"At first it is not so bad...
...the freedom, that's the way you see it.
Then the other things start happening."


The consequences of freedom...

"You tell yourself,
I live on the street,
this is what happens,
bad things too...
can't let IT get you down?"


The consequences of freedom...

Free...

To be or not to be...

beaten
*****
ripped-off
arrested

humiliated
tortured
­manipulated
hunted

abused
sad


To Be or Not to Be...

That is  

'A'

question
                      -for a Street Kid?
Have you lived on the street?
