Nearly 200 million children will lose their homes as the economic crisis continues to burden the country. Director for the Partnership for America's Economic Success Sarah Watson says adults are not the only ones affected by the economy. Watson says some children will go to foster homes since their parents cannot afford living. The Partnership for America's Economic Success has statistics on living situtuations for families. Watson says tax payers will pay short and long term effects for children not living in safe and comfortable environments. Parents having to pay for other survival items impacts the quality of the homes they can afford. Watson says parents are under stress trying to afford decent living arrangements for their children. Parents working two jobs to pay for housing do not get to spend a lot of time with their children. Watson says children's living situations will affect their future success.
