which is it? do people with children get your sympathy or do they just fuck off and die like you suggest? or is it that you have sympathy but you just don't care enough to do anything about it? or, is it that there are specific people with children you are willing to help but other people's children can all starve to death?

None of the above. I have sympathy for children, not their parents. I would help a child, not their parents. Get it?


you would help a child, but you don't want to provide money to see they get help from anyone or anything else. and let's not help the parents raise those children, because that might encourage the kids to grow up well rather than in poverty. i think that about sums it up?
