Does camping hurt homeless people?

Some people don’t want to be helped. It may be hard to understand, but they really prefer being homeless. Tent cities are great for them, and they can pick up and move when they want to.

I suppose it is similar to living the life of a gypsy or running away to join a travelling circus.

Or being mentally ill to a degree that you can’t manage a steady environment.

I’m lucky; I can’t go out much, but I’m relatively okay when I keep to myself. But it wouldn’t take a lot to flip things to the point where I was in permanent flight mode.
