Sadly you have found out what professionals in all agencies, Social Services,
Police, Salvation Army, Local Goverment, NHS etc etc learn early on.
These individuals have complex issues.
It may be Mental Health, a difficult chaotic childhood, Alcohol addiction, Drug abuse
( both precription and illegal) and many others.
You did your best, you did not fall into the trap of giving money for food, often converted
into cheap alcohol or a £10 bag of heroin.
You gave time, sustenance, shelter and conversation.
It is hard to seen what else you could have done.
Have a good Christmas.
