This is most likely because they believe that said homeless people -in some way- forced themselves into their current position, and that they are not willing to work to get out of it. It may also be because they see no reason for them to be homeless and/or loitering on the streets because, especially in Canada, there are a multitude of shelters for them to go to, and therefore parents can find little sympathy for the beggars.
Answer:
d. Symbols generally have either an exclusively positive or negative meaning.
Explanation:
The term symbol, originating in the Greek symbolon, designates a type of sign in which the signifier (concrete reality) represents something abstract (religions, nations, amounts of time or matter, etc.) by virtue of convention, similarity or semantic contiguity (as in the case of the cross that represents Christianity, because it is a part of the whole that is the image of the dead Christ). Charles Sanders Pierce has developed a general classification of signs. As a sign, "symbol" is always something that represents something else (to someone).
The "symbol" is an essential element in the communication process, being widespread in everyday life and in the most varied aspects of human knowledge. Although there are symbols that are internationally recognized, others are only understood within a particular group or context (religious, cultural, etc.), it can also be an object that replaces, represents, or suggests something.
<em>African slavery was introduced to the Americans early on because of the needs of the country for laborers (for their farms). During these times, countries like France and Great Britain are in the country running different plantations. Americans are fighting them off, and some who they got caught in the warring times and some Africans whom they kidnapped from their homes were pushed to work for them in exchange for foods and accommodations. African slavery started in the 17th centuries and ended in 1863 when Abraham Lincoln made a proclamation of freeing all slaves in United States.</em>
