When your family dosen't have any money and lives a horrible existence. It's really not anything to joke about.

Poverty is when your family is lazy and live in section 8 housing units and get state government checks just to get by.

Poverty is when you get made fun of for not wearing anything clean or nice to school and being known as one of "poorest kids at school" and laughed at.

Poverty is when no one likes you at school because of it.

Poverty is when your mom keeps having baby after baby just to get her welfare check to support her habit.

Poverty is when your mom gives you up and no one likes you and you wonder if you'll end up the same as her.
Poverty is a hellish existence and I live it.
