The family just lost their home fairly recently. At some point, they probably had their shit together, even with 5 kids, so saying this statement now is dumb.

not really. They probably would not be homeless if they had only 1 or no kids.

is there even a dance floor on the golf course? or did all of you play 18 holes in the dark at prom?

Ya. There is a dining/meeting area for tournaments and clubs, they just got rid of all of the chairs and tables. There was only ~60 people in my graduating class so we didn't need much room.

They also probably wouldn't have been homeless if someone had checked their debt to income ratio before they were approved for a home loan.

Chances are, they wouldn't have been able to afford the home they lived in and would be content in a rental for the last x number of years.
