tv scrounging`

[jaberwocky]

why is that that every time you put tv on there are people scrounging.if it's not for africa(who wants to eat when you're confronted with starving africans) then we have the chance to ADOPT a jaguar.for cash of course.now we have the salvation army wanting £19.dont these people know things are expensive enough without giving money away it's getting ridiculous.

When I was at school we sold pictures of kids in booklets called 'Sunny Smiles' to help starving kids in some poor nation. That was around fifty years ago now yet there are still millions of starving kids - why do these people keep having them if they can't afford to feed them or themselves? Or if they live in countries where there are droughts or famines etc - I would not want to bring a child into the world if I was in that situation.
