I don't mean to sound mean but, the woman that said that they might take and be able to scrape up a few dollars to get 2 kids meals off of the dollar menu from Mcdonalds and then substitute the rest with beans. Instead of getting something off the dollar menu from Mcdonalds why not take that few dollars and get some can food or rice or something that will last longer then take out.
Yeah I was thinking that.
If I have 2 dollars I will go to dollar tree.
Get some beans and rice. That's my dinner
Agreed!
Thank you for this documentary, I grew up in the 70's and 80's I was always hungry, it was hard to concentrate when you are hungry. I now make sure that I have plenty of food and so do my grown kids .
People should start hunting & growing gardens again. Back then people were broke but not hungry.
Container gardening for veggies and herbs.
Hunt in an urban area?
@@mindyschocolate haven't you heard of urban foxes? (Sarcasm)
Youre right
Why doesn’t the first family apply food stamps ? Also mom needs to find a part time job and work a shift opposite from dad so they have no childcare cost
Some tips i have learned over the years being on a low income myself, It is possible to eat well on a low income but you have to know how to budget and what foods to get that are healthy and cheap. Lentils, dried beans, chick peas and peanut butter are cheap sources of protien, dried legumes take longer to prepare but are well worrth it, frozen vegetables and tin vegetables are much cheaper than fresh and have a much longer shelf life. If you are worried about the salt content in tin vegetables, pour them into a colender and rinse them off in cool water, it does not remove all the salt but it does remove about 70% of it. Tinned fish like tuna, sardines, herrings are cheap, and are a good source of protien, calicum and vitamin d, plus omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Rice, pasta and oatmeal are cheap carbs, there are also some cheap veg, poataoes, carrots, onions for example. Buying flour and making your own bread is much cheaper in the long run than buying several loaves, i make my own flat breads and you do not need yeast, just flour, water and bit of butter or oil. You can also use it to make your own dumplings, perogies, biscuts, whatever suits your fancy. Supermarkets are good at using tricks to encourage people to buy the more expensive items, for example, they will put the more expensive brands at eye level so those are the first items you see, they put the cheaper brands of the same product on the lower shelves. Store brands are just as good and much cheaper, so insrtead of picking up that can of heinz baked beans, look on the shelves below it, all your paying for basically is the brand, not the product. Recipes from the great depression, and WWII when food was scarce and peopole had to make do with what they had are marvelous inspirations and the majority of the food they used is still very cheap today. If you can get some fruit, apples are one of the best choices because they have a longer shelf life then most and are very versatile, you can bake them, put them in bread, make applesauce with them, all kinds of things.
Rice, pasta, and potatoes are called poor people's food for a reason . It is because it is a filler when you don't have much else.

Very well put
Wooow so sad my mom taught us to gt a deep freezer fill it to the rim and the same with the fridge and cabinets as a mother i did this i never wanted my kids to lack i always fed the kids in my neightborhood my kids alwsys say mom they have no food id say well we have to feed them amen we as parents must feed the children who lack food its the right thing to do
Can't afford a deep freezer
Still have to buy a deep freezer and "fill it to the rim"
Cinnamon toast, eat your dinner. That's heartbreaking. Some restaurants here throw out food at the end of the day, and sadly some pour ammonia over the food they put in the dumpster to prevent dumpster diving. That is just heartless and cruel to people who could have found enough to eat.
Amanda Haldeman I work at a convenient store and we have to throw out food that people ask me for if I have money i will usually buy it but I can't give it away because the store gets reimbursed for the food it breaks my heart
they don't want to get sued if ppl get sick from eating out of their dumpster so they have no choice.
That s an awful nice damn house for ppl who eat cinnamon toast.
Amanda Haldeman
That is true I worked for KFC in high school and the GM would pour bleach in the trash to prevent the homeless going through it. God is going to have his day and people will pay!
did anyone notice when they're eating cinnamon toast I thought that was a snack until I heard their mom say eat your dinner I couldn't imagine not having food to feed my kids it makes you think and be grateful for what you have in a way this is heartbreaking but in another way other children should watch this it would teach them to appreciate what they have and don't take it for granted
Yes I feel bad for the kids.
:(
Working on doing our part in our communities too. Thanks to all those fighting as well. We are in this together, always have been and will be!
I'm glad in my city. Our stores donate food which is almost expired or package of clothes that has been opened to a local shelter. I know because I actually offer of drop off for them. Their manager was kind to give it the shelters every week. Sam's Club gave a lot and every week. I can't be happier.
It is not only not finding work for some of us it is poor health , i can not work full time anymore , my husband is disabled and I am am too but have not gotten approved for disability so i have no choice but to work part time .there are many reason why people fall into this kind of predicament!!!! Making bread at home just cost pennies to make , we need to STOP buying convenience foods and make things from scratch like our grand parents use to do !!!!!!!!
Groceries
Eggs, oatmeal, cheese, milk, coffee, rice, beans, frozen/canned veggies/fruits, butter/oil, chicken thighs, sugar, salt/spices. Drink water, milk/coffee. Don't spend on snacks, soda, eating out.
I agree with you. Some of these people do not know how to prepare meals that stretch. Buy flour, make biscuits. They need to learn how to survive like people did back in the day.
Oh wow, if only someone had thought about this before you, it would solve their problem! Where have you been?! The world needs you!
Yes amen
It is 5 years after this video was made. Things are still not much better, ugh.
2023 speaking, unbelievable we would look back fondly on this time
My family of 6 eats just fine on $120 per week. We cook all our food. Staple crops provide us with cheap but healthy calories. Beans, wheat, rice, small amounts of meat provide affordable calories. Supplement with a multivitamin. I rarely get sick and I don't eat a bunch of high priced produce. I simply supplement with a multivitamin for $.05 / day.
I forgot to mention whole milk is also a staple at roughly $1 / 1000 calories.
Five kids??? No wonder they're broke! All the poorest people in my town have the most kids. Why??? Those children suffer. It's so sad. In the past my family has had financial issues. We definitely would've qualified for food stamps. But my parents are smart shoppers and we always had plenty to eat. We rarely ate out. We ate tons of vegetables, rice, and beans. I still do because it's what I like.
six*impossible*things yes five kids, and they said they were making $4k two years ago. Look at how old the kids are, plus pregnancy. They didn’t pop those kids out after they lost their wages.
Tragic.......Absolutely TRAGIC......THEY ARE CHILDREN FOR HEAVENS SAKE......
Can I suggest the importance of stocking up on food when you have extra money. If you have an extra $10, stock up on a sack of beans, following week you have $5, buy some canned items. You're stock pile will grow. And when life throws a curve ball, bust into your storage pantry till. money becomes available again.
I remember sitting in class trying to study or taking a test but I was hungry and my stomach was growling and my family we usually only ate one meal a day truth

I am from Europe and I am just shocked to see the situation in America! Growing up, I was always told that America is a dream land, a place nicer than any other, a place of rich people, richer than anywhere else, a place where your dreams come true. But gradually, I started seeing the real face of the U.S.A. It is much poorer than I thought. And much more dangerous than I thought. Thank God I don´t live there. Thank God that I live in our small country in the middle of Europe where there are no shootings at schools or churches or on the streets. Where we have just 2% of unemployment! The lowest rate of all countries in Europe. Where hunger is an unknown word. If you can´t work for some reason, you can ask for benefits and the government will pay you money each month. Not enough for luxury holidays abroad. But enough to buy food for your entire family for the entire month. And if you don´t have enough money to pay rent, the government can give you special benefits to support you so that you can pay the rent and you don´t get kicked out on the street. And if you have kids and you have no money for their school lunch, you can apply for free school lunches for all your kids and they will get fed every day. (Luch is the main meal of the day here. It consists of a soup and a warm dish like meat with some sauce and potatoes, rice and so on. Plus some fruit or dessert and a beverage. It is the same meal that Americans eat for dinner - the same type of food. But we don´t eat warm dishes for our evening meals, as it is hard to digest before bed. We eat it at noon). So I really am glad that I live in the Czech Republic, not in the "developed" U.S.A. that is not too developed at all. For 40 years, our country was under the Communist regime and when we finally got rid of it in 1989, we realized we were 40 years behind the developed western countries including the U.S.A. But now I think that our situation is not that bad at all. I really feel that the U.S. is way behind Europe... It is a country with 10 million hungry children and with millions of homeless people and people living in motels, trailers and even cars! OMG...
As a teacher who teaches in a tittle one school, its upsetting to see my kids hungry. I know that it may not help them, but I keep snack bars fresh fruit and canned food that they can take home everyday to eat if my kids don't have food at home
God bless you. How many students are starving like that in the school?
What? Why wouldn't that help?
When I use to work in education, I would give the kids food and snacks too. I even reward them with cookies and chips. They were so happy. My sister in law who is still a teacher shares her food too. It's ashamed that this happens in America. I donate food to the homeless every week even when my business was was down due to covid for 2 years. I still do... Too bad we got to many cities and States. I'm actually hauling some blessing or goody bags to Texas and Mississippi nearby States for the summer. My family of 3 is small. I wish more people would share. Im Glad my parents and siblings donate and help others as well. I'm glad you help your students out. Thanks for your generosity.
I dread to think what's happening to domestic animals with people never having got their cat or dog fixed. That is heartbreaking too. More and more poor unwanted animals with no food (and probably no water). Cats cannot just catch mice and other animals need food too. Of course it's so darn sad the kids have to go to bed hungry. I often wonder what these so called 'movie stars' who make millions a picture are doing with all the money.
Genie Meadows the APTS where granddaughter daughter and me live. There are some stray cats that were left. And I fed them and got threatened with eviction. It's so hard on my Soul. So at night when nobody sees I walk to the garbage dumpsters and put out food and left overs. I just can't see them starving
@Marjory Rainey. Well in scripture God tells us to care for animals so He is watching what you are doing to help his creatures and bless you so much for that Marjory.
Genie Meadows thank you! I've always had an eye on cats and dogs that are homeless since I was a girl.
Some People Think They're So Hard With Their Petty Comments. Keyboard Warriors! Sit Here Cussing People On A Video, You Got Not Idea How They Feel! Disgusting Get Respect!
Beans and rice is all you need and it's dirt cheap.
soldier person You eat Beans and Rice day in and Day out.....you wouldnt last a week....your a jerk.....
Mary Thompson wrong. When you are hungry, it sure does work. I ate beans and rice for four months straight!!!!
My favorite dish is rice & beans! Delicious!!! 💞💞💞💞
The sad part is nobody really does anything about it. Kids still go hungry every day in America. Really want to go buy a bunch of food and donate it as soon as I can go to the store next. Then maybe one family won't go hungry one night.
WE CAN NOT RELY on others I feel the government they do not care about us as long as we vote for them !!! lets have a garden lets make cheap meals that are good for and fill the belly .I can feed four people with one chicken leg by making chicken soup with left over veggies ect .A garden can be made out of the smallest areas use pots to plant you do not need much room .Make your own soups they are more nutritious it is very filling some home made bread .One dish meals go a long ways left overs taste so good .Brown bagging left overs is what I do .Love Peanut butter is got protein it is good for you fill the stomach ect.
This is why you don’t have too many kids, you can have it all one day and it can be gone the next. I have two and don’t want anymore but if I did I would have more because of this. People really don’t think ahead
It’s soon 2019 and still, things haven’t changed. Sure, we may have more places to go for food and more people helping..but now we have more kids, more families that need the help compared to when this video came out.
Yes, I’m one who believes we should help everyone around the world who struggles this way...but I think we should start with The United States first, then down the line.
I see so many kids and families struggle..it just pulls at my heart strings big time! I wish I could help everyone!! I now though worry about my own family! My kids are doing well for themselves, it’s my husband and I that I worry about. This could very well be us!! My husband is diabetic, if something was to happen to him, I would be I a world of hurt! I have lots of things to pray about...WORLD hunger is one of them.

How you doing now
Now it is 2021 covied make this so much worse the middle class is gone

Milk and bread
@@ghg76vhfyg11 I agree. Now I don’t know if your response was as a smart remark or not, no kindness shown…I could be wrong. It’s not just food I should have said, so much more people are struggling with. What most fail to admit is it’s the poor, the people who live paycheck to paycheck that make this world go round.
Now what is sad is we have people from other countries working jobs our own people won’t do. We also have people who refuse to go back to work now and use Covid as an excuse thinking their government money will keep common on in..(over) The people of US need to wake up and shake the cobwebs off and get to work! Now, it’s not myself I worry about anymore, it’s my children’s children. What’s going to happen 10 yrs from now that everything is changing! I’m thankful my kids are well educated and have very good secure jobs. I help whoever and when I can, I feel good about this…but for example I do see the elders being pushed away, or expected at the age of 70 plus to understand technology, their life’s has over night done a complete 360..they are confused and can’t get help. I was at the electric company the other day paying a bill, a line of elderly people were there asking for help because they don’t have computers to pay their bills nor do they understand how to use them. You know what they were told. The library has computers, go there and use them. Most of them don’t even drive, couldn’t get there anyway. Again, even though they still have never seen a computer, I saw a woman and her husband, they had to be close to 90..The wife was in tears she was so confused. The husband said it’s a shame nobody will help them. The young lady at the desk rolled her eyes. God will have her answer to this! So, you are listening to me vent, my apologies. If this offends you,..any of you, have compassion. I think having compassion myself is great but it too is a strong flaw…My mother once told me and does still, I take care of the underdog. I take care of the bird the breaks it’s wing :( Or I would bring in snakes my mother told me and wrap them around the steering wheel…I thought they would come back to life. Lol Anyway, that’s my 2 cents.
Take care~
Brought to you by ConAgra? Well... that's why there isn't a lot of money for food. Farm subsidies to grow useless crops, like too much corn, and very little going to actual food. We can sit here and argue about parental responsibility all day long, but when our charity dollars go to big food and not individuals, we have a problem.
Corn is food. Just not healthy when converted to high fructose corn syrup. Native Americans subsisted just fine on corn and beans. Corn is a staple crop in America just like wheat is a staple crop in the rest of the world.
And the corn grow is mostly dent corn. Sweet corn is a hybrid of dent corn. The American Indians did not eat sweet corn. They ground dent corn into flour and made mash out of it.
Anything picked by hand will cost a tremendous amount of money compared to anything picked with a machine. Wheat, beans, corn, oats, and rice provide us with the basic caloric needs. The vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients come from seasonal vegetables and supplements. My family of 6 eats smart and cheap. We keep our food at $1.50 / 1,000 calories. When we shop that is how we know what to buy. I don't buy it if it cost more than $2 / 1,000 calories except for special occasions.
On my middle class income I will never buy a house. Because I never know when my boss will let me go or if the company goes out of business. I can not dependent on it. This story is sad 😢. I Thank GOD I can feed my kids. I have seen many employees let go under dumb reasons and lost their house. We must save save save and invest.
They live in Grandmother's basement and she allows her grand children go hungry!!! What kind of grandma doesn't help feed her daughter's family? He's unemplyoed he should qualify for welfare and SNAP.
Yeah, their grandmother is cruel and heartless
He need to out his foot down or go get snap
Quick to judge are we? Maybe grandmother lives on social security. She has expenses like paying the mortgage & medications! What about that? At the end of the day poor grandmother may have nothing left over . At least grandmother provides a roof over their head...
Some restaurants, at the end of they day they'll give you food for free from that day instead of throwing it out. Farmers markets fruit and veggie sells for cents a pound. (:
So many new laws prohibit restaurants in many areas from donating food. It's such a waste! I live near a local Ronald McDonald house and used to love making a big batch of comfort foods for the parents and kids staying there. It always put a smile on their faces & mine. It's no longer allowed. If you can afford to have it catered, it's fine, but your homemade meatloaf and mashed potato or lasagna dinners are now banned. Make sense? It was so good to see families in turmoil and pain, sit down for a hot, homemade meal. We need to use common sense.
Wow. Sad how we literally aren't allowed to help our own!
Yes, Ironic that these dumb laws got made at the worst possible time for the poor.
Farmers markets tend to be much more expensive than buying produce at a grocery store
volz519 not an Asian farmers market. I live in GA, our Asian farmers market, such as Assi or Gwinnett Farmers are much cheaper than Walmart or Whole Foods.
Now im reading people comments. Its not that simple in this world. You got Donald Trump as a President who is cutting down food stamps.Then you got people who got all these children. And they don't want to work. Its alot of help out here. Some people cant get full time job. In this world we living in. I just feel sorry for people and myself its hard in this world.
When the minimum wage matches the cost of living in 2018, then our families wont starve!
Jen Torres thank u
When people get a skill, then they won’t starve. Stop depending on the government.
@@GuestUA-camUser if everything was that easy, then no one would be homeless in America, there would be no poor people, things aren't that easy, and prices for things like technical schools and even for just being alive are skyrocketing in recent years
A living wage will have to depend on local factors. It will not work in the USA.
I like how a multi millionaire hosts this program.
I want to watch this but not enough to sit through even 11 mins of that insufferable Al Roker.
My children will never know hunger. I will work 7 days a week if I have to.
John Dyer what if you loose your job. The question is can you save
@@illinoishasenteredthechat950, you find another job. Plenty of demand for truck drivers. You can live in the truck rent free. Plus you work a lot of hrs. Hard life but you ciuld possibly save a lot of money.
This is America! why would we let our people OUR PEOPLE go without food?
timm55 Where do you think the Government money comes from? It comes from the wealthy citizens! The government just takes it from them, then distributes back to the poor! That’s not fair. If I make $1M. The government takes $370K! Tax money should be used for infrastructure and security. Not lazy people. People need to stop having children and putting a burden on society.
OUR people have been going without forever. You only care now cause you think "bad hombres" are stealing food stamps and public housing 🙄
Because apparently a $25 billion wall is more important.
We have to be as parents more educated on how to feed our children some people just didn't care beans is a very good meal four children and you add maybe some bread or some sort of vegetables but once you make those beans you can make it with tomato sauce you can make chili out of the beans and it be something that last for 2 days and you'll have a full plate of food for your children you can have ground beef with it you can have either turkey ground turkey drop ground chicken and you buy noodles noodles is another meal that you can sort of make maybe spaghetti and and meat sauce not meatballs but meat sauce you cannot make macaroni and cheese and have a salad with it because cheese is protein you can cut some of the fat out because cheese have fat in it so there's a whole lot of things we can do but we have to be educated a lot of people by what they like not what will make a good meal I used to have just plain grits and eggs or cheese grits and eggs and if I had frankfurters or sausage something that was you know meat that's what they would have so there's all different kinds of combinations you can make your own pizza would you buy mozzarella cheese or cheese of your choice you can buy Pitta bread and you can put sauce on it if you have sauce left from the spaghetti and then you can put your your choice of vegetables on your pita pita bread you put it in the oven and each child could have they own custom made pizza there's a whole lot of things that people can do what they don't understand what doesn't sound appetizing but I fed my kids and when we had a little extra money then I would buy order a pizza and a soda and that was a tree it was a treat and we would get together and find out what each one wanted the majority wants whether it was a pizza or the Chinese food but we had treats so find out what is a trait find out how to make cookies if your home you have the time make them I even used to make some cookies from the people that gave me a surplus food and I give it to give them some cookies and they said this is what you may from the surplus food they had no idea they gave me the butter because they wanted margarine we have to be as parents more educated on how to feed our children some people just didn't care beans is a very good meal for children and your ad maybe some bread off the some sort of vegetables but once you make those beans you can make it with tomato
Healthcare is not a right. Food should be. If anything is going to be free, it should be good
What about our elderly. Would like to see show on that thank you
where are they today 2019
So many people dismiss things that they don’t want to acknowledge. Poverty is real with real consequences.
Its terrible that families are in this position but why is she taking her teenage son with her to a food pantry if she doesn't want him to know?
Not having the food and not having the money to buy food is one thing, Another part is people that don’t know how to stretch a dollar, two things at a dollar menu at McDonald’s can feed the whole family with good food choices,, providing they have a grocery store to go to. There is no reason why those profit rich grocers ( Walmart comes to mind ) to sacrifice and put and out stores on food deserts too. I saw a lady on welfare with 2500.00 for five kids, one of which was too young to eat real food spend 200.00 on sugar water and individual sugar loaded fruit cups. Education helps too.
my God bless you all , greetings from Tanzania,East Africa. eeeeemen.
living in the parents basement and they can't afford somthing better then toast for dinner?? I find that hard to believe.
I was thinking the same thing.
Yes i agree.
You think it was for show
Know the situation before you judged. They live in Grandma's basement. At least it is shelter. However, grandma might be low income herself having to pay her own mortgage. Maybe she has to buy medication. We don't know. Then, grandma might not have enough to feed 5 grandkids & 2 additional adults besides herself
Now we are in a full blown PANDEMIC and people are STILL starving but now they are homeless as well.. things got progressively worse
I still don’t understand why people keep having CHILDREN when they see that the economy is bad.
Why bring so many kids into a world that has so much uncertainty, so many problems with jobs, economy, and in a Country that is not securing the well being of it’s citizens.
Analyze your situation before you have children and please DO NOT have more than two kids because you can NEVER know what the future is going to bring into your life.
I agree
@@mothermim391 I thought you had to have more than one kid to have that done I was told. I have one kid she's 9.

I suffer from hyperemesis gravidarum
I just watched this over again, the first couple in this vid were making $4-5000 before the economy went bad, nobody knows what the future will bring
Hope they get help with getting food
every Millionaire AND UP should be totally ashamed of themselves for contributing to America's hungry kids DEEPLY ASHAMED!!
cinnamon toast and a glass of milk are a nice snack but that is not a dinner. Hungry little tummies at bedtime. Where is grandma? Even if they get SNAP, that's "supplemental" - it's not going to completely feed the family.
I can't believe this is happening in the land of good and plenty
And for the poster who told them to use birth control? That is not the issue. And it was very rude to say.
If you cant afford them why put them in this struggle, dont have the babies!
Then what do we do, let illegal immigrants roll in and take care of these individuals. But can't help the American Citizens. What a mess
Yes. We feed millions of illegals. That’s fucking bullshit. We have our own to take care of.
Being hungrey as a kid I know what it's like have nothing remember eating major mustard bre a d dad be out drunk all night seven kids at home hungrey my mother won't ask for help lend money from neighbor or call church she sit and rock in rocking chair our stomach would hurt I am sixty two will never forget that I always have to have food I shop dollar tree discount grocery store aldis whatever I have to do I stock up when I can if I go PA I don't drive hubby drives me p a amish run store h r drive I live it if I spend hundred it cost three hundre d here maryland when I was young I called churches led money whatever I had to do so my kids eat me hubby had times it was hard I went to church when I was in twenties that church helped us five years with food thanksgiving christmas helped us a lot as I got older I helped anyone I can or could I try donate for food because I know what it feels like being hungrey in school I couldn't concentrate in school bec a use all I thought about was my free lunch free snack it kept us seven kids from starving and if u got all seven of us in a room we all say we were always hungrey it's awful feeling I remember my stomach hurting it's not fun and when u r kid u don't ask be born in poverty
YEARS LATER IN 2020....NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!!!!🤢🤢😤😭😭
The supermarkets throw out good food go dumpster diving. U won’t go hungry
I used to work at a store and ppl used to do this so out managers had us open the food and dump it then pour bleach on it so ppl wouldn't do that, trying to avoid lawsuits
Eats chicken pot pie... goes on computer, searches child hunger,..... " O_O.. YOU LIED TO ME"
So much food that is wasted in the USA trust me I work in fast food,restaurant they throw away bags of food everyday it makes no sense know one she go hungry in the usa
The mom can't get her kid a salad? Lettuce is only around .88 cents, a cucumber and a couple of tomatoes even less, plus a homemade oil and vinegar salad dressing. Honestly, I think people live beyond their means so that when hard times hit, they are in debt up to their eyeballs, and two, people do not know how to manage money properly. You can also grow your own stuff seasonally.
With all due respects lettuce does not cost $0.99 it can cost up to $2 not to mention Tomatoes almost a dollar 99 a pound if not a dollar to $2 a pound local store and look how much produce cost bananas are $0.69 a pound they can run up to almost $2 Unity go to Grocery Outlet or a discount grocery store produce is one of the most expensive things out there why do you think a lot of food banks try to ask you to donate stuff like that so it's not as simple as just getting a head of lettuce and vinegar the symbol vinegar custom to $2 not to mention oil depending on what you get can get up to $5 have you been shopping at a local store lately
I donate to an organization that feeds the poor
It breaks my heart to understand that there will be some families sitting down at dinner, holding hands and THANKING GOD! It was not God that put food on their table, it was caring, unselfish people who donated their time and money
What scares me is that these same people will go to church and abuse me and my loved ones to hell!
The world is so intertwined now - a lot of people have jobs because of customers in China, an atheist country
The war has disrupted food supplies, Ukraine was the bread basket - many Islamic countries might starve, but they will go to their graves hurling abuses at unbelievers!
Only religion can turn good people into soulless Nazis!
Globalization of jobs has really hurt American families. Then cost of living mixed with stagnant wages results in hungry children.
Go look in your children's classrooms..
That's why you need to be married before you begin having kids, sex is great, but only with a man who is responsible, it's the woman's fault for not having boundaries, n her child suffers, it's the woman's responsibility to check out the man first, think w your head, not your heart, nor lust
The covid-19 has made it worse along with the omnicron God only knows what's next a depression is already here from what I'm seeing but I thank God we have a roof over our head food and clothing and were able to pair utilities I pray for this family and all those who are struggling did they get a basic income so they don't have to worry
This is absolutely nothing new this has been going on for decades why the big change
Other people cannot afford to pay you which is why this is happening to you but if we had a basic income to cover shelter food clothing utilities and necessities then perhaps you wouldn't be going through this there's also Head start for your children if they're young enough
I'm English and here salad and vegetables are cheaper than pizza and junk food I could easily feed my 4 children and myself a healthy dinner for 6 pounds?
its 2019- 8 years later.... is it still 10 million? or has it gone up?
You will never stop kids from getting hungry.
Did anyone notice what the walked out of that food bank with? Not bags of dried beans and rice....Gatorade and other high priced canned food items. Canned beans are way more expensive than dried beans. Learn to cook your beans from dried beans, and america could afford to eat. We pay a pretty penny for convenience. Educating our population is the key.
Noah Beach. Some people might not have the ability to cook. So the canned beans can be eaten without heating up.
Carmen Wheatley cooking with a walmart propane stove is cheaper than buying canned beans. I do a lot of camping and I cook with fire and a pot over that. We have a solo stove. Its awesome and runs off twigs
True for some of us. But those could be dangerous if you have small children around.
You have to understand. Sometimes you have to take what is given to you at a food bank. It is not filet mignon & lobster, but it is food. Better than going to bed hungry!
It isn't just a child it's the parent or parents who also need food so that they can labor
We need basic income the cover shelter food clothing utilities thank you
Year 2021.... we’re in a pandemic COVID-19 and no food
America is lucky they have meal ticket,and their government is helping the middle class and the poor homeless family unlike the Philippines they can't do that because they will corrupt it
5 kids? That's why your struggling...4:52
We need to teach them to deal with the pollution problem if they don't deal with that now there's going to be a real issue in the future with polluted water polluted Earth polluted everywhere
I love shepherdy ravioli and it's very inexpensive you can feed a child ravioli and green beans
2021 and its not over ... more and more homeless. so sad.
What about adults parents grandparents aunts uncles they're hungry too

visit the food banks and remember it is not for ever
If you can afford it hot dogs and beans is pretty good my mom did that
Don't make Andrew go to the food pantry.
Heartbreaking it's the same in England it is so wrong the world is going backwards
Some tips. If you have a car and can make use of public transport do so. Bc insurance and gas is expensive. My area offers rides $1 there $1 back. Getting rid of rat insurance payment could help. I know this isn't a possibility for everyone but for some it could be a help. I am below the poverty line and I heard the mom talking about buying off the $1 menu. I would buy rice and dry beans with that money. 😋
what's happening in America? It's the richest country in the world. isn't it? Here in Japan we have poverty, but never heard that somebody is hungry.Even if you are poor, we have enough to eat unless you look for expensive food.
All schools should have free breakfast lunch snack n bag dinner to take home we are a riche country n I pay to much in taxes for kids to be going hungry
it's not the kids fault u want to end the problem free breakfast lunch at schools at set up a program where kids can come eat study and eat every day set it up for every child and after schools programs for kids to get tutoring and go eat super to every day
Stop having children!
I thought America was dying of obesity lol
first of all quit breeding that ends hunger stock up on beans rice. it's sad to see these parents over weight kids underweight u shouldn't be allowed to get foodstamps quit having kids
We’ve always had a working class poor who doesn’t qualify for assistance 🤦♀️
Sad to see kids suffering like that. Poverty is no way to grow up.
No jobs. No food. Running vehicle. Wtf
Where are the priorities!
I think parents should show receipts for were stamps and money goes...
Thankful my mom had food stamps and I was able to get free lunch at school
Watching poor people helps me understand that im better off than i think
It is selling our crops for other countries for me
I know there's something the parents can do to get money.
Why poor people have the most children
Why have 5 children ....it,s crazy
1 in 6 kids still live in food insecurity
I wish for once, trump felt hunger
