Out of all the child characters only one of them even has a father in their life (and even then he doesn’t have a mom it seems). Jancey was also a teen pregnancy and is raised by her grandmother instead of her parents

This may depend on your definition. Poverty is depicted throughout the film and while the kids are mostly sheltered from the reality of the situation, they generally run wild and unsupervised. One of the characters scams tourists with the help of her kid. In a later scene, we learn that she is resorting to prostitution in the next room while her kid is taking a bath and listening to music, unaware. At the end of the film, a child is taken away by protective services.

One of the characters begins resorting to prostitution and steals Disneyworld passes from one of her customers. When he comes to demand them back, the property manager convinces him to leave by offering to call the police to file a report. During the course of this exchange, the property manager points out that the passes must have been for the man's wife and kids.

It’s Florida but the only major source of water shots are pools (maybe also a very small shallow creek but I’m not sure if that’s enough to fully count), probably because Orlando is in central Florida so contrary to popular misconception there are no beaches in that area

The film is an independent film so it does a lot of shaky camera work when a character is running, or walking in a dramatic way.
