Rudnicki writes this article in 2013, but refers back to 2002. The average age of the homeless orphan is 12.5 years. They spend an average of 18 weeks on the streets. The three main causes for orphan homelessness were: '1) “drunken parents”; 2) “lack of one or both parents”;
and 3) “physical abuse.” ' Most Russian attribute the reasons for this upheaval of society to economic factors, but the problem is much more complex. I would add a lack of national pride, the cultural dimension of uncertainty avoidance, and the shift away from a cradle-to-grave system. I will elaborate on those in the next post.
