[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1377427, member: 20599"] My experience is that when you find people living in utter squalor, there is just about always a mental health issue and/or barely functional IQ level. There are a goodly number of people in our area who function just above what is considered "retarded" (or whatever the current term is; I don't mean this in a pejorative way). It continues down through each generation. There are often speech deficits in these families as well. I consider these poor folks to be a different matter than those are just shiftless. We have a "compound" down the road that I can't figure out which category they fall into. But it's like a third world country... [/QUOTE]
