When most people think of home the idea of a house comes up,but in the Migrant Mother by Dorothea Lange is a tent like thing. What would you do if all you had was a tent to live in and not a house?
During the Great Depression many people were homeless. But truly being homeless is impossible, when you are with the people who care about you. In my opinion there were probably more "homes" during the Great Depression, because there was not as many material possessions to get in the way of family and friends. What do you consider a home?
The fact that people did not have money or houses would be bad. The children most likely did not act up as much as they do now.The migrant mother had to sell almost all she had in order to have a semblance of getting buy. How would you like to have to lose almost all you have?
