All-the-way House Children of the Night

In the article All-the-way House, it tells us about homeless teens, that have turned to prostitution to survive. The young prostitutes are victims past the prostitution; they most likely came from poverty stricken, broken family homes, with little or no guidance and may be victims of child abuse.

The founder of the half way house COTN (Children of the Night) home, Lois Lee is a strong, business-type, unsentimental woman, as the writer describes and I think that's just what these teens need. It is very admirable what Lee had made of her life. Dedicating one's life to troubled teens is far from what most anyone would choose to do as a career.

The writer stye brings out this topic in a lighter side, meaning, she's writing about the girls and boys who need COTN, and personalizes the article a bit by telling a couple of stories, but by mentioning the support of charities and funding....
