How do you keep warm and even safe if you had to live on the streers with your baby?

I can no longer live where I am, and staying at a motel is not an option, as I can't afford to pay $100 a night! which is the cheapest for the motel locally, every other motel prices start from $150 a night.

I don't own a car, and there are no homeless shelters set up where I live and I don't have any friends or family whose places I can stay at either. I'm a loner in life. So the only option is for me to sleep in a tent somewhere

Worse case scenario if I have to I will place my baby in foster care so my baby doesn't have to live that way.

Sorry you're going through this, that's pretty rough. I don't know a lot about foster care, but I might say you should go ahead and place the baby there anyway, as hopefully a temporary situation. There's no telling how long you'll be on the streets or what could happen out there, so definitely protect the baby first by putting it in foster care.

If a tent is the best option you have, it's still better than having nothing at all. Hopefully your situation can turn around soon and you get the help you need to find a decent home.

Thank you. I'm thinking it's best as well

Don't forget that for yourself you can always try seeing whatever churches out there could help. I'm not a fan of churches, but sometimes they do offer some kind of aid or outreach you might be able to use.

You don't take a baby onto the streets simple as that. Hand it over to foster care.

Go to a local church. Most have resources and can help out
