This is my son, Fernando. He has trouble speaking. Here he’s playing on the sidewalk next to our house. My kids are afraid to go to the park, because there are stray dogs there. And people smoking weed.

As I take a look as to what is being built in Washington, DC, the first thing that comes to mind is non-affordable homes, condos or apartments for single working mothers. These apartments are gorgeous, but I don’t get wrapped up in that thought. I enjoy the scene but understand that I cannot afford that home for my daughter and I at the time.

He was asking the case worker for something to eat. I don’t have child care, so I have to take him to my appointments. If he was in day care I wouldn’t have to have lugged him early in the morning to an appointment to the welfare office to try to get food stamps and medical coverage. I can’t help it if my baby’s hungry. I was thinking ‘I’m not going to lie to you miss, he’s hungry.'

That’s the deep freezer now. It’s empty. It’s just those two items in that one little box. How is this supposed to feed a family of six?

8 years on this air mattress. How much longer? This is my living room and my bedroom.

Christina and her boyfriend live in a house given to them by his parents, but the house has serious structural problems from being rented out previously that they cannot afford to fix.

I have a job and I’m barely making it, so imagine how many people walking around hungry, with a smile, trying to fake it.
