller population in the UK, so both countries can't really be compared. In the UK, if citizens of the country don't have a job or can't work, then the Government pays their rent. There are of course conditions: Unemployed people getting their rent paid for them must make a proper effort to find work and must be well-behaved to ensure they keep their accommodation. If tenants are unruly or become drug addicts then they could end up in a shelter or even on the street. So, homelessness does exist in the UK, but isn't the problem it is in other countries. Credit must be given to the charities who actively help the homeless worldwide. They do some sterling work. Hats off to them! In a nutshell though: Much more still needs to be done.
I'm glad you brought up charities. I should have mentioned charities and non-profits, but the video was already getting long! It's such a complex topic. There may be more than one solution to our problem, so the efforts of multiple sources may be required. I don't think the government alone can fix this. Communities have to pull together. The criminal justice systems needs to be examined further as well. I like the idea of having conditions that people must meet in order to receive government assistance, like you mentioned. The conditions shouldn't just be stated. It needs to be verified that people are truly meeting those conditions and not "working" the system. Accountability teaches responsibility. Sadly, there's some abuse of social services. I wish the services could go only to those who need it most.
@@Englishwithjennifer Yes, no one likes to hear of others milking the system. I am also a big fan of rent control and of government owned housing. Rip-off landlords are neither use nor ornament as rent must be affordable.
Nice topic ma'am I am touched Btw , thank u so much for replying ma'am Ma'am , can we say we use causative verb in any situation (whether it is forceful or not) but the work should be done by the other person For ex- 'He makes me laugh'(not a forceful one) Ex2- 'He makes me wash his clothes'( little foceful)
I read about a program in Canada where a group of families sponsors a refugee family. I found that interesting. Then that small group of families is invested financially and emotionally in the successful integration of that one refugee family. I wonder if this could be done for a certain population of homeless people who simply need a little help getting back on their feet, for example, a person living out of their car, but who has at least one job already. There are different possible solutions. Help needs to be given, and order needs to be restored on public streets and in public spaces. You can Google "tent cities" and then filter for "News" or "Images" and you'll find more information.
Answer 3 Every landlord needs to run their property, as well as their relation with each tenant on a case by case scenario You never know what people may be going through in their personal lives. Policies are created for a general setting and puts tenants in a box. There should be verbal warnings, fines, restrictions, and such before sending a tenant an eviction notice. Meet up with a tenant who may be 'disturbing' the community to see their reasoning. Give people chances. Even if they abuse the advances of kindness, they were at least given a far chance.
thank u for replying ma'am but i want to know 'Can we use would for a future situatuon which is possible but we are not sure it will happen or not ex-it would rain tomorrow.(it may or may not happen) Inshort, i want to know can i use would in place of may?? please answer please
Homelees May be negative meaning but you like People and supporter and volunter solve problems and gain positive New meaning and it is positive meaning🙏
amazing video ma'am ma'am, i have a question. Would u mind solving it. "can we use would for a future situation instead of will?? for ex- If it rains, the farmers would be happy.( instead of "if it rains , the farmers will be happy") please answer ma'am
Answer 5 Seeing homeless people on the street that my buisness is flourishing on, will tell by-passers what type of character my company have. I will have compassion on these people and work on how to help them get on their feet, if they want to do it in the first place. My concerns would be: The well being of the homeless. What exactly is causing the rise in more homelessness in my area? How can i help improve their livelihood? Will this effect my business in a negative way?
@@Englishwithjennifer 😂. I knew my correction would come to light soon. Let me return to your lessons on grammar 😎😂😂. On a serious note, I do respect the time and energy that you've put into your channel. The information is refreshing. Thank you 💙💙
Hi Jennifer. Homelessness is a big problem around the world and yes governments should focus on the reasons prompting this problem. I think the main reason is the lack of laws protecting people from being homeless. The person who earns the lowest salary according to a city's law should be provided with a home suitable to their wage, this must be a basic principle. I'm shocked because we all know that the US is the richest country on earth and it leads and controls the economic movement around the world. If this is the situation in the US what about other countries that have a weak economy and are full of corruption? Jennifer I wanna I ask you about the dvlottery. Is there a real chance to obtain the green card by entering the dvlottery?
Hi. Thanks for joining the conversation. Indeed, we must consider the need for housing that matches different levels of income. I hope effective solutions will be found. I don't know much about the dvlottery. I'd suggest reviewing the information on .gov website. Make sure you get accurate information. Best wishes!
Interesting Lesson ¡¡¡, I think that the big concentration of people in giant cities, the fear to intend to search a solution for the lack of housing because moneyowners should not invest in housing, the very low wages, the immigration because theres is lack of investments in the origin countries, the problem of drugs, alcohol, sex , and guns...... that's very very complex and the politicians I belive that don't really search solutions, sorry for this pesimistic speech but is the today's problem.
It's fine to be honest with your thoughts on a topic like this. You're right to target a long list of contributing factors. It's a very complex problem. I hope that some politicians will find the solutions for their states and cities. The situation is bad, but I believe it's fixable.
Most of homeless people are victims of : ¤ Inequality ¤ Cruelty ¤ Greediness ¤ Carelessness ¤ Selfishness ¤ Prostitution ¤ Irresponsibility ¤ Thefts ¤ Insanity ¤ Drugs ¤ alcohol ¤ Deception ¤ Illiteracy ¤ Lack of management ¤ Short future looking ¤ Jealousy ¤ Hatred ¤ Arrogance ¤ ¤ ¤ Mercilessness To my opinion this problem and others cannot be solved easily ..they need help ..; God's help 🌠🌠🌠
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Indeed, a lot of factors should be considered before we pass judgment and before we can find an effective solution.
Apologies for the typo at 5:36. "Committed" should have two m's.

The U.S.certainly needs more homes built with rent that people can afford. I like the idea of half-way houses to help people get back on their feet when displaced, etc. It is of course important that others don't judge or condemn people in half-way houses or shelters. As for strict rules for homeless shelters - We've got to have rules or we down with the animals. Remember that from Twitter?
We have a much smaller population in the UK, so both countries can't really be compared. In the UK, if citizens of the country don't have a job or can't work, then the Government pays their rent. There are of course conditions: Unemployed people getting their rent paid for them must make a proper effort to find work and must be well-behaved to ensure they keep their accommodation. If tenants are unruly or become drug addicts then they could end up in a shelter or even on the street. So, homelessness does exist in the UK, but isn't the problem it is in other countries.
Credit must be given to the charities who actively help the homeless worldwide. They do some sterling work. Hats off to them!
In a nutshell though: Much more still needs to be done.
I'm glad you brought up charities. I should have mentioned charities and non-profits, but the video was already getting long! It's such a complex topic. There may be more than one solution to our problem, so the efforts of multiple sources may be required. I don't think the government alone can fix this. Communities have to pull together. The criminal justice systems needs to be examined further as well. I like the idea of having conditions that people must meet in order to receive government assistance, like you mentioned. The conditions shouldn't just be stated. It needs to be verified that people are truly meeting those conditions and not "working" the system. Accountability teaches responsibility. Sadly, there's some abuse of social services. I wish the services could go only to those who need it most.
@@Englishwithjennifer Yes, no one likes to hear of others milking the system. I am also a big fan of rent control and of government owned housing. Rip-off landlords are neither use nor ornament as rent must be affordable.
Nice topic ma'am
I am touched
Btw , thank u so much for replying ma'am
Ma'am , can we say we use causative verb in any situation (whether it is forceful or not) but the work should be done by the other person
For ex- 'He makes me laugh'(not a forceful one)
Ex2- 'He makes me wash his clothes'( little foceful)
Yes. Causative verbs by nature refer to situations where there's a source that has an effect on another person or thing.
I can support one homeless American family in my home in Iran. Can you introduce it?
So far I don't see tent city.
I read about a program in Canada where a group of families sponsors a refugee family. I found that interesting. Then that small group of families is invested financially and emotionally in the successful integration of that one refugee family. I wonder if this could be done for a certain population of homeless people who simply need a little help getting back on their feet, for example, a person living out of their car, but who has at least one job already. There are different possible solutions. Help needs to be given, and order needs to be restored on public streets and in public spaces.
You can Google "tent cities" and then filter for "News" or "Images" and you'll find more information.
Answer 3
Every landlord needs to run their property, as well as their relation with each tenant on a case by case scenario
You never know what people may be going through in their personal lives. Policies are created for a general setting and puts tenants in a box.
There should be verbal warnings, fines, restrictions, and such before sending a tenant an eviction notice.
Meet up with a tenant who may be 'disturbing' the community to see their reasoning. Give people chances. Even if they abuse the advances of kindness, they were at least given a far chance.
thank u for replying ma'am

"can we use would for a future situation instead of will??
for ex- If it rains, the farmers would be happy.( instead of "if it rains , the farmers will be happy")
please answer ma'am
We can use "would" for hypothetical situations. When we imagine future possibilities, we can use will.
If it rained, the farmers would be happy.

Hello, I'm from bd
Answer 5
Seeing homeless people on the street that my buisness is flourishing on, will tell by-passers what type of character my company have.
I will have compassion on these people and work on how to help them get on their feet, if they want to do it in the first place.
My concerns would be:
The well being of the homeless.
What exactly is causing the rise in more homelessness in my area?
How can i help improve their livelihood?
Will this effect my business in a negative way?
You list important concerns and questions to consider.
(Small correction: have compassion FOR these people)
@@Englishwithjennifer 😂. I knew my correction would come to light soon.
Let me return to your lessons on grammar 😎😂😂.
On a serious note, I do respect the time and energy that you've put into your channel. The information is refreshing. Thank you 💙💙
Your vocabulary is wonderful. You articulate your ideas well overall. :)
Hi Jennifer. Homelessness is a big problem around the world and yes governments should focus on the reasons prompting this problem.
I think the main reason is the lack of laws protecting people from being homeless.
The person who earns the lowest salary according to a city's law should be provided with a home suitable to their wage, this must be a basic principle.
I'm shocked because we all know that the US is the richest country on earth and it leads and controls the economic movement around the world.
If this is the situation in the US what about other countries that have a weak economy and are full of corruption?
Jennifer I wanna I ask you about the dvlottery.
Is there a real chance to obtain the green card by entering the dvlottery?
Hi. Thanks for joining the conversation. Indeed, we must consider the need for housing that matches different levels of income. I hope effective solutions will be found.
I don't know much about the dvlottery. I'd suggest reviewing the information on .gov website. Make sure you get accurate information. Best wishes!
Interesting Lesson ¡¡¡, I think that the big concentration of people in giant cities, the fear to intend to search a solution for the lack of housing because moneyowners should not invest in housing, the very low wages, the immigration because theres is lack of investments in the origin countries, the problem of drugs, alcohol, sex , and guns...... that's very very complex and the politicians I belive that don't really search solutions, sorry for this pesimistic speech but is the today's problem.
It's fine to be honest with your thoughts on a topic like this. You're right to target a long list of contributing factors. It's a very complex problem. I hope that some politicians will find the solutions for their states and cities. The situation is bad, but I believe it's fixable.

To my opinion this problem and others cannot be solved easily ..they need help ..; God's help 🌠🌠🌠
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Indeed, a lot of factors should be considered before we pass judgment and before we can find an effective solution.
